Ride Entry – 1st December 2009
by admin on Dec.02, 2009, under Uncategorized
Bike: Vela
Distance: 36 Miles
Tried to finish off maintenance but didn;t get very far. Just went out for a ride instead. The Vela needs some serious maintenance doing on it. At least it’s clean now. I like the ride I did today, completely new to me. Out to Tldsley, Bolton, Brompton Cross up onto the moors, over to Belmont, over the hill to Rivington, back home. Nice, I might make it my regular ride, needs less puctures though. I suspect this rear tyre is ready for replacement but around 3000 miles is pretty good I feel. I suspect it’s life has been prolonged through so much riding in the wet. I also need more maintenance days. New seat to go on the track bike and sort the brakes on the pimpino.

Bromley cross possibly? Some good rolling roads up there, steep power climbs and fast descents broadhead rd and blackburn rd (old blackburn road I presume) I was up there last night too, offroad tho.
