The more I think about yesterday, the more I want to do it again. Looking at thses guys though, I think a bit more protection than just a helmet might be in order for me.

If you want to see someone riding it well check out this video, and it’s actually dry!

Mental. As it’s the end of the ride I was doing, the last few times I’ve taken the scenic road back down into Castleton, thought I’d give CD a go today as it was nice weather. Almost had a few falls, I managed to escape with one jump off into a nettle bush and a near over handlebars stop. Crucially made it past a huge group of school kids without falling off. My chain had come off when I got to the bottom so I’m calling it a draw. Cheers
