Mountain Bike 2:45:00 [3] 25.3 km (6:31 / km)
Did my first technical mtb in a while. With JP at Cwmcarn. Started on Cafall, which was new to me. Some challenging cllimb, then a really shitty muddy bit, followed by more ups and downs and a pretty technical ending. I enjoy exploring new tracks, but welsh mtb parks seem to have a tendancy to make things more and more technical...Took us 1.45 too do 13.2k!
then up road and back onto the classic Twrch track. glad james made me do this, much more free flowing descent, and on balence still quite a lot better than the new track.
A few mech issue sin the drive chain, will have to check it out. Generally shite weather could've done with more agressive tires. Big problems wiith glasses fogging or mud in eyes. Though weather cleared up near the end.
James beasted me all day, think it was a difference in fitness rather than the advantage of a 29er....properly knackered.
Good fun, very muddy afterwards.
