28th January 2010 Mt. Biking: Angler's Retreat Wind Direction: N?A Wind Stength: N/A Surf / Sea State: N/A Air Temperature: 2ºC Sea Temperature: N/A Weather: Raining Max Speed: 24.3 mph (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 12.5 miles (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) What a lovely night, dark, raining, windy and cold - perfect for a night ride at Angler's Retreat. It didn't put me, Dave, John or Dan off though and we were soon kited up and heading off along the fire-road. The first bit of singletrack was down along the forest trails to the rocky step. I managed to clear it again which was good and it actually felt quite easy. I then felt pretty comfortable down along the MX trails to the fireroad as well. We then headed off to the ford. John was up to his usual tricks, as soon as something looks a little different or not quite right he jumps off his bike and throws himself to the ground. I think he only came off about 3 times last night, but the first was the most spectacular. There was till quite a bit of snow about so we had to push a little through some of the gulleys. In places the snow was still about 3 foot deep which made the going tougher than usual. Because of this we decided against going down the chute, just in case the north-facing climb back up was covered in snow. Instead we dropped down into Artists Valley and looped back around to the cars. Cold, wet and windy and with very low visibility in places but a nice ride despite the conditions. |
