    Was anyone else down in Cheshire on Sunday? The weather was incredible! It was like summer!

    You have to have a Facebook account. :(

    Could you not link to a few of the more interesting ones, Adam?

    Spot on.

    Nice ride out, and up from the river valley below, over the top of the hill through the village - the photo was taken half way up - then back down the other side. Roads very quiet and motorists all very cyclist friendly.

    Unless I'm very much mistaken it's either Bristol High Street or St. Cirq Lapopie.

    Oh. Beaten to it.

    Tourmalet in bad weather. A bit nippy to say the least...

    And then on the Aspin about 2 hours later after the storm had passed.

    You can just make out the bike and the backpack!

    Western Crete, Mountain biked from Kissamos along the coastal highway to Kolymbari and up the Rodopos peninsula. Long boulder track descent down to this cove - Diktyna. Had place to myself for the afternoon before tackling the ascent.

    HonestAl - those are amazing! What camera are you using?

    Gonna ressurect this thread. My cameraphone recently died in a downpour, but here's some recent stuff. Manchester riders - recognise any of these locations?

    This was taken just as a sleet storm was swirling up around me on the summit of the Cime de la Bonnette. It was a cold and sketchy descent off it.

    Sorry I've no photos to post. I just wanted to say what a fantastic thread. I can't wait to get back out on the bike.

    This year I'll be taking the camera with me.

    :D
