Glentress newbie

On a clear, warm, mostly sunny Sunday Luke persuaded me to have my first go at Glentress Mountain biking.

I only fell off once – and that was at about 2 mph on the way up. Other than that it was a total blast.

A long climb up to the top had me gasping for breath and having to have frequent juice stops – it took about an hour of cycling I think to get from the bottom car park all the way to the summit.

From the very top after a good break it was on with the downhill (red route)
Check out this video of some obviously more experienced folk doing the start.

Great fun – completely knackered by the end of the day – and I’ve come to work on the motorbike today as my legs are a bit stiff!
