Day Two

An off road ride along the coast near where I live. It doesnt have many proper hills, just lots of short sharp up and downs, a bit like the South Downs. Lots of singletrack, some rocky bits, some slidy bits, just fun basically.  I did return the dull but hard way just to get a decent sized hill in the legs.

The bike - Orange P7 with lots of aging parts that are going to be replaced bit by bit. First thing to go are the Pace forks, fantastic when they work, but this isnt very often nowadays. Going to get some Rockshox Sektors on, the local shop quoted a very good price, even cheaper than CRC, the exchange rate must be mental at the moment.

Weather - Bloody cold this morning, had to scrape ice of the car windows. But has got gradually warmer over the day, finished the ride in short sleeves, not bad for December.

Now, time to get a recovery beer and watch sunderland beat Fulham.
