Red and blue trails at Kielder. Red was really good fun, blue quite hard afterwards as forearms tired and final trail along lake very soft. Reasonable skill on the red and some really nice sections.
Boxing Day score in Houghall. Didn’t push too hard and walked up hills. Made it round under time, only missing a cluster of four controls. Possibly third overall? Ankles ok, left a little sore afterwards. Pleased.
Utterly miserable bike ride in Yorkshire Dales. Gale force cross winds with some rain thrown in for fun. Impossible to even ride in a straight line on flat/downhill, which made for some worrying moments.
Very easy 5*5mins through woods from home. Got chased twice by the evil dogs belonging to the woman that doesn't have any control over them - she was completely out of sight both times they went for me. Body painful but holding up.
