Went out and a back brake pad fell out. Had to just do a road ride until my mates were finished ffs. Getting proper disheartened with biking lately.

This is where we're staying, it's my second visit here and can't recommend it enough ! The guy that runs it is lovely and took us all on some mad off piste downhill sections of the forest last time I was there !

Second time we've been over in the past month and really enjoyed it both times, done the Blue as a warm up then the Altura which I found some of the climbs bloody hard going today, partly due to the conditions but mainly due to my weight and lack of fitness!
