Well things started real bad...

-Gump was late by 10 mins (lol)

-Then I had a front puncture (dodgy repair again)

-Then Gump's WR400 kept dying

All this before the first lane

Here's a vid of our days adventure down to Salcombe and back via Kingsbridge...

 

Quality a bit crappy as I am experimenting a bit with different file types.

Yea once we got started it turned out a great day.
As for a baptism of fire on my first Green lane ride out I was introduced to a crazy dog chasing me up a lane that was almost impossible to climb. God knows how you do it in the wet? Doing the steps was good and being taken through the stream.
Got a few bruises and aching arms to show for the day but all in all cheers Danny for braking my green lane virginity and being gentle with me !!!!!
