Not dead, just restin'

Well, believe it or not, we have been going out and about on the bikes in the last few months since the last post. Some of us have been going out a bit more than others though.
Darker nights, wetter weather, generally not so good for taking pictures and writing about it.
However, there's been quite a few pictures hanging around on the phone camera, so here's a few of them just to prove the bikes have been used.

19th October 2011 - The old "Port Line" near Gatehouse Station, SW Scotland
6th November 2011 - Tyne Pedestrian Tunnel
6th November 2011 - Bowes Railway Path, Leam Lane
20th November 2011 - Hadrian's Cycleway - Blaney Row

That last one's rather artistic, isn't it... taken mid afternoon in a patch of dense fog by the river. Cold for cycling though.
And to prove that we even go out on the shortest day of the year, here's another couple.

21st December 2011 - Bowes Railway Path - A photo of the mist in the valley over Gateshead

21st December 2011 - Here's Ian creeping up the hill. Very wet and muddy, very slow.

Might get out and about again before the end of the year, weather depending.

As an update on the Neoguard, it's been very very good. Really cut down on the mud and splashes hitting you in the face. An excellent investment, well worth buying.
