    Popped out to visit Cabbage

    Cant get enough of this bike riding thing, so today I popped over Cabbages, had a cuppa and then popped over to another chap we both know but Cabbage wanted to overland


    Then the route down turns into a steep down hill section that needs to be cut across to get down ( the road we need is where the sheeps are eating!!) the XT definately has the wrong tires for slippy grass and the bobsleigh bash plate doesnt do ruts


    Nice to get it off road though

    I agree. All you and I need is for some o they hills to be moved closer to Westminster or Lambeth... Anyone on the site know how to do that?

    I like the trick-cyclist thing going on in the third picture. I've always thought I should sit on the bike when off road. My mistake!
