1st ride: Balls to the Wall

Hey all you Joe's, I got out there for a good spin around the woods.
Up to Ballaison, via the muddy marsh, then into the Fairy Forest, down the other side, sweet single track, and back along the Deliverance route. ;)))
Trying to perfect the Grand Bois run. I was thwarted by farmer Joe!@£&!?!?
He had ploughed through a track I wanted to use, oh well, I had to find a different way back. 
Here are the stats of the ride...
Distance covered: 35km
Ride time: 2hrs 30mins
Height gained: 480m
No spills or technicals. ;)))
Points?
1 for ride. 
Not sure what else?!?!

Ride: Tues 12 April, Balliason & Grand Bois

Hey all you Dogs & Cats (not many Cats left)...

Limoncello, for you...













I propose a ride from my place on Tues 12 April!

Clocks change on weekend of 26/27 March, so week of 4th April is "officially" the start of the season, however I will be travelling that week, so I can't host.

For Tues 12th April I propose a great new ride: Balliason & Grand Bois

I have been trying to "perfect" the loop for some time now, and I think I have it! ;)))
Where: 791b chemin du Pont de Crevy, Veigy-Foncenex, 74140, France
When: 18:30 bums on saddles
Bring: lights and good humour!!!

We'll eat pizza in Hermance near end of ride.

2016... the year of the Dog???

Old Jo says... a new Era to start March 31, 2016 !


36+ years have gone by since I started working for Caterpillar, now the time has come to say good bye to my working life - as I shall retire on March 31, 2016 - and say hello and welcome to my New Life ! 


Let's welcome the 2016 Biking Season and its famous rides and socials.

Cats beware a new Dog is coming with plenty of time to train...and I am ready.
