Another Busy weekend inc a ride through to Bishop

After a cold morning first thing with temperatures hovering around 1.5 degrees there was a touch of ground frost in places. Me and Angus had a ride through to Bishop Auckland on the Cube E mtb's. The lines were wet and muddy after the heavy overnight rain but the sun was out. We took the old railway line straight through to Bishop from Bearpark Farm. Once we crossed the viaduct we met in with Jane and Arran, got changed and headed to the tea rooms for breakfast. After that we had a walk around the Christmas market in the castle grounds and No 42. We then to Morrisons for some food shopping, fuel and Halfords for some wipers. Below are some photos, enjoy and hopefully more soon -

 

 

 

Also there was some new goodies this week as my rear led light would not charge / turn on. Angus has also broken two bells so got some cheapo replacements £1.50 each!

I also washed / charged and serviced the Cube E bike, replaced the front pads, the rear ones still have some life left in them yet.

 

Yesterday me and Angus serviced my sisters car as it is going for its mot next Saturday and gave it a full valet / wash and clean. Then moved onto Angus cars, that took 5 hours, nipped in had a shave and changed my clothes and straight back out to Homer Hill tea rooms for a festive afternoon tea. The drink and food was spot on but pricy! we had a couple of vouchers so did not cost us anything but should have been £36, Beamish hall was better value for money.
