Another manky ride out on my Specialized Creo 1 gravel bike on 650b/27.5" wheels

 


What a shit weekend of weather we had and I did not get out on my bike or even over the door on Sunday! Just a short local mainly gravel loop since the weekend as it has finally stopped raining for a few hours and fog/mist has lifted, do not worry though still no real daylight as such to speak of. It was that dark I had to put my spare front and rear led lights on my Creo 1, on the plus side the temperature was nearly 5 degrees, better than freezing, more of that next week by all accounts. The old railway lines of Co Durham has dried up a little and was not a total slop fest as I thought it wold be. Loads of others out with 10's of dogs everywhere so it was a very stop / start ride. All in just over 19 miles with 800ft of climbing. Below are a few snaps from the ride, enjoy and hopefully more soon inc an up date on my Creo 2 Sram / Hope nightmare.
