Just three #DukinfieldCC riders out today. Up #WessendenHead, which I'd forgotten how relentlessly, and consistently, hard it is, but worth the #MaximumEffort. Just over 60km and >1000m of elevation in the sunshine with Paul and David. #Cycling #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #DuksCC #Duks #PinarelloMarvel #Pinarello #BikeTooter #BikeToot

70km done this morning, the first half with #DukinfieldCC, up to the top of #LongHill with a lovely #tailwind. The club carried on to #Hartington and I did a 180 and came back via #Strines and #Compstall. Lots of climbing and great fun (???), if windy and cold! #BikeTooter #BikeToot #Cycling #OsgarTheOrro #OrroBikes #ThePeakDistrict #TheGoytValley #FromWhereIRide

Today's #DukinfieldCC ride was a hilly one, @ 1200m in 77km. We headed north out from Dukinfield through #Heyrod, #Mossley, #Greenfield and #Uppermill before starting the long climb from #Delph up #MarsdenMoor. At the top of the moor we headed west down the fast, but windy, descent over the #M62 motorway before turning left again taking us to #ScammondenDam. From there we headed across country taking in a few 10% plus-ers before hitting the main road that climbed to the top of #CraggVale. Another windy but speedy drop took us the the cafe in #Littleborough for coffee and refuel before the ride home through #Newhey, #Shaw, #Lees and #Dukinfield. Top day with Angie, Ash, Jane, Paul and a new rider, Andy. #BikeTooter #BikeToot #Duks #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling #JoinACyclingClub #AllWelcome

My mate who is doing the Transcontinental 2023 is currently at the foot of the #Stelvio Pass, from the Bormio side. He reached #Control Point 1 (CP1), near #Livigno, last night with just over an hour to spare. He's currently done @ 1200km having ridden from #Belgium, through Eastern #France, up the #Grimsel Pass in #Switzerland and now heading through Northern #Italy then onto #Slovenia. The leaders are already in southern #Bosnia! At least, after the Stelvio, Phil will have an "easier" couple of days following rivers and valleys into Slovenia.

Yesterday saw just four of us set off from #Dukinfield Town Hall to #AlderleyEdge for the #cafe stop. Our #Portuguese rider, Emidio, wasn't feeling too good so I promised to keep the route as flat as possible and at a super manageable pace. And I held that promise true! Just around 64km with about 350m of elevation, so not that hard and it was really nice and steady. Great company and chats, good coffee and a #vegan #RockyRoad at #CostaCoffee in Aldeley Edge. Nice! We spotted an ex-footballer, now #Radio5Live pundit, #RobbieSavage, too. Top morning on the #bike

One of my #DukinfieldCC clubmates (Phil Cunningham) has just completed All Points North...a HUGE ride from #Sheffield, through the #LakeDistrict, up to the #Scottish border, back down through #Northumbria and then back into #Yorkshire. He's classing this 1000km+ ride as training for the #TransContinental that he's madly got on! Took him four days!

Up The #Brickworks again today (lovely climb) so a standard shot from the top. A rapid descent before a right turn to climb #Windgather, which seemed longer and steeper than when I last went up 2 years ago. Another super fast drop down #TheStreet before heading to #WhaleyBridge for coffee, then home via #Strines and #Compstall. 75km with 1150m of up, up, up. A great ride with Dougie, Angie, Ash and Paul. #BikeTooter #BikeToot #Cycling #DukinfieldCC

About 10km from home on Sunday (I'd done @ 93km around the #Cheshire lanes by this point) I nabbed a shot of the Phil Foden mural on the corner of Wycliffe Street and George's Road in Stockport. For scale, I rested Osgar the Orro by our Phil. Phil is #47 for Manchester City FC and a #Stockport lad. He's a top, top, top player. Mural by MANCHESTER MURALS (so it says!). #PhilFoden #ManCityFC #ManchesterMurals #Duks #DukinfieldCC #Dukinfield #Hyde #Denton #Audenshaw #AshtonUnderLyne #Droylsden #Tameside #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling #JoinACyclingClub #AllWelcome

Just Dougie and I today. Only 54km but just short of 1000m of climbing! A great, local route taking in #TunsteadLane, #Diggle, #GrainsRoad and #Scouthead. Pretty chuffed that I can still get up the 15%ers (and steeper!) in my 60th year and the @orrobikes Terra C helped, too. It's an amazing machine. #Duks #DukinfieldCC #Dukinfield #Hyde #Denton #Audenshaw #AshtonUnderLyne #Droylsden #Tameside #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling #JoinACyclingClub #AllWelcome
