It's winter 2023/24 and yet another storm batters the land....
This one is called Isha, a lovely sounding name but it brought havoc to many parts of the UK. To be fair we got off relatively lightly in this part of the country. Don't get me wrong, it was a bit rough out there and later on in the evening it took a turn for the worse but overall I have been out on the bike in rougher weather.
Joining me on this ride was Paul who I have known for years but we haven't been on a ride for ages. We finally managed to get out there and though it was fairly short, we had a great ride. Loads of laughs and surprisingly for once it wasn't me hitting the deck this time. Paul experiencing a couple of minor incidents on this one, only suffering some minor dents to his pride.
Both of us riding the hardtails. We certainly found plenty to test the lack of rear travel in the stunning Hope Valley. My Ragley is really impressing me with how it rides. It is such a fun little hooligan and it almost seems like the rowdier the trail gets the more it rewards you. Just brilliant, loving it!
Enjoy the ride!
