    So...

    Having had a fairly shitty week ('scuse my French) I decided to go for a ride today.

    Been out for a couple hours, abit off road but mostly on (would post a pic but things got muddy and don't want to upset anyone!).

    Currently sat up at Newlands corner feeling much better than I've done all week! A good ride is all we need to make things seem a bit better!

    So let's all get out there and muddy our bikes up...and obviously then clean them with every ounce of strength left in us!

    Ride safe everyone from a happy biker today!

    Hi Matt and well done - often all it takes is a good ride out and the world looks a better place.




    PS If you have a bike that is :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

    Sounds great, wish I could have got out and blown away the grey cloud that is work.

    Been sunny all day, now clouding over, just looked at weather report - rain coming in by the time I get home and could get the bike out

    :(:(:(:(:(

    Ah well, Scottish Bike show tomorrow !!! :):):):):)

    Nice one Matt! I was looking longingly at the blue skies and wishing I was out there but my wife had other ideas£

    Looking forward to getting out on the bike this weekend for the first proper ride of the year.

    Yes and it's time I did it too as I just seem to commute only in the last few months.

    I've been the same...commuting a lot but forgetting why I started riding. It was a great feeling going out without having to be somewhere!

    Fingers crossed the weather is only getting better now! My bike won't be clean for months!!

    Out around Dorking way...there's a few easy green lanes out there. Although on Friday I was out near Dunsfold and saw a little track so decided to take that! Was going fine until it was blocked by a tree and I had to do a ridiculously narrow u-turn!!
