A local spin down to Durham, Maiden Castle & Houghall n back - MTB'ing in the sun

 


After a rather busy weekend - Saturday had a spin through to Dairy Tea Barn then over to Bishop Auckland for some shopping. Yesterday a drive over to Seaham for a walk up the coast n back then Jane did some shopping at Dalton Park whilst I went for a second walk around the hump side where we once held a couple of cx events. The weather has not been too bad at all. 
Today it was an early morning spin down to Durham on the Cube e mtb and then over to Maiden Castle / Houghall and up the The Trod. From there back down and around Durham before heading home via Frankland / The Sands. All in just under 15 miles with just under 700ft of climbing. The trails were nearly all bone dry and running fast. Enjoyed the ride in the glorious sun / frost. 
Back home and serviced Arrans car and on with some outside jobs in the sun and wind. Below are a few snaps from the ride, enjoy and hopefully more soon-
