Well, I don“t know how far up North @Mcharza is but he might be lucky to have daylight 24/7.

You may be right he's way up there

That's true, you can ride almost hole day and it might get darker after 23:00.
But next Monday starts my annual bike trip to the Alps, so I'm going to the dark side

Gravity Card is the King!

Yes I worked in Norway quite a lot it was strange in summer. Saying that we only get 4 hours darkness in North of Scotland. But payback time in winter

That last picture looks very sci-fi, like somewhere Jabba the Hut might live.

Great ride in the Cheviot Hills yesterday with @The EMF ( Wayne..pictured) ..on our border raid

into Scotland .
Blue skies suggest dry& dusty ground conditions ..and they were almost bone dry ..but this also disguises the fact that it was very windy & clucking ffffreezing with a hail stone shower late in the ride confirming this ..
The descents though were spectacular ..especially the last two off Black Braes & the drop to the White bridge at Slymefoot ..where 200 years ago stood a " pub" for the drovers to refresh themselves ( long gone) ..but the pint in the newly refurbished Rose & Thistle in Alwinton courtesy of my mate was very welcome a short while later..cheers

Just as well we went when we did then

 

[The EMF]

It can’t add anything to @The Hodge ride description only to note that the Cheviots (which ever side of the border we ride) never fail to impress. On this thread there are fantastic pics from around the world, but these hills crossing England and Scotland have a unique majesty all of their own.
These pics do not really show the steepness of the decents and give a very false impression of the weather conditions……felt like a late autumn ride than a summer one……..

Two from this morning ride West Dartmoor.

 

[Armor11]

I was in revelstoke and often went do thru the ok(rock oven, penticton/knuckleduster/code4), westbank(powers,smith), kelowna(gillard, cox,vapour), vernon trails(ss pass for yrs), the loops(mainly just the classic and sunpeaks). Im in NB now for a bit. I miss revy and having the OK on my doorstep. Crazy good there and sooo many trails and so diverse from semi arrid desert to sup tropical old growth forests and huge vert. I've never ridden naramata/3 blind mice area and that Emtb festival looks like itll be really really good.
Where are you?

Located in Keremeos, a small village just south of Penticton. So much great riding around here. And ya, when you are back in the area you definitely have to ride Mice! I used to live in Kamloops but never rode when I lived there (snowboard at Peaks as much as I could though). Work there often still so I always bring my bike as one of my workmates from the area knows the Loops like the back of his hand. Broken my collarbone at KalPark (vernon) last year, but still love the park. I work all over the Ok area, Osoyoos to Kamloops and everywhere in between. My bike is always in my work truck and ready to ride! Cheers
