Funny how many more MTB's come out at this time of year

Is this the River Beaulieu by any chance, on the trail between Beaulieu and Bucklers Hard?

Yes, exactly that. Its not suitable for bikes, apparently.

I thought I recognised it. Lovely spot.

Always worth a stop in at Steph's Kitchen at the garden centre if ever in the vicinity of Beaulieu...

Normally stop at the Bakehouse, Stephs kitchen is super slow service.

Bit windy this weekend....



No going over this one this morning, turn round and go the long way...
(got off on friday night to push a fallen tree out of the path, stepped in a fking great muddy puddle. Overshoes are great with moisture/ crap from above but not from below. Squelchy ride home.)

Last Wednesday...

...very bright moon last week.

Yesterday...

...very apt house name - right at the top of a hill, very open, and very, very windy.

Today...

...I wonder what the wind speed limit is for lifting a 20ft ISO container under one of these?


...container released, positioning for another lift.


...a field of what appeared to be Swede, or possibly Turnip.

Apologies for grainy images. A combination of poor light and maximum zoom conspired to limit the quality of the pictures. I had a welcome breather watching the Chinook practice underslung load lifting while riding alongside RAF Odiham on a quiet single track road. Most impressive.

Yesterday A fellow Ph'er parked next to me at Haldon in their Landy.



Really enjoyable ride, in the dark was good fun. I passed the 1000 mile mark for the year which was good too!

"Photos From Today's Thursday's and Friday's Rides"


Leith Hill just visible in the distance...


Beautifully restored TR6 outside a garage near Chiddingfold...


After seeing it mentioned in so many cycling forums, I had my first taste of Leffe. I just had one bottle, in case I didn't like it. Am I doing this right?

(6.6% ABV, by the way. That's pretty strong for a beer. So it was very pleasing, and quite a surprise, to wake up with a completely clear head in the morning, and to have felt completely sober too even after doing the full bottle. To put that into context, my weekly alcohol consumption is about zero units three weeks in the month, and usually extends no further than a pint of cider on the fourth.)

I'll post some photos later but had a great ride today, about 50km , 5oC but no wind, clear sky, absolutely perfect. I live close to the alps so there's plenty of good cycle tracks. Came home, hot shower cracked open a bottle of wine and thought what a wonderful day! The bike (Specialzed SJ 29ner) is perfect for the trails. Only thing that annoys a little are the guys on their E-bikes thinking they're exercising - and they are younger than me!,

I'm a fair weather only rider. So when I saw dry Tarmac I was straight out. Regretted this decision after I'd committed to a particularly muddy road with little alternative apart from turning back. Maybe I should invest in mudguards ha.
