[@specializeddoug]

Thanks DC. That’s a tough wee climb, especially after what we had done already. My legs were screaming.

Beautiful Autumn golden sunshine. My back yard this ride Doug, so many trails to follow around here. St Mocha bacon rolls are the business. The Kirkhouse does a great bowl of chips when we stop off on a family ride and the young staff there are so so genuinely nice. And yeah, the Khyber pass is a bit brutal.

[@specializeddoug]

That’s the first time we’ve gone into the Kirkhouse Earthbound. It’s really nice inside. You live in a lovely part of, we had a great wee day.
