Today I headed over to Rivington to meet two of the girls from the wednesday night ride group. Once we were all in the same car park we headed up to Winter Hill, I took us a slightly longer way to take in the best that the area had to offer. Then it was back up to Rivington, up the Pike then down the ICR before heading over to Heaply Nab - could see the new trail today wonder if we can ride it yet? Before going to the cafe for well deserved cake. I then rode home, it was hard work climbing on my singlespeed. But I enjoyed having a nice long ride.43.25miles @ 7.6mph
1580m climbed
Blimey Trio. 50miles single speed off-road. You really are getting impossibly strong.
ReplyDeletethat's a big singlespeed ride. what were the others riding?
ReplyDeleteI was shattered when I got back!
ReplyDeleteKate they were of course on gears, oh and didn't ride to and from rivi!
New route at healey Nabb? Does it look downhill-y or more xc twisty singletrack? The unofficial DH course looked OK in the summer.
ReplyDeleteLooked xc type, but think they are doing a much harder black as well. hard to know. Must try and explore a bit. i never knew there was anything but the consessionary bridleway in there!
ReplyDeleteIt seems a pretty small area, they are going to have to be inventive with lines/routes if they are going to get much mileage out of it.
