Mountain Bike Ride
The Pensioner, The Cruncher, The Fireman.
27th November route
Dullest Danby or the dullest day in Dullsland. One of those days where it never actually gets light and all the high points are mist shrouded. Still we slung our legs over the crossbars and headed upward for a route taking in Danby Beacon, Roxby Moor and Ainthorpe Rigg. A truly filthy day, not actualy raining but mud and puddles everywhere, no-one escaped looking as though they'd been pebble-dashed. A special mention must be made for the kind person who cut all the hedges on the road up to Danby Castle and left a literal carpet of thorny clippings completely covering the road - I HOPE YOUR NEXT SHIT’S A HEDGEHOG. Numerous punctures for one and all added about an hour onto our ride. Luckily we still had ample time to indulge ourselves in the Stonehouse Bakery.
