Re: Bivvy a month 2022
Went out after work with the boy Landslide. Met at Queen Victoria where I ate the first half of my dinner that I packed out of the office so I didn't need to carry a bunch of plastic into the peak. The Bear was heard to mutter why he was out *with me* to which I suggested, because he was kind but ac...

Looks like I'm in under instruction till next May so here's our joint pitch pic, pretty flat with and excellent overhang which was welcome due to 4am scattered showers.

Kids! Cruel to be kind care.
I've started commuting to work again but struggling with drop bar shifters. No strength in my fingers. It must've all seeped up to my shoulders. All rhat shoving uphill.

Re: HT550 Grand Depart - May 2022
I lost a nail last year but then it had been poor show for 2 years before that so was glad to see the back of it. It grew back just fine. It's taken me nearly as long as it did to ride the damn thing but here it is, the Trep write up is done. Warning: May contain triggers! https://trepidexplorer.blo...

Thanks lads for the support and Bearlegged for commentary. Yes those were a couple of naps you spotted. One 20 minute burst of sleeping bag liner kips after a brew of pot noodle on the WHW above Fort Bill. Once the sun was up I was good until the mound before Bridge of Orchy. I couldn't push in a st...
