Great idea, I'm pretty certain I'll partake in this

Funnily enough I've been thinking the same the last two winters. Body, legs + arms are fine but my head seems to feel the cold more. I haven't changed my helmet which would have been an obvious one. I now find a skull cap has to be worn on most winter rides now compared to a few years ago, and no I ...

Spot on

Yep enjoyed that too and the soundtrack makes the video

Managed a quick sneaky camp out last night. It was an impulsed decision to go as the time was running out for this months one. Left the house at 5pm in the motor and parked up a little later. A short ride got me to a suitable spot sheltered behind a wall with a good view in the receding light. The n...

I think there's something special riding a route you've planned for the first time..... Yep that feeling you get when you realise that those hours pouring over the OS maps, Geograph & Google maps actually transcend into a rideable route. That when you freewheel back to the car wet and tired tha...

I jibbed out from going last night, Stella was swaying me
Gonna have to do a quick sneaky one in the week as its half term here (I'm off) but the wife is working so have to be back early doors...........

I'll bounce a couple over

That was a great read, well done that man :) You earned your xmas dinner

This may not be everyones cup of tea but I do love to chill out in front of a camp fire in the evening. For summer camps I even take some steak to cook over the flames (yum yum) :) On my January camp I boiled water with a bag of meatballs (the Look what we found type), and let it boil to heat the st...

After getting a new external hard drive over xmas I transferred all my files from my old PC on to it. Anyway I came across some GoPro footage from a ride camp trip from early summer 2012!! Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoVENi3ybOM And one of my fat bike vids made it to Singletracks mid...

Ooh the Gelert Solo ;) Someone may be along shortly to say they've used a Gelert Solo for 5 years and ..... Ha, I've had mine for about 4 yearsa nd its........ ;) Tbh, as said before if you're on a budget and just want to 'give it a go' then why not. I think I've only used mine for about 10 nights ...

For bike touring Crazy guy on a bike is pretty good. Anything from a weekends jaunt to a tour of the world!!

Or just get the maps out and plan the next adventure with the help of geograph :)

Yep that does sound pretty good. This could sway me from away from a Scottish tour again :?

I ended up winning some swag from Singletracks 7th day of christmas. Walked away with a T shirt, a K-edge Garmin mount (don't own a Garmin though), energy bars/gels and a few stickers :)

I also spent last night watching it as I had control of the remote. Big respect to all who enter it, no excuse to get out at this time of year now after watching it :?

Managed to get my first one in so I'm hoping it'll give me the drive to carry this on throughout the year. A 17 miler from the doorstep in North Wales to a nice sheltered spot near Aber Falls. The weather was fine and I really enjoyed it :) The video of the trip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qU0Q...

Respect

That looks like a great jaunt.

Good man.

Ha, I stashed them in the lake a few days before

A bit of time on the iron horse eh?

Not the Wrexham area but how about deepest darkest Snowdonia, have a look at my post named ' a bit of me ' for a real north walian touch

Obviously you can't beat an OS map, but if I'm going somewhere new then I use geograph

Ha ha, you're not the first to say it. Shame I haven't got his power!!

After lurking in the shadows I thought I'll sign up to the forum so I thought I'd share a couple of rides with you. Conwy to Capel Curig and back a different way: http://i403.photobucket.com/albums/pp117/summittoppler/Capel%20camp%20out%201%20and%202%20june%202012/P1060869.jpg http://i403.photobucke...
