Sunday riding photos

willy b

Well on sunday i thought i'd photograph instead of ride, partly due to the fact most my riding gear is at uni, and i was at home lol :roll:

Some brilliant trails, and i just can't wait for them to dry out, be super fast then!

Isn't there a rotor missing from 18?

Good set of shots there: 8,10 and 12 stand out for me. I really like seeing photos from other people's rides. Perhaps a new sub-division just for pics should be created? Or should we utilize the Rides section to greater effect?

I can only manage a maximum of 2 outings a week if I'm lucky at the mo, so it's cool to see others out. I too cannot wait until my local trails have dried up - been out building a few new lines which I'm dying to have a proper rag down without greasy off-camber roots ruining my day.

Splasher

Of course you mean except they vary hugely in power dependant on the conditions, put heat into a tempered safety critical component, and use the mud you've just ridden through to grind your rim up. :roll:

Ave it. Proper rider, makes a nice change from flash harrys.

Some good pics there mate, i went riding in wharncliff woods in sheff a few weeks back, you ever been there? Some really nice trails and even a bit of that crazy North Shaw stuff!!

12 is awesome.

Nice shoes man, what are they - my flatties just fell apart and I need to get summit new.

ps wish I was still at uni

willy b

Cheers for the comments there folks!
Think my brother does want to put a rear disc on, but due to funds and what not...Vees in the winter = horriable. Summer = little less horriable. But splasher as you said, soon as they get wet, not real point to them lol.

The trails are brilliant there, but Morty i totally agree, roots are the cause of all evil, on one jump on the day the landing is near a section of roots, one time my brother came down, landed a little on the roots, off he goes lol :roll: Can't wait to go down them when they are dry, be stupidly fast :shock:

Pics from other people's rides are cool, i agree!

As for the shoes, they are my old ones, there about 3/4 years old now, and i think they are from just when Animal started making shoes, don't really know though!

Wharncliffe woods are only about 15 minutes from where i am at uni, but as of yt i havn't been there, well not for a couple of years now. I just mainly ride in the Peaks, i can't get enough of the Peaks lol

Ps. There are more from other rides on my website, see it through my profile :roll: *shamless plug*

2, 16 and 17 are my favourites as this is the type of terrain I like to ride (esp this time of year) also 5 because I like the idea of taking the alternative route as opposed to the easy fireroad down to the left of the piccy.

Ride on (and get more piccies to look at)

P.S is that Ryan Leach on Piccy Number 8? (Head Swells)

willy b
