Coupe De Monde, Avoriaz


This is the view from about 200 metres down the Coupe De Monde, once of my favourite views from the entire of the Portes Du Soleil.

A good little adventure to Grizedale Pike


Tony and me decided to go on an adventure, without a map or really any idea of where we were going...and it worked out pretty well in all honesty...

An impulse evening ride...

Driving up through the Lake District (which officially has only 1 lake in the entire district) after a family doo down in Hawkshead I decided at 40 that I wanted to go for a bike ride in the lakes. I sent the text, got replies, picked them up and then by 7pm we were parked up and peddling up Askham Fell! Living in Carlisle is amazing! We got a little lost... but that doesn't distract from the awesome sunset we witnessed! Here are a few photos...

Newcastleton in the rain


Working from home allows you to get out and do stuff when there isn't much happening, making the most of the quiet trails and doing the work you needed to do when you get back! Although, as we found out, the quick 3 hour ride turned into a morning and an afternoon after we had to take Meyer to the hospital due to a split hand...5 stiches and 4 injections later he was out and fine! He was even wearing gloves...but we had only managed about a mile of the trail before having to head home. Hopefully he will heal quickly and get back on the bike!

Whinlatter Jackrabbitt Ride

We have been organising group rides for the last few years, to try and get people interested in mountain biking, and the last 2 we ran have been absolute belters. 16 or 17 people turned up to Whinlatter near Keswick on the 10th July 2011 and here is how it went down!
