Hi guys
Speyside way sounds like a great plan Brian. I am up for mid July onwards
Here are a few pics from Saturday evenings ride on the Pugsley. It was a few hours round the coast trying to link up a few local sections and then up around the cliffs on the north eastern side of Dunnett Head.
Had sorted a couple of things on the Pugsley redone the bearings in the rear hub (SS).
It was pretty rubbish weather being overcast and very cool breeze. Thankfully it got better as the evening went on and while still windy the cloud cover blew away to expose a warming sun. Was out until about 8.30pm.
The ride was a mixture of coastal singletrack, rocky shale type track, though no beach riding, and then a short bit of road and then singletrack sheep type trails over the open heather ground up on Dunnett Head.
A nice casual ride on my own, so no rushing
Just thought I'd share and hope evryone else had a good one as well.
Jimo your ride in the Enduro sounded like good fun, hard, but fun.

Although not quite finished yet, I finally got the Zaskar running yesterday in its latest guise, and was looking forward all day today to taking it out for a run. Set off just after 5pm for a local FC trail just behind my house, with strict instructions to be back for 6.30. No bother - I know the loop well, and it takes just over an hour. The first section is a straight climb to 300m, bike felt great, sun beating down, I was a happy man. Then, about half way down the first descent, I end up with a puncture, an hour and a half's walk home with the midges (pushing up the hill I just came down), and dinner in the dog.
The long push home:

Yes yes yes, hindsight is a great thing. I was more worried that I had left my allan keys since this was a first outing.velofrog":9ap5iaag said:
