Bike n Run

Ears at gale force 6!

Went for a bike n run today, rode up the track towards Yes Tor, ditched the bike near the top and ran the rest of the way. Stiff breeze on top, gale force 6 as you can see from the reading on my mobile canine olfactory anenometer (dog's ears). Got back on the bike and continued across the ridge to High Willhays then went off piste down to Dinger Tor, no knee deep powder but lots of knee deep peat bog, not great for riding.
Eventually got back on the track then headed for home...8km downhill dirt track!! that's what I'm talking bout!
Distance: Bike - 12km
Run - 2km

The Bristol Run Rider is a really tough event. This year it was slippery too - favouring those of us who know how much psi to put in our tyres!
Coach Maddie stormed the women's event (winning by a cool 35 mins) and finished 7th overall. Coach Jay had to fight hard to win the vet category, and took 2nd overall as a nice bonus.
Both are off to Slough this weekend for the Night of the Knobbly Tread MTB race on Saturday, followed by the Black Park Duathlon on Sunday.
The Knobbly Tread is the UK's only night XC race, and if that's not enough - it's fancy dress too!
The duathlon is not fancy dress unfortunatley, although there will be a lot of people in trisuits, which always adds a certain comedy element.
