looks good, miss that sort of scenery. Love seeing people’s pics here of their rides over moors too - Australia doesn’t do Dartmoor!
I’ve already put a 11-32 cassette and matching long cage mech on it to make the gearing more off road friendly. I may go 1x at some point, with a MTB rear mech and wide range cassette. I think a company called Wolf do a converter to alter the cable pull so a MTB mech will work with the STIs. More aggressive tyres are on the menu too.
I’m really enjoying riding it, feels like an old school 90s MTB off road. It doesn’t feel too slow on the road either, by no means best bike fast, but you don’t feel held back by it.

I have used an 11-40 cassette with a medium/long cage 105 mech and it works a treat. I used a wolf tooth road link, easy to fit and remove, ie 2 screws, and not expensive. The big appeal for me was being easy to revert back to standard.I’m really enjoying riding it, feels like an old school 90s MTB off road.

Pushing on with my personal challenge of 10,000 m of climbing for the month, but with 2,200 m and 5 days to go I wanted to get a chunk out of the way today. The Concrete Killers segment is 102m so, just 22 repeats will see me there 
Managed 10 climbs today, not many people around to hear me chatting to the cows
This cutie seems at home among the bovines

First ride back after 6 weeks off with a knee injury - so snowy/icy trails weren't ideal...
My knee held up, it isn't 100% fixed, but should be OK for putting in some base miles. It was so good to get back out though.
