Junes virtual shout out for riding companion was answered by BadlyWiredDog AKA Jon. As far as I can tell, as I don’t have any vetenary or electrical qualifications, he has neither loose connections or any canine credentials. I drove back over to Hayfield where Outdoors Photographer and all round nice chap Richpips had guided us […]

Fat Lad’s Tweet Rides – May: @RichStwit’s Rock’n’Roller
September 13, 2010 – 11:00 am
If these Tweetup rides are to teach me anything I think the main learning point will be the non-epiphanical that, no really, I couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery. I had originally supposed to be riding with Si over at Gisburn the week before, LINK however we managed to miss each other at […]
Fat Lad’s Tweet Rides – March: @stucowp’s stunner

The February tweet up ride was organised with a, quite frankly, scary for me early and efficient manner. Kate offered her local trails as a venue for the second tweet ride.

In my last post I said something like this: Little bit kookier this one. I want to ride with one or more of my Twitter followers each month of the year. I know you’re all spread across the UK (and much further afield) and it will be cool to spread my MTB wings as it […]
