the missed opportunity ride

the missed opportunity ride, a photo by rOcKeTdOgUk on Flickr.

tonights ride was to be a tour of two cols, the Lickeys and Clent. as i was making my way over doing a few off road trails i stopped to take the above picture, just then three guys rode up and asked where the good trails were, we had a bit of a chinwag and they said they were fom Evesham and had popped over to try somewhere new. i had Clent on my mind so gave them general directions and we parted, then i thought that i'd been a bit anti social and doubled back the way i'd told them to go, i then spent the next hour or so riding around the woods but never encountered them again, bum! we could have trail swapped, a missed opportunity for sure
