  1. Today's ride was a hilly one, @ 1200m in 77km. We headed north out from Dukinfield through , , and before starting the long climb from up . At the top of the moor we headed west down the fast, but windy, descent over the motorway before turning left again taking us to . From there we headed across country taking in a few 10% plus-ers before hitting the main road that climbed to the top of . Another windy but speedy drop took us the the cafe in for coffee and refuel before the ride home through , , and . Top day with Angie, Ash, Jane, Paul and a new rider, Andy.

  2. A heady couple of hours on Osgar earlier. Lots of climbing but we both enjoy it. Some friends (not food) and from the top of Mossley Road, looking down on and from Ladcastle Road, the top of Grains Road and looking down on Town from Top O' Th' Meadows. Lovely stuff. And all this was after I'd been chatting with the protesters outside Pilgrims in A-U-L. Power to the plant eaters!

  3. I did my longest ride since the end of October earlier. 40km round trip. The halfway point was the top of what we call "The Horse and Jockey" climb, which is the road that goes from #Uppermill to the junction with the A62, #Oldham #Huddersfield road. That's where this image was taken. I put the 40mm #Continental tyres back on my #OrroTerraCHydro the other week and they still sing! It was great to get out with two riding buddies, Lauren and Dougie, too. 2 hours of fun and not too many cars about. Love it! #OrroBikes #BikeTooter #biketoot #Cycling #GroupCycling #ClubRun #ClubRides #RideWithOthers #OutsideIsFree #FromWhereIRide #LoveCycling #EnjoyCycling #CyclingIsLife #ComeCycling

  5. Can't explain how great running on the trails makes me feel. So often I get caught up chasing PB's in races, but plodding up a big hill and soaking in amazing views just feels amazing. Having to make a rather rapid detour over a stone wall to avoid cattle charging at me was the only minor downside today! 😂
