100_2134.JPGDusty dry trails, maturing wheat fields and blasting the MTB. I have just found a great XC loop which runs for approximately 10km, almost from my front door. There is something so simple and cool about riding away from home to a trail, without packing up the car. Riding to bike rides, is unusual these days. Grabbing the basic essentials and just following your nose, it’s a little old school but great fun and hassle free when time is limited.
