Great ride this weekend with just Debs and I. She's a newbie and we have done a few trails together already (Epping, Forest of Dean, Queen Elizabeth Country Park and Swinley) and thought time to take her to Surrrey Hills and move the game forward with some more technical terrain.

It was super cold and the ground was frozen solid. We climbed up to the viewpoint at Holmbury Hill and then did Yoghurt Pots and the windy labyrinth like section afters. Then we headed down the runs to the village hall and played around the side routes. Final section was Barry Knows Best (why is it called that?) and after 2.20 hrs we were done.

Debs getting super fit and a much more confident rider. Pace has improved in corners lots. Despite a snack an hour and a half in she got the bonk near the end so going to try snacking an hour in and some energy drink in the camel pack next time. Great day.

Folks, each month we will be giving away the most sought after item there is.... The iBikeRide T-Shirt.  This illustrious prize will be awarded to the Rider that contributes the best post be it a Blog, Forum post, kicks off their own poll, Event, Directory Listing, Review or posts their own gallery of video. Tons of ways to win.

It's truly awesome, I know.

Winner will be chosen by a combination of views (popularity) and an expert panel made up of me and however I feel on the day.
