Looked a good ride Yorkney! I bet that decent at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="900">15:00</a> mins in was a lot steeper than it looked on the go pro 😮. Nice to see you out riding again mate👍…… loved the highland cattle…. And thanks for the shout out…. Top Man.

That’s the steepest decent I’ve been down and the first time I’ve done it, ironically I’ve driven past it literally dozens of times and never noticed it, it was so steep my arse was on the mudguard. Hey no worries pal, one good turn deserves another in my book. Those Highland cattle are so cute but those horns are too big to get too close to and they had juveniles with them so I’m more cautious than usual, they can run pretty fast 🤣

Really nice ride, I see theres been a lot of wash out on some of the sections especially sort of 12 to 15 minutes it was very easy to see the small ravines forming same as we have experienced over the last winter up here in the lakes ;-)

[@yorkneytrailrider1751]

I came across a lot of wash out all over the place mate, I’m not surprised though given the rain we’ve had, the roads were like rivers on the verges and the moors had some really deep water holes too, like OTB deep 😮

Good to see you out matey 👍🏼

Thanks Ian, I really enjoyed it but derailleur is not good so it’ll be a little while before I go out again ☹️

[@yorkneytrailrider1751]

I’ll get it sorted but it won’t be a cheap fix 😉

Your not wrong pal, I suppose I could have stayed with wired but threading the shifter outer through my frame wasn’t a task I enjoyed as much as I did stripping it out and going wireless, the same applied when I went for a wireless dropper too, cockpit is a lot tidier too 👍
