Pic of the Day

Some clouds rolled in tonight to enhance our sunset.

Yup. We already have super glowy sunsets without clouds, but add some clouds and it becomes spectacular.

Not my pic but a friend captured this one at Hawes yesterday.

I was pushed for time yesterday as I had to pick my daughter up at the bus station, so just had a quick spin around the local woods and messed around on the mini slabs.

Got out fairly early this morning to ride the Borrowdale Bash, the trails were deserted, didn’t see another rider on the whole loop. There was only signs of life once you got off the bottom of Catbells and were heading back in to Keswick.
The Bontrager tyres that the Rail came with are rubbish, absolutely no grip on rocks at all, it’s a shame I didn’t get time to fit the Kryptotals I’d bought before we came away.

Did that a few weeks ago but on a busy, sunny day. Saw probably ~20 MTBers out with 75% analogue. Some decidedly hairy sections descending into Rosthwaite !

Great pics! Do you know why there is barbed wire wrapped around the posts?

Wild guess to stop folk climbing or sitting on it

Wild guess to stop folk climbing or sitting on it

My first guess was to avoid people hugging these to hard

Mostly for avoid that cows tear it off by scratching on it

It's annoying but a couple of punctures a year are to be expected, luckily it didn't happen in the middle of nowhere.
Will be fixed tomorrow with a new tube

Try fix it with a motorcycle plug (tubless - it looks like a mashroom).
Glue the round part inside, pull the plug and cut it. Upu should be able to use UST again

Any PGA Tour fan knows TPC Scottsdale. I live literally next door to the venue; and my 85 year old father still WALKS 4 rounds of golf a week, so I went over there and grabbed a Father’s Day gift for him.
It feels like 105° (40.5 C) but a few brave souls are still out there playing. I guess the discounted summer rates make it worth it?
