Tales From The Rock

Some years back taking a leaf out of Andy from Germanies lifestyle I opted to use 2 wheels as often as possible which has led to some amazing adventures and long distance rides like 500 miles in 72 hours (probably further than that plus 3 mountains in the time)

but after epics like that the local rides never fail to surprise me 

with picture opportunities.

Which is why 

some short rides take so long.

The apprentice looks a bit apprehensive here, hardly a surprise given the last time he was on his bike he had a high speed crash that really cut him up badly. 

He asked for a selfie at this point as he was feeling pleased with himself, rightly so after completing a tricky forest trail.

One of us looks good in this pic, and its not me! Perhaps I should spend more time cycling and less time photographing!
