Fools rush in where angels fear to tread - what great words of wisdom. Having not been out on a proper ride at all this year, it was probably a wee bit ambitious to think the 85km, 2 day Timber Trail Ride would be a doddle. My research on the Timber Trail ride consiste...

Bob Marley said 'Some people feel the rain, others just get wet' Since January this year, when we made a deliberate decision to 'feel the rain' we've had such an amazing adventure - in spite of whatever the weather has been up to.

Bored with the usual New Years' Eve party? We decided to find a new way to celebrate by taking an Electric Bike trip up Colonial Knob. And it was fun. Weird weather, but fun. If you look at some of the other New Years Eve traditions around the world, our adventure up t...
