Quick learner 1 Apr 2013 | 09:15 pm
After a very extended stay at a friendly bike shop, I finally got my mountain bike back on Thursday. All in all, I think it might have been 6 weeks, maybe longer since I last rode it thanks to a compl...
So I went for a walk… 17 Mar 2013 | 09:33 pm
And there, easily enough, this post could stop. All you could take away from it might just be that. A walk. Nothing special. Except we were supposed to be going to Hardcastle Crags, a 15 mile away Nat...
Not enough but something 31 Dec 2012 | 08:04 pm
I didn’t ride enough this year. So instead my review isn’t. Lets wipe 2012 from the slate with its appalling weather, its getting things the wrong way around, its losing touch with the important lovel...

The why’s and the wherefore’s 21 Aug 2012 | 05:55 am
I’ve just been pondering on what it is that makes some people want to run up mountains and some people to cringe in horror at the thought. I don’t know the answer. I don’t know why I want to be up hig...
Breaking the habits of half a lifetime 20 Aug 2012 | 04:34 am
Usual caveats. Honesty. Difficult in places possibly. I don’t know what I’m going to write, as per usual so bare with me – but I want to talk about weight. And I want to do it with the filters off. Pl...
If you love what you do, you’ll do what you love 13 Aug 2012 | 01:11 am
