  1. Well the #dirtyreiver was one of the hardest rides I’ve ever done. The weather was beautiful and the gravel sublime but it was such hard work!

  2. Dirty Reiver 2026

    That was a decent day out, felt particularly hard compared to previous efforts. Sneakily saving the biggest climbs for after the 130/200 split was a dirty trick. Great weather conditions, made a good start on this year's comedy cyclist tan.

    Slight detour after the second feed due to ambulance on course. Rider injured but okay.

  3. Finally confirmed my entry for this year's Dirty Reiver, and signed up for the 200km version. Fingers crossed for no medical issues that interfere with training, and hopefully no mechanicals on the day. Decent weather on the day would be nice too.🤞

  4. Out to check the route for next Saturday, starting from the wrong end of the reservoir (because it's closer to home).

    A few gnarly sections where the tracks have been recently reinstated, and some fallen trees that will be removed before next weekend, but mostly in pretty good condition.

    Glad I've opted for the short route this year, wouldn't have been able to get the training distance in this year, for "reasons".

  5. Did a little recce of the start and finish sections of the new Dirty One-Thirty route this morning. Some good sections, some great sections, some … "interesting" sections. And at least one downhill that's going to leave the tired and unwary getting up close and personal with the scenery. 🙈

  6. Following a short (24km) section from one of the routes. Perfect day out on the - it's Good Friday... Good Gravel. 😂
