Another ride that never was ...

With plans for an epic ride coming up next February, a small group of us managed to get permission to ride some closed trails in exchange for providing a report on trail conditions to the land owner.

I think it would be fair to say that the trail conditions were 'varied'.

We had a brilliant weekend and it was a great shake out of our various bikepacking setups and also a great chance to put together the wish list for Santa this year ...

My wish list is particularly long ...

Here's to more adventures that 'never will be' (written about in detail) especially the big one next year.

Here's to good company ...

And here's to beautiful places ...
