I don't understand what a dubby grun is.
But they are made mainly for walkers because of the damp and muddy ground. Cyclists are allowed to ride on some of them.

Muddy ground it means . So we are both right ️

But the old bike is killing me ..... Literally. Today, the motor hooked up badly when I dropped off a big tree root, hurtling me over the bars. Thankfully I'm a really good at controlling my falls, and I tucked and rolled, doing no damage other than creases in my helmet.

It's so hard going from a really capable EMTB to an older one with much less capability. I just keep forgetting the bikes limits.

Not sure about the Tuck but I can eat plenty Rolls

Should that be Slopwell rather than Chopwell?

Also what is he doing behind the tree? A crafty wee wee, perhaps? Just looking where his arm/hand is...

So if it's a bloke I'm a wee bit concerned , sitting down to pee with his trousers still on .

Summit of the Binhill today about seven miles from my house. From the top I can see probably thirty different wind farms , so why is my electric so dear.

That is what the Yanks call a garage!

Took the bike for a quick spin to bed the new brakes in. Seemed to work well happy days

Vigeland Sculptures in Frogner Park, Oslo, Norway - Europe's Most Controversial Sculpture Installation — Adventurous Travels | Adventure Travel | Best Beaches | Off the Beaten Path | Best Countries | Best Mountains Treks

The Frogner Park in Oslo is a perfect place for those who seek for shelter from a busy, modern city. But it wouldn't be world famous if it were just an ordinary park with trees, alleys and lawns. Within its boundaries, the Frogner Park holds the controversial sculpture installation by Gustav Vigelan

Did you ride across those stepping stones and the tree?

I'd be very impressed!

Got as far as the tree but my skill level failed at that point

Humford woods
You can peddle from Bedlington station through the woods
All the way to Hartford hall nice little peddle for me from halfway
Pat the dam it gets a bit rougher and sloppier
But a nice ride all the same if a little short

Palm Canyon Epic. It starts up in the clouds behind us in the picture. It's about 25 miles of mostly black diamond single track winding through the wilderness inhabited by big horn sheep, rattle snakes, needle sharp jumping cactus, hostile Indians (I'm not kidding), and ending in Palm Springs where all the fancy pants celebrities play golf and work on their tans while lounging by the pool.

That ride has been on my to do list for a while. How was it?

You missed the word “Happy” out between 3 and old…….

It's GRRRRREAT. Hella fun. The scenery is magnificent, and the trail is in good condition. After the rain, it's spectacular. And the wildflowers will start blooming soon. You'll be in the wilderness and there's some exposure, so it's for riders with a bit of experience. Bring a tube, tools, nutrition, and water. It's a long walk out and no one is coming to save you. I want to hit it at least one more time before it gets hot.

After a stressful day in the Yorkshire Dales with bike issues but managed to navigate Bunton Hush in one piece I decided somewhat late on yesterday afternoon to head for the hills to test bike repair only to be struck down with Acute severe Rioja Fever so decided to peddle along the coast from mine to Amble. Good choice as the beach’s looked stunning in early morning sunshine.
QE II Park north of Ashington, a reclaimed slurry pit from the defunct
Colliery.

Here’s one for our Southern Hemisphere members…..a Eucalyptus Grove outside Woodhorn Village. Apparently this was planted to provide a source of oil for company that closed years ago.
The views along the coast to Coquet Island and Amble were stunning.

And proof spring is here…..
Frogspawn.
A nice 30 mile round trip. A great way to start the day.

FFS one day I’ll get a post right
