Ride Report – 16 Nov 2014 – Leaf litter louts
As we know, we’re riding in that AONB known as ‘The Slurry Hills’, and today it lived up to its name. The trails were typical of this time of year.
Remembrance day mud
After this weeks bursts of solid rain it was a relief to see a dry Sunday morning and 7 Moles drag themselves out of bed and make the effort to get up to Bocketts car park for what was to be an expedition into the Surrey Hills with mud avoidance high on the menu!
Ride Report – Sunday 2nd November – Big Al’s blow-out
Despite the dire forecast, assembled at Bocketts were Big Al, Jonesy, ‘Old’ Karl, Elliot, Colin and myself. A morning on our backsides awaited!
Ride Report – Wed 22nd October – A ‘Wet and Dry’ night ride
The trails were dry, but it was definitely ‘a wet ride’ as we ended up in The Anchor for a few beers. A good turn-out for a Wednesday evening, with seven of us at the start to watch Jonesy faffing about with yet another flat, he’ll soon learn and go tubeless.
Ride Report – Sunday 12th October 2014 – First Mud
For this ride report I would like to tell it in the form of a dance.
Ride report – 05/10/14 – Dry trails are still out there
How much longer can it continue? Well there is mud out there now but not as much as there could be, next week looks like it’s the end though…
Ride report: Sunday 28 September – bit of an epic
Phew, that was a big one! 32 miles for a Sunday ride was a pretty decent effort, and had a few of us flagging by the end of the ride. I said on the forum Saturday night I thought it was a tad ambitious, but nothing ventured, nothing gained eh?!
Ride report: Sunday 21 September- Western Front
A stack on Trouble in Paradise, a stack on No Name and a stack on Rip van Winkle, but no injuries!
Ride report: Sunday 14 September – Dusty gnarr
The weather continues dry, giving us the chance to take our pick of trails. Our referendum voted Yes for Holmbury!
Ride report – Sunday 31 August – the last day of summer?
Sunday saw us heading over to sample some North Downs trails, in the course of which we racked up around 26 miles and plenty of juicy trails
Ride Report – Sunday 24th August – A Two Karl ride
A storm was predicted for the Bank Holiday and rain duly arrived on Monday. Thank goodness we were out on Sunday!
Ride report: Sunday 17 August – North Downs
North Downs. Doesn’t sound like much really, does it? Yet somehow today we managed to squeeze in a variety of freshly uncovered trails, about 28 miles and 2800 feet of climbing (and, obviously, descending!). All in all quite a lot packed into a ride which never took us further than Shere then.
