I went there with a few targets, it was my first time back there since breaking my hand there.
First was clearing the tabletop, which I managed. 2021-04-03_05-35-19 by Steve Weeks - Flickr2BBcode LITE
Next was the drop that broke my hand. It's a 4' elevation but it pops you high and boy does it feel big to me, but I aced it too!

Last one was a downhill drop that doesn't look massive but is again about 4' but as you land down the slope it ends up 5-6' that took a few runs before I sent it.
Managed another 30k this evening. Got moaned at good and proper for riding a bike ...on a bike path. Anyway, lovely evening. Don’t feel tired after that and even just a week ago it would have killed me.
Short ride training up the new hound today, was beautiful conditions.
I am suffering a distinct lack of mojo which is rather boring.
"Of all the stories you told me, which ones were true and which ones weren't?"
"My dear Doctor, they're all true."
"Even the lies?"
"Especially the lies."
Did around 35kms today riding the Meon Valley Trail with my brother and cousin ..mostly with the power off as my cousin forgot to bring the key for his eBike it’s an old railway line so very flat but ideal for a relaxing bimble ..
today was a mixed affair, got 80km done, epping forest and London, some nice roads, quite busy though, then back to Regents park for a few laps. 1st time in a long time we went to Gregs, bloody amazing value, £2.35 for a sausage roll and a coffee.
In Epping I got mugged off by 4 lads on MTB's for my over socks, then at Regents park some lady's loved them and took a picture, found 2 burnt out scooters.
