Back when we had no water and fires I said I'd never complain about rain again. The rain hasn't stopped for ages it's all green and can't see where the fires have been. Still enjoying the rain not sure about the mud Finding the metzler 360 on the back is still wearing well . I have said its slippery I'm th...

First day out this year, my son is "in college" which of course is now just online but costs the same We had a few days of great weather and since its pretty easy to ride 6 feet apart we figured this essential activity was ok.

The Colorado and Montana TAT posts inspired me to re-run the Oregon TAT sections (my recommended that is).

If you crossed the Cascades this we...

A mate (Big Jim) recently had the same op as me and had a stent fitted but had some additional issues so it's taken longer for him to get back on his trail bike.

After a long break, I finally got back on the TTR for a trail ride - after some encouragement from my good mate Jim who set the date and tried to rally the troops I wasn't sure how it would be as it wasn't long ago that I had a "medical episode" resulting in having a couple of stents fitted. So I planned the rou...
