Great ride today without all you lazy barstewards who missed out. Lovely dry, fairly mild day, with the trails a lot drier than expected.
Couple of nice new retrobikes on their first outing.

Hawmaw's £20 Nishiki.

And Jimo's State of the (early 90's) art Proflex.

Bit worrying at one point as we were being caught uphill by a dad and two young kids. Could see the wee girls pink helmet getting closer and closer.
Only one low speed crash as Jimo finally ran out of talent (well, grip) on a rocky chute I wasn't even contemplating attempting on my modern B+ tyred bike.

Cliff trail was as awesome as ever and worth the trip for that section alone.

Hope everyone tries to get out for even a wee spin before the holiday season is over. See you all next year.

Re:

Just kidding!! It was great :mrgreen:

Some nice trails on the second half of the ride especially.
Was good to drag out the retro (bikes and riders) for a change too.
