Busy, busy Saturday - early morning road ride, Neccl Rd6 & preparing bikes etc

Up and out for an early morning road ride on the Litespeed winter machine, yet again cold, windy, foggy and just plain awful weather. Overnight rain so the road were soaking wet as well. Rode over to Witton Gilbert then the back climb upto Broom House Farm and along to Burnhope. As you can see in the photos below there was dense fog again until i got to Edmondsley where it started to lift again. Back in and prepare & pack the two cx bikes for Neccl Rd6 @ Hetton Lyons Country Park. The park is up the naffs in mud now with all the recent rain so proper cx conditions! Both lads had a good race then back home to wash the bikes and another four dirty bikes from this weeks rides. Then prepare the two roads bikes for tomorrows Hexham Evans Ride It Sportive. Oh and gave the car a wash when we were soaked and frozen as well. Back in and uploaded a gallery of photos from the first two races at Hetton.
Going to pack my kit bag and then hit the couch for some r & r if that is possible.
