Wrap up warm (-7 degrees :shock: ) & Meet at High beech at 9:30


Any takers?

Both suffering from the new dad syndrome we managed to get at HB at 8:45 ish
it was Fing cold but that resulted in great conditions: Epping is fast as hell and really flowy at the moment.

Combined with a couple of comical off's, frozen camelbaks and some discussions about nappy changing (instead of the usual "which tyre's are you running today" discussion it was a great ride. :D

Bit of a surprise at home when I discovered the hose had frozen as well after spraying muckoff on the bike :cry:

Sweet ride today - I had some entertaining crashes - as joost mentioned conditions are great in epping - as fast and dry as a summers day. I bet its even better else where. Grabbed a few pics on the phone - the winter light plus some exposure tampering gave some nice effects.

found a log crossing which had been rebuilt - never tried jumping before.... but it worked a treat and gave me some stoke - its the little things in life eh!
