This is from yesterdays ride, but only posted today as I had to go to A&E after due to a dog bite.

Quick stop at the top of plant hill woods by Lewis Craik, on Flickr

I usually ride around the edge of this wood, but as the path was particularly muddy I decided to ride up the hill into the middle of the wood and down the other side, well worth the extra effort!

Nice ride on the Exe Estuary trails this morning.

Just a shame that so many road cyclists ride side by side virtually blocking the path until the very last second where they eventually pull in, avoiding a collision. Most of them look fking miserable too, like they are being forced to ride.

I'm not a hard guy but I'm fairly weather hardened... however. You know it's time to turn for home when you've been on your arse on an icy climb, you can feel your bike moving around underneath you as you're pedalling. You can't feel your toes and you have frost forming on your gloves, scarf and jacket!!!

Sunrise was nice though...

I did a couple of rides around Brechfa Forest in Carmarthenshire on Friday and Saturday. Mixof green, blue and red. Shortish rides but good climbing, 3200 ft in 20 miles.

I try and avoid the trail when I head out to & from Lympstone to Dartmoor for that very reason, it's not just roadies, pedestrians are just as bad, in fact I had a trail rage incident last summer when 2 blokes old enough to know better blocked my path when I was out running on the trail and were just looking for a confrontation.

Welcome to the Black Forest (Schwarzwaldhochstrasse, Mummelsee, a week ago).
There were actually people carrying snowboards crossing the street. That was a bit weird... xmas

Light dusting of snow over the higher parts of the Chilterns this morning, flipping chilly!



Wish I'd put tights on, that said it wasn't too bad once my legs went numb!!!!
