    Everything in moderation ... except beer
    Beer in moderation ... is a waste of beer

    If riding an XC race bike is like touching the trail,
    then riding a rigid singlespeed is like licking it
    ... or being punched by it, depending on the day

    Innerleithen I think. And probably a local ride just to get the legs spinning.

    Coombe bashing in the Quantocks. Then a BBQ at Rams Coombe if not packed out
  • Planning on going to the Whitby area in motorhome (if we can find a free site). Intend a day at Dalby on Good Friday (en-route) then a few hilly early morning rides the rest of the weekend, plus a bit of walking and drinking.

    To ride as much as possible to make up for a month off the bike! Most likely just local stuff.

    Off to Whitby in the van - but not till after the stupidly busy weekend; it's great having 2 weeks off :D:D

    Planning on the moors as usual and Dalby maybe :D
    If every action has an equal and opposite reaction does that mean I will be eaten by a fly?
