This was part of the Sarne Helen, over the mountains to the slate old works at Cwm Penmachno and then back via the Cwm Prysor Viaduct. I hurt today. ๐

And that was blast! Hill climbing in North London, including Swains Lanes and Ally Pally, and then a slow roll back via the Union Canal to the pub! Perfect Sunday by all accounts. ๐ค

These are ace - thank you! Next long weekend I think I might slice and dice these together and do some exploring around St Albans / Hertford / Ware! I'm always looking for new trails. ๐ค

Those trails are stunning! I was looking at the route earlier and trying to see if I could push it a bit further north via St Albans / Albans Way. Possibly, but legs would hate me. ๐

And if you wanna try this, the route is here!

Yeah it was a perfect spin up the River Lee, through the woods and into home via North London. Legs hurt now though. ๐

Thank you Jon, Iโve spent a bit too long unable to travel so now I'm cramming it all inโฆ by bike of course. Not sure I'm ready for air travel just yet. ๐

Thanks Jon, that's great to know. This trip will really push me out of my comfort zoneโฆ itโs a hefty route and a long way from home! But sod it, I've learned to pedal my way through the anxiety these days! ๐ค

Yeah not too bad. A few squelchy bits around Claygate but otherwise good. I came down a different trail on Ashtead Common last week and it was errโฆ fun! ๐

and yes, they are pissy locks but ideal for leaving your bike where you can see it. Iโve several of these to secure items overnight when bikepacking! ๐ฌ

Yes, do it! That incident was massively stressful but thankfully brute force worked. Now need a new lightweight cafe lock! ๐ค
