Your magnet turns around?

It has to be turned so it doesn't catch on the Badass dongle

Thursley Common

Many happy hours spent round there - helping with conservation efforts.

You could probably do it more quickly if you didn't keep stopping for the photo opportunity.

Tubed or tubeless flat ?

Tubed, but didn't have a spare tube with me at the time. It was a pleasant walk home though!!

 

[The Bear]

New tube in and I’m back out exploring where I was yesterday. Came across a wooden bench with a great view...

Thursley common is fabulous. In truth better for walking than riding due to the deep sand. I skirted around the edge on that ride. My son and I walk there a lot and enjoy the boardwalk where you can see loads of different species of dragon fly and small reptiles skittering about as well as aerial displays of the many birds to be found there.

Hankley common has a large swathe of MOD land use and last year we were walking there when several patrols of troops set of from their hut in the plain all tooled up with their guns and equipment, it felt like we were in a Armageddon B movie.

Did you require a spare battery?

At the end of the ride, I had roughly a quarter of battery capacity left remaining on a second battery.

Other than an estimated two miles, the ride was ridden using tour, with the estimated two miles being ridden in eMTB mode. The first battery expired at 31 miles.

The distance from 18 miles to 23 miles was all but flat, and ridden above the legal cut off point.

My brother lives in Woodingdean, it seems a lovely ride.
Old haunts for me too.

You know the shortest distance between two points is a straight line Eddie?

That helped me see the kind of places you might have steep climbs. That combined with the post on another thread showing the width of roads in the UK makes me happy to ride where I do.

 

[georgehenry]

That looks like a fantastic ride Eddie.

It is the right time of year to do it.

I came home from work last night/early morning around 01:30AM following in parts the valley of the river Wey and there were small patches of thick mist. The temperature had also fallen away quite markedly.
