A ride in the Park

Sundays are normally about the DH trails on a Giant Glory at Inners, or the black descents on a hardtail at Glentress. However not this Sunday.

Sometimes its good just to ride. Not to put the pads on or spend an hour pushing a 45 pound DH bike to the top of a big (BIG) hill. Sometimes it nice just to go for a ride in the park.

Pollock park near the center of Glasgow has a small but reasonably enjoyable mountain bike trail. Couple of jumps, couple of short sharp climbs, some small features.Nothing big.

However, 4 loops of the 3km circuit followed by a leisurely ride through the park for an hour or so, helmet off and sunglasses on, was a very pleasant alternative to gravity riding.

That said, uplift next week at Inners. Excellent................
