anyone around for a gentle spin around Penmachno ?, its been a good while since I've been in the hills and this place is a great place to kickstart the winter hill rides, I'm aiming to get riding by about 0930hrs, easy pace, prolly stop to make a brew at some point, might need lights

Might be up for a very gentle spin Steve.... been a while since I was out. Will PM you my contact info.

hopefully I've just replied, but if not, I'm bailing this week due to my chest infection getting worse rather than better :-/, taking a few days on Anglesey with the lad, walking instead of riding, hoping to be better for next week

No worries Steve... I've been down with a chest infection for nearly a week too (worst in ages - kiddy superbug!).
Have a good time with the lad... let me know if you're fat biking at Newborough!

cheers Mark

will probably take a walk there tomorrow, then north to south stack on Weds

will definatly be there next Weds, staying local over night, riding the Marin trail on Tuesday afternoon, Penmachno on Weds then trying to remember how to link the two via the ugly house like we used back in the 90s before the ifficial trails existed

will text you start/meet times Mark, it'll be about 0930 I guess

Had fun despite feeling like death warmed up

some snaps from the three days we rode
