Just had a great day catching up with Martin and one of his offspring, Gordon, and introducing them to the delights of off-road biking.

We rode from near the coast up to the South Downs Way between Washington and Storrington before descending down to the cake shop!

We covered just over 13 miles which was great considering the heat and it was the first time Martin had tried serious off-road riding.  It was also good low intenity training for me after yesterday’s longer ride.

Martin and Gordon – daring to ride road jersey’s off-road!

Gordon and yours truly (the new slimmer version)
