I decided that this year I was going to treat myself to a nice mountain bike and build up my stamina and endurance out on the local lanes rather than sitting in a gym 3 days a week. Having spoken to a friend of mine who has really got into mountain biking in a bike big way ….. i.e. £3000 for a push bike, I got my self a Specialized Hardrock with Disc.
Earlier last week 3 of us went out and I got chance to test a 17 inch, 18 inch and 19 inch frame to see what was best for the back and knee injuries, having ridden all 3 I have opted for the 17 inch frame.
We did a gentle 2 hours out by Epsom Downs and I must admit it really was great fun, having spent most of my spare time screaming round the back lanes on either a KTM Supermoto or a KTM Enduro bike it was really very enjoyable to spend a few hours with mates chatting and getting fit at the same time.
On the KTM front, I have got the Enduro bike road registered with a MOT and tax, but need to get a new front tyre, the sprockets are all starting to loose their teeth plus I am going to see if a new set of clutch springs will help get rid of forearm pump on the next enduro.
Mike and I went out for a few hours on the MTB and having lived in this part of Surrey since 2001 I did not realise how beautiful the back lanes and footpaths are until you get out and explore them. Last night we cycled from Epsom Downs to Headley Heath and back via Walton on the Hill.
Friendly folk you may meet on mountain bike trips in Surrey
Saturday we are planning a full day out on the MTB’s so I will update you on the day’s events.
On the business front we have been very busy with Ines doing some work filming at the Melville Clinic and has a wedding next week at Chiddingfold at a beautiful; venue called Ramster. She has not filmed there before so she is really excited about that, plus she is getting the chance to work with some local photographers Laurence and Ella Bulaitis, from Epsom at the wedding
No doubt she will keep you updated via her blog
