    im glad i was using my flat pedals as i came off on an iced short steep descent, thankfully had my overshoes in my back pockets as i landed on my lower back. decided to ride to the forest tho when leaving the wind was against me most of the way home.
  • My first ride out on a 'proper' mountain bike since I bought my Cube Attention a while ago :P

    Went from South Manchester to the Roman Lakes:

    Here's a fairly slow-paced, 2-wheels-on-the-ground video from the weekend... I just like it for its flow

    It's probably not all that clear what this is, unless you know what you're looking for. You know snow angels? This is a snow biker

    Then, we went to the reservoir and discovered that they've been lowering the water level for flood prevention once the snow melts, and that as it's receeded, it's left huge sheets of 6 inch thick ice all around the shore, which you can walk on (not over water!) So, we made Art:

    If anyone is riding in the pentlands up at Harlaw, please check and see if it's still there :lol: It's on the shore near the visitor's centre.
