I refuse to believe that you get this much good weather in N Wales, Jeff, what with Blaenau Ffestiniog being the second-wettest place in the Milky Way.

Salsa EXP Cradle
Over the last couple of months I've been using the newly revised Salsa EXP Cradle, accessory pouch, the new Top Loading dry bag and the new rubber straps.

A very blustery morning at Dinorwic quarry today. A good show of goats around the lower slopes which are good to see.

Went out to the local woods this afternoon while the pork was roasting. A nice little spin with some nasty looking weather over the mountains of Snowdonia. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50555879941_b815701fe0_c.jpg IMG_20201101_164455_027 by Jeff Price , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com...

Re: Your favourite moments?
Not wanting to close your eyes because the night sky is glistening with a gazillion stars.
Watching the pre-sunrise sky change colour.
Stumbling across a shop on the Isle of Harris 10 minutes before they close and shopping like you're on Supermarket Sweep!

It happened again today, I packed the bike, went out (from the front door), 'struggled' to find a spot to tarp up, got wet, got cold and came straight home. Probably it was in the back of my mind that its going to be awful from around 5am tomorrow. When you're cold at 5pm doesn't bode well for how y...
