I couldn't be arsed uploading a bazillion photos of todays ride, so I spent 3 hours putting a video together 🤔 40 miles condensed into about 3 and a half minutes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY2W...

Well what else are you meant to do in a tunnel? (sound up)

Today I will be mostly riding with 3 other people to Braybrook Tap Room, having a pint and a croissant, then riding back home with a detour up Haselbech Hill to take a photo 👍

I went on a 30 mile e-bike ride yesterday evening and took literally zero pictures. It was a lovely view over the reservoir too 🤷‍♂️ Oh well, here's an old one from last year.

One of these days I'll have to time my ride up here properly for sunset 🤔 #mtb

Atrocious nights sleep last night for numerous reasons, so today was an assisted XC bimble. Fair bit wetter out there than I expected given it only really rained overnight here... some wading required 🌊🌊 #emtb #mtb @absolutemtb.bsky.social @ukmtbchat.bsky.social

I may suffer tomorrow, but couldn't let my gippy knees deny me the sunshine 🤷‍♂️

No riding for me today unfortunately, knees say no... however it has given me the chance to get mine and the lads hardtails cleaned up ready for the warm summer miles 😊

Wee little 30km XC run out to Glassthorpe Hill today... actually wore shorts for the first time this year 🤔

Today's discovery: through the magic of Samsung's on-board photo editor, I can park my car in its own cup holder. Not sure how practical or useful this is but there you go 🤔

Me & Mondy didn't make it to the pub... well we did, but I was too early & they were shut 🤦‍♂️😂 Soo... had a panini & cappucino at Salcey Forest instead. Also found some random diffodals planted for no apparent reason 🤔 @absolutemtb.bsky.social @ukmtbchat.bsky.social #mtb #mountainbike #mondrakerbikes

Didn't go riding today seeing as I had some household chores to address (honestly I had to, I been putting them off forever). At least the oven door glass is degreased & see-through again 🤷‍♂️ I'll make up for it tomorrow... got a 50km loop planned that may or may not involve a pub halfway🤔

Well... I'm 'out out' as promised. Don't let the sun fool you, it's a bit chilly 🥶

Soooooo.... I've not ridden in over a month now. Personal stuff and things to deal with, you know how it is. However, I'm using up my annual leave, so I'm off all next week. Deffo gonna have to give myself a kick up the 'arris and get a few laps in. Weather gods please be nice 🤔

Andy's thought for the day: life is reactionary. Sure you can try and plan ahead, but you never really know what's coming. All any of us can do is our best to handle shenanigans and maybe learn something from it for next time. We all fall from time to time... it's how you get back up that matters.

Not bike related, but with the impending 'demise' of Windows 10 I've been swapping my home server over to Ubuntu. I think I'm there now with everything I need it to do but f* me it's still a ballache doing simple things... like network folder shares. And Plex can f* right off 🤨

Right then, that's Christmas 'done' for another year, back to the morning commute to work... (Walks 3m across 1st floor landing to home office at back of house 🤔)

Happy new year and all that malarkey... it's bloody awful out there 🤨 (you'll know what I mean if you're UK based)

I did get out today... no pics though, had to keep going to try and clear my head a bit... not even sure that worked tbf, felt like a passenger for most of it. Too much going on upstairs it seems 🙁

A somewhat misty Boxing Day morning around Northampton Washlands... a couple of days later that I intended but better late than never 🤔

Merry Chrimbo all... my bike-related gifts were a Fox hoodie & Troy Lee jersey from the lad, a new sign for the Andy-cave door from daughter. And yeah, the hat. Apparently I'm dyeing my beard and cosplaying as Abe Lincoln at some point 🤔 @absolutemtb.bsky.social @ukmtbchat.bsky.social

Led the 'mud-lite' club Chrimbo social ride today... me still pushing through with this bloody sore throat... it's not as bad as it was earlier in the week but the painkillers wore off towards the end 🤨 Couple of post-ride pints helped a bit. @absolutemtb.bsky.social @ukmtbchat.bsky.social #mtb

It's my last day of work before Chrimbo today... so it's my Friday! Well, it's everyone's Friday I suppose, with it being Friday, but... oh you get the idea 🤔

Apparently we're not allowed to go fishing in the Nene Whitewater Centre's man-made 'rapids'. Does make me wonder if this sign is because some bell-end has actually tried 🤔 @absolutemtb.bsky.social @ukmtbchat.bsky.social
