Happy New Year!
I was hoping to get a ride out on the 1st or 2nd day of the New Year but with rain and gale force winds it just wasn't happening.
After getting some snow on the afternoon of the 3rd and the wind abating a bit I decided to get the Pugsley out and head down the local trails to the beach and coastal tracks. While the wind was still fairly strong I thought the lower beach track and hedges may offer some respite from it. It was also a full moon so tried to capture it on my way home but a bit too dark for my phone and struggled to hold still in the 50mph winds.
Not much snow but in the following four days there has been quite a bit with these trails now being covered by about 6 inches in the fields with the track being about a foot deep due to the drifts. Unfortunately I am back at work and unable to get out on the Pugsley, but hopefully this weekend.
A slightly later start but it's always good to start the year riding.

That moon shot still has enough of the atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had the riding routes around here that you do. It is better than where I'm very lived before...but still too busy..and the off-road routes are hilly and full of wind turbine construction traffic
