First Wednesday ride and it was bliss. The low sunlight over the reservoir reminded me how good it is to get out in the week, so bring on the long summer (clocks change this weekend, woohoo!). Just me and Hilton headed out, easy climbing, with me struggling on the steep climbs as usual, and then once at the foot of charity lane, the steady long climbs are a piece of piss! At the top of charity, we were glad to see almost all the snow gone from the weekend, phew! SO we flew down, loving it, pushing the turns and finding the lines, also got soaked, but pushed back up for some top snaps. Then down "Chris's trail". The beast really does chew that shit up big time! Quiet night, so we had the place to ourselves. Raced back down the bridleway, had a bit of a race with Hilton, we both then nearly lost the back ends of the bikes going full pelt, heart in mouth, but buzzing off it!

"You look like you're enjoying that" a bloke said, DAMN right!

Top night, top riding, top memories.

BTW, have I mentioned how much I love my new bike ;P
