MacRetro chat and rides thread

Thinking of heading deep into the Shire on Saturday to Pitfichie, though last weekend there was still a bit of snow and ice on the trails apparently.
Have to say I'm a bit bored of the usual local spots, not that they're bad, but it'll be nice to ride somewhere different for a change!

So now we’re allowed to travel again, where’s everyone riding this weekend?
My money’s on OCP still heading up Benarty

With all the guid stuff right on my doorstep, Kelty Wids, Lomonds, Falkland and lest I forget Benarty, why travel?

I've just seen some NOS XTR M900 shifters/levers... for £250!! And folk are agreeing it's a great price!... madness.
It's cheaper to buy modern!
