Saturday Beachride...


Saturday see me down town at North Berwick for an afternoon low tide cycle with friends Brian and Craig, Good company and banter as always it was not the normal NB - Sub wrecks- NB  ride ala Forth Fat but we rode out to the Peffer burn estuary then followed the burn inland as the sun warmed our backs to cross the mud flats via the cockle shell beds, surrounded by groups of hundreds of Geese arriving and leaving,
We came a cross a bed settee left by the last tide bang in the middle of the bay!, where the heck that came from who knows...
Amazing Apple and Cinnamon ice cream at Cools shop in Gullane before riding a new technical trail that will be an optional extra loop on the Saturday on next years Forth Fat 16 Fatbike Gathering, by the time we got back to NB the sun had set and we had been out 7 hours, a fantastic day on the coast...
