5 NW Alpers set off to blow away the cobwebs of christmas, dry warm and with a light breeze it was a great day to be out, the Lickeys was very busy and basically a slop fest of mud so we headed towards the Waseleys as they are better drained and usually not so busy and they also have a cafe! which we made full use of. we came back over the big hill, stopping to session a jump and do some videoing and then back towards the start for a well earned cuppa. whilst out Puppy Paul called and asked if i was riding, so i met Him, Andy F and Gti to do a few trails, i showed them "straight from the door" which they seemed to like and they showed me another trail i haven't attempted for a few yearsand i took a few shots and a video of the gnarly rooty end. i parted company with them then as i'd been out for 6 hours at his point :-)
a brill day out, biking is brilliant!
