Today's Ride

We could use some of that sun ^ It'd been over a week since I'd been on a bike thanks to incessant wind over 20mph. That's just too sketchy around here. Then there's the rain...

...but yesterday afternoon it died right down and there was no way I was going to miss the opportunity. 33 miles in the bag around the peninsula. St Ives was quieter 👍

Yeah the wind is seemingly endless down here sometime. My new shed build has been on hold for the last three bloody weeks!

In the morning. Heading to the forest. Followed by a nice winding uphill section to the top, about 500ms of elevation on good forest roads.

Met on the way up some nice people, guided them down on trails. Crazy ride, everybody enjoyed it. Steep and rocky parts occured...Could have been used some eyeball stabilisers, they were bouncing like hell..

Not used by bikers, only motocross trail, i guess i'm the only biker on this one.
Heading down to the upper entrance of a small canyon, such a special atmosphere here.

Got home after sunset.
Wet leaves on singletrack sections in the bushes were very slippery, riding was real fun.
