October Sunset


Not the latest Indy band to hit the south west, but what we were treated to last night before we set off on this weeks midweek ride!

After the driest September since records began (according to the BBC) it was a little sticky under the tires after some rain earlier in the day, but it felt great!

A good mix of new old bikes and old new bikes took on Stowe, Millers, Pheasant pens (long way round) and a cheeky lap of Tiscott.

El Capitan seemed spurned on from watching the ladies road racing to get as many miles and hills in as possible, which wasn't to everyone's liking, but those that stuck with it all felt rewarded at the end.

We all know that all good things come to an end and its going to get muddier soon, so best get some miles in your legs to help cope with it when it gets here!
