TNR 09-04-2015 Sun Shining on the Tor

Words and pics by Slim

Crew: Dunc, Slim, 3Sheds,Butty, Coley, TJ, Kersh, El Pres

Route : BL – New Buxton Rd – Tea Rooms – Shining Tor – Holleyhey Lane – Dead Man’s Hill – Jumper lane – Oakenbank – The Poachers

Stats: 1 mystery puncture for 3sheds (not the Yorkshire Northshore , allegedly), one failed small battery pack and a rear wheel spoke for Slim, iffy BB for Dunc and a summons home mid-ride

Conditions : Mild, Sunny , drying trails

Notes :
A good turn out …it was good to see Kersh, Coley and TJ joining the regulars
Fantastic weather

Route down from Shining Tor was drier than expected until the last bit which was spring-like in its muddiness
A good night for photography IMHO ….
Slim performing well on the lightweight Cotic Hardtail 🙂
