Out with Barrie on Wednesday afternoon and the tracks up the Pentlands were wet and greasy, waterproofs definitely the order of the day now
Out again the two of us on Friday and though it was dry there was a gale blowing higher up in the hills, that didn't stop us from looking for every available climb which would have been impossible without the e assistance.
The descent from the west end of Black Hill is always worthy of a picture especially on a clear sunny day
Barrie's still nervous about biking through the water crossing or maybe it was because he wasn't wearing his wellies like me!!
Out again this morning, Sunday, and a complete contrast to Friday with virtually no wind whatsoever as can be seen with this photo of Harlaw Reservoir.
The leg appears to holding up OK after just short of 100 miles of off road biking and nearly 10,000 feet of climbing this week, the forecast for next week looks like more of the same rubbish but the waterproofs have been washed and are ready and waiting!
