First proper #gravel ride of 2026, seen here on the path in #ReddishVale. This starts as mud, then gravel, over field run-off drains, then bricks and stones before mud and dirt and then a few cobbles. Great fun. Always great to be back on the #NorthRoadCycles #GraviTi . #cycling #GravelRide #VeganCyclist #OutsideIsFree #BikeTooter #BikeToot #Bicycle

After a short while, due the new-ish Ekar rear mech dying, the North Road Cycles Grav-i-Ti is back on - and off - the road. That was like riding a new bike. Amazing! #cycling #NorthRoadCycles #gravel #GravelRide #GravelBike #ReddishVale #FromWhereIRide #OutsideIsFree #Campag #Ekar #BikeTooter #BikeToot

Another dinner time ride, another 30 minutes of fun on the gravel bike. It was nice to head down to Reddish Vale, take in the River Tame meandering through the viaduct, before the bone-shaking drag back to Denton. Quality.

What a joy the weather has been this weekend - not typical Bank Holiday weather at all - so we’re here in #ReddishVale making the most of it. #DogWalk #DogsOfMastodon #Easter
