Lots of hail and sleet. Then my chain snapped. Had a chain breaker and spare quick links so it was fine. I was pretty frozen by the time I got back home! 😆 #mountainbiking05 Apr 2026 19:19 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mirhrvbbm32bhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mi5g2lxqmr2oBiting cold wind, but nice out today. Good to be still dry when I got back home!! #mountainbiking28 Mar 2026 19:55 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mi5g2lxqmr2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mi5fg6qcnu2fOn a cycle and again the gates are 'locked' by obfuscation on the Bavelaw estate. This happened a lot before. The bolt has been tightened so much the lock is immovable. On the second pedestrian gate they have added 2 hidden bolts to the hinge so it can't be opened! #landaccess #scotland #pentlands28 Mar 2026 19:44 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mi5fg6qcnu2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mhegl3ouyp2eA beautiful thing! #eurovelo18 Mar 2026 21:28 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhegl3ouyp2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mheg7o342b2pRode down the coast and on the way took a look at the modernist Royan church. Made of concrete in 1958 after the heavy bombing of Royan in 1945. Apparently the concrete In the walls is only 10 cm thick. Surprisingly nice inside.18 Mar 2026 21:22 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mheg7o342b2phttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mh4r7ck3e72bBordeaux seems pretty cool. Loads of proper cycle paths and pedestrianised areas. Passing through on way to visit my folks here for first time in 8 years! Had lunch in a interesting old warehouse area full of cafes and art stuff.15 Mar 2026 20:17 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mh4r7ck3e72bhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mgkvoi6x4q2mHad an excellent ride in the Galloway forest. Cold foggy start, but it brightened up later on. Saw a quite big newt hanging out on a track road. Some really fun trails through the woods at the end! #mountainbiking08 Mar 2026 17:49 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mgkvoi6x4q2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mgkvlg647q2mHad an excellent ride in the Galloway forest.

But did climb the nearby hill with my daughter. Crazy windy up there! Interesting activity in the harbour where there's a big ship with towers and wind turbine towers ready for the wind farm being built nearby out at sea.01 Mar 2026 18:05 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfzdcv4mte2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mew4uizg5g2zBeautiful up above the snow line in the forest today. #walking #Aberfeldy15 Feb 2026 18:07 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mew4uizg5g2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3metldt4qdy25Loads of hair ice around on a walk today. Never seen it before. Apparently temperature has to be just right and a specific type of fungus has to be in the wood. #winter #hairice14 Feb 2026 17:48 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3metldt4qdy25https://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3meije4hdo42aAnother lovely foggy weekend ride. Saw almost no one else. Took lots of new paths. A fair bit of pushing over moorland. Stopped in a remote foggy woodland for lunch and listened to an owl hooting. #mountainbiking10 Feb 2026 08:13 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3meije4hdo42ahttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3me2pnp42yg26Some photos from a misty ride. Nice to to do a proper day long ride. Found an old bunker. Weird old BT phone box on top of the grassy bunker mound with some old mechanical equipment installed in it. Maybe a disguise? #mountainbiking04 Feb 2026 20:28 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3me2pnp42yg26https://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mcmr3lpvpd2uMy home grown oyster mushrooms are ready.

Snow and Ice made the trail tough at times but the forest was beautiful! Did 11 laps which I'm pretty happy with given the conditions. 2 punctures, one out on a lap so had to run the rest of the lap 😆. Great atmosphere!12 Jan 2026 19:41 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mcasb4nyoy2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3mamb5uvx372mFoggy Solstice ride. Was nice out, despite the lack of sunlight. No wind, not much rain. Climbed the big hill. #biking #scotland22 Dec 2025 22:16 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3mamb5uvx372mhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m7gjhkqz4x2zFound some "Star Jelly". According to legend, dropped to earth during meteor showers. Some think it's a type of fungus. Others think it from predators who have eaten frogs regurgitating the same chemicals used to create frog spawn. Tales of it dropping from the sky! Thought it was ice at first.07 Dec 2025 22:03 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m7gjhkqz4x2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m7giu2pisc2gGreat walk up the hills behind Balqhidder. Aborted our original plan as the weather looked bad. Did some off-path exploring and climbed/slid long way down a steep stream side to return. #walking #scotland07 Dec 2025 21:53 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m7giu2pisc2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m6uzs2olb52wSome mushroom photos from a bike ride last night and this morning. Sulphur Tuft I think. Yellow staghorn. #mushrooms30 Nov 2025 23:08 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6uzs2olb52whttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m6uzhjylk32eCold ride over the Theives Road, an old drover road often used to move stolen livestock. Frozen mud made the trails fun and faster in places. Nice to see the low winter sun. #biking30 Nov 2025 23:02 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6uzhjylk32ehttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m6d55edhou2tWell this is a new one! Broken rear axle. Weirdly serrated break as well. The pedals were stuck and suspected a seized crank bearing but..nope. Weird as I last rode this bike a few weeks ago (down the West Highland way) and it felt fine. Anyone seen this before? #mountainbiking #biking #cycling23 Nov 2025 20:20 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6d55edhou2thttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m6c5mqrjup2gDespite it being cold and a bit damp, had a lovely ride yesterday.

Much nicer weather and really enjoyable (apart from the infamous section). #WHW #biking #cycling #Scotland05 Nov 2025 23:39 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4w7vazdzn22https://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m4w6zk7wnf2lNext day I rode down the West Highland way to Crianlarich in terrible weather. Heavy rain all day. Swollen and sketchy river crossings. Very windy on mountain tops. Bit uncomfortable but not cold. Beautiful scenery though! #biking #cycling #scotland05 Nov 2025 23:24 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4w6zk7wnf2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m4w67xk3xr2kFew days off. First day; I headed up north to Fort William where I did some local pottering about on my bike for a few hours before it got dark. #cycling #biking #scotland05 Nov 2025 23:09 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4w67xk3xr2khttps://bsky.app/profile/adamblair.bsky.social/post/3m445kw34ui2eSome great mushrooms up north!26 Oct 2025 14:48 +0000at://did:plc:7dah33luhr62q32wsmz5ij2w/app.bsky.feed.post/3m445kw34ui2e
