I’ve been missing 30 days of biking this week, especially as I only managed to cycle to work on a few days because of work commitments. But I made up for it all this evening, with a lovely, sunshiny bank holiday mountain bike ride at my local stamping ground: the Mendip hills. It’s a fun place to ride, with a a mixture of trail types – fire roads mixed in with single track and some more technical rooty runs through the woods.
I did find my normal route to be a bit more of a challenge than usual, as there seemed to be a lot of loose rocks all over the place. But it was fun nonetheless, particularly as we were treated to some truly stunning, sunny views today.
Gorgeous! I need to get back out on our local trails too. After a long winter of barely biking more than 4 miles at a time it’s proving hard to get going again.
