First Bike Ride Of 07!
woo, finally, as i have got my new bike the other month i have not had chance to test it out because no one is ever available to go on rides coz of uni. stupid place. but alas i final did get a chance to test it out, and it was sure tested, definitely one of the best bike rides ive been on, which included one of the best down hill stretches, the steepest uphill stretches ive been on, the weather was brilliant, i think i even got sunburnt but im to tired to find out now. well good!So ye thats us at the white house pub at the top of Blackstone edge, your probably wondering what on earth the pants/shorts are that i am wearing, and the truth is i don't know, all i know is they look funny. agree? of course! anyway, the story goes as follows:
My tyre had already popped, then kyle's inner tube popped also, which took him about 6 years to fix, i jumped in a peat bog ,then smiv fell off his bike, then mattys inner tube popped, kyle is still fixing his bike, then we went and looked upon all the dyke's who live in hebden bridge, then we went up a ridiculously steep hill, kyle is still fixing his bike, then wooo, we got a trigpoint, then went down some well good downhill, and came home down the canal through littleborough kyle is still fixing his bike, then we came home and eat alot of food. END!

How funny do I look in a ditch, that were jus silly, that were one immense downhill tho, as josh says, one of the best ever and i fully agree. My new bike is performing better than i ever could have imagined (aside from the weight factor) despite me actually plummeting from my bike a total of 3 times that ride haha.
It has to be said though, I will destroy josh if he ever takes us up a hill like that again, no matter how promising the DH on the other side, ill quote garlick in saying thanks for the challenge buts its one of those once in a life time challenges, never to be repeated lmao.
Anyways, av already said too much but wotta ace ride and a mint post again josho "....and kyle is still fixing his bike....."
Smiv
