Well after a weekend of rain, rain and more rain, this morning I finally got a dry spell while I cracked a 4 miler over the moors. The weather was still blustery but very mild. This mild spell looks set to continue into the week. Saturday morning saw myself and a group of 4 out on a moorland bike skills ride. The guys did extremely well given the fact it was blowing a 'hooly' and also pouring down most of the time. This made for some very slippery terrain underneath our wheels and the skill of weighting and unweighting was easily visible whilst attempting some of the inclines to stop the back wheel from slipping. All in all a good morning and the bacon butties and mug of tea were very much enjoyed afterwards. I would have taken some photographs but I think the camera would have got a good soaking.
I am taking another bike skills morning on the 30th October and organising new dates for 2012 just call or drop me an email to book.
