http://swtchbckr.blogspot.com/2015/07/toosdy-night-cold-red-zone-meander.html
Mostly a ride diary. Wednesday, July 08, 2015. Toosdy night Cold Red Zone meander. On Monday night I texted Nelson to say to bring his bike in on Tuesday for to hit the hills before the winter blast hit after work. Unfortunately, I sent said text to T's phone, and so Nelsie never got it. Touched base with him Tuesday morning and he had his commuter, so he came to mine after work and we had dinner before heading out into the 'Zone. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mostly a ride diary. Sunday, July 19, 2015. Sunday Ashley Snow Gorge. Hill tracks were all closed, so the crew were just gonna head through Sumner and ride. The Summit Rd back. Some of the valleys we went into and out of here were really deep in lovely powder snow. Finally a descent for ages and around to a view point overlooking all of Lees Valley. Great view:. And then looked at my watch; "Oh Shit! It was 11.40, and I was meant to be home by 1! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Commute: Surly, Troll.

http://swtchbckr.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Mostly a ride diary. Thursday, August 27, 2015. Thursday sunset night time ramble. Seats down and down the steps, bompity bompity bompity, manualing the last couple and it was starting to get harder and harder to see, but still no lights really necessary - better on the west facing side of the ridge, line sussing, then across the top and down to top of the Bridle Path. Final bomb down to above the ruins was okay and we had a breather on the connecting farmtrack. Links to this post. Sunday, August 23, 2015.

Mostly a ride diary. Sunday, November 30, 2014. Sunday Solo Jet Forest. Quick ride for Jet and me today, cos it's my mum's birthday and they were coming for lunch, so I had to get home early. The rest of the usuals were meeting at Steve's or Dotcom and heading up. Back up the exit track, overtaking them and then down the last back to the car. Good 1 and a quarter or so spent and home before 11. Sweet as. finally. Links to this post. Wednesday, November 12, 2014. Wednesday night lapping up the Old Skool.
