Mountain Bike Ride
The Pensioner, The Ginger One, Oz, The Cruncher.
Another ride around Guisborough Woods, taking in Percy Cross Rigg and Codhill Heights. Owing to sloppy conditions we stuck mainly to wide open, fast tracks, route planning worked out and we were practically pushed along the top of the woods by a nicely powerful tailwind.
The main talking point of the day has to be the little polyethylene bags of dog poo which the dog walkers leave at the side of the trail, sometimes even hanging on branches like festering faecal baubles. Do the culprits intend to collect them later? Do the walkway employees go round and pick them up? Bearing in mind some plastic bags can take up to a millennium to biodegrade perhaps preserving their pooches poo for future generations to find is the owners’ intention. The collective brainpower of four process operators (and one ex-process operator) was unable to come up with a reason, then again some of us find it difficult to come up with a reason why we are soaking wet, freezing cold, covered in mud and still having the time of our lives.
Bag of crap anyone? |
