First proper #gravel ride of 2026, seen here on the path in #ReddishVale. This starts as mud, then gravel, over field run-off drains, then bricks and stones before mud and dirt and then a few cobbles. Great fun. Always great to be back on the #NorthRoadCycles #GraviTi . #cycling #GravelRide #VeganCyclist #OutsideIsFree #BikeTooter #BikeToot #Bicycle

120km done on the Naomhan, the North Road Cycles Grav-i-Ti, over the last three days. A lovely Sunday club run and two WFH "commutes"! This morning's ride included a stop by the "amazing oak tree" (©️ Google Maps), by the River Tame, and what a tree it is. Quality, all around. #cycling #GravelBike #Gravel #GravelRide #GraviTi #NorthRoadCycles #Naomhán #OakTree #nature #ponies #vegan #VeganCyclist

A superb solo Sunday 50km ride on the Grav-i-Ti. Picked up the Peak Forest canal, near home, all the way to Disley. Then onto the hard, climby tracks around Lyme Park before heading back through Chadkirk, then back onto the canal at Romiley and head home. Lots of wildlife, including a beautiful pair of Mandarin ducks. This Mother's Day lark is easy. #Cycling #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #NorthRoadCycles #GraviTi #BikeTooter #BikeToot #PeakForestCanal #LymePark #MandarinDucks #gravel #GravelBike

Another 72km clocked up on the Grav-i-Ti. A few hours with my mate, Paul, out beyond #Manchester airport. The ride stayed dry and the sun popped out for the last hour. Nice! #cycling #NorthRoadCycles #GraviTi #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #GravelBike #daffodils #BikeTooter #BikeToot

After a short while, due the new-ish Ekar rear mech dying, the North Road Cycles Grav-i-Ti is back on - and off - the road. That was like riding a new bike.

Back on the bike after nearly 5 weeks in Spain (no bikey there, unfortunately). Had to nip to North Road Cycles, in Sale Moor. Blimey, I really did feel being out of the saddle for several weeks during the last 10km home! I took in part of the Trans Pennine Trail (TPT) on the return journey, too. Lovely! #BikeTooter #BikeToot #cycling #Orro #OsgarTheOrro #JacksonsBridge #SaleMoor #NorthRoadCycles #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #VeganCyclist #PlantPoweredCyclist #Vegan #TPT

It was so nice to get out and spend some time on my 61st with my new best mate. The trails by the River Tame are looking especially autumn-y now.

Another dinner time ride, another 30 minutes of fun on the gravel bike. It was nice to head down to Reddish Vale, take in the River Tame meandering through the viaduct, before the bone-shaking drag back to Denton. Quality.

Nipped out for just under 70km with a mate yesterday, the first long ride on the new bike. About 90% of it was off-road; down towpaths, old railway lives and other tracks. Great fun, and we missed the rain. Mind you, I could have done without the relentless 14-16%ers in the last 5km! I've never been more happy to have a huge sprocket on the back!

#NBD Today, I finally picked up my 60th birthday present to myself (it was last October!), a North Road Cycles Grav-i-Ti. I got the tram down to Sale Moor and rode Nollaig back via the gravel/rocks/sand/cobbles tracks that run alongside the River Mersey, from Sale Moor to Stockport. Then onto tarmac for the last 9km home. Of course, it got filthy so had its first wash later in the afternoon, too!
