another day, another bike ride. I'm getting a bit adicted to this off road stuff! A friend, Ed, joined me for his first look at this particular trail: Genesis (In the beginning?) We spent a sultry late June morning climbing the 300 metres or so to the dizzy heights of this particular South Wales 'mountain'. Because I was the one with the camera, Ed was the one who was 'snapped' in the various characterful parts of 'Genesis'.

This part was quite high up and freshly coated with pine needles, almost like a fresh fall of snow

Ed did NOT want me to put this one up! I guess I owe him a pint.

and this is how it ended!

a final flash pic in a dark woody bit before we finish in 1 hour 40 minutes or so.
