Cheers for the link Steve, nice to know (although as sad a story as it is) what the plaque is for. Not today, but just spotted us on Google Streetview at the top of Alpe D'Huez

Spent the day up and around the Wrekin in Telford yesterday.
Not the best day for it - really misty/foggy and somewhat slippy and muddy!
A great day though and a climb of 1000ft - the descent was fun! the single track around the base was good fun too despite the mud.
I was up there last night in the dark, admittedly I can get to the bottom with a 10mins ride from home. Not the nicest conditions at the moment and always a slog to the top!Not the best day for it - really misty/foggy and somewhat slippy and muddy!

Photos from the other day. Bloody hard work out there now with most of the forest tracks now turning to bogs!

Col D'Tourmalet and Hautacam descents
Its not a picture, and wasn't today. But I've only just edited my GoPro footage from a September Pyrenees trip, and think it's come out ok.
The descent down Hautacam put me in the top 2% down there on Strava (out of 3000 odd riders). Not bad considering I wasn't pushing too hard!

Only have a road bike.
Have wanted to ride a well known local off-road trail for a while.
Bought the cheapest reasonable mountain bike in my size off gumtree.
Few quid in parts and a bit of elbow grease.
Went and did it this morning. Most fun I've had on a bike in a while for the price of a round of drinks!
