Love that place. I spent large chunks of my youth throwing myself off Col de Forclaz. cloud9

The hill I'm referring to is called Sullington Lane Buster which is good when dry and an absolute st (literally) when damp wink

Doable but bloody hard work on a bad day wink

Thanks, the frame is a bit shabby in places but new tyres and tape was all that was needed.

Took it for a 7 mile run yesterday and bars are not comfortable as I'm used to sitting on the hoods and I the left pedal needs some attention.

It's a different beast to my carbon bike that's for sure smile

65 mile White Road Classic on Sunday. 18 miles were off road sections with 1400m of climbing. It was the hardest ride I've done this year but also really rewarding.

Not the most impressive pic but I had a huge grin as I took it, this was my first ride on my new bike with new wheels. I have been out of action since March after an operation and physio just gave me the go ahead to go for a short easy spin i.e. 2 or 3 miles. 30kms later I was shattered!!
First time on 28mm tyres as well and they are a bloody revelation, can't see me ever going back to 25 or 23, they felt quick enough but soak up so much road buzz.
Your mates C60 is gert lush cloud9
Yeah it is absolutely stunning, looks even better in the flesh where you can appreciate all the details, I am a little bit jealous smile
Although he spoilt it with fishing tackle groupset ;-)

Cotswold Ride by Lewis Craik, on Flickr
I had my first "big" ride on my Four - 35km around the Cotswolds, almost all of it off road. With some bridleways being better kept than my lawn:

And to complete a Trilogy of Friday Evening Mountain Bikers, a lonely lap of Follow the Dog and the Monkey Trail in Cannock Chase. Only saw about 8 other bikers, lovely!

Sounds ideal! I love getting up to Cannock Chase on a summer evening, but it usually means taking the afternoon off work for me.

I had a much gentler ride this afternoon - 2 laps of a local reservoir with my son on the back, whilst my wife ran one lap:
