Pre Storm Arwen tailwind assisted cycle...

 

Theres a storm coming...




Not often we get a Red Warning but Friday evening was more like Armageddon Friday than Black Friday...

So we thought better get out a cycle before it arrived and be time to lockdown, and driving to NB we kept out the increasing NW Gale cycling west out through town then into the woods at Yellowcraig...



Across the beach and we flew down Broadsands! as the sand blew under our pedals...






22 mph! that's freewheeling standing up to catch the wind!...




At NB Harbour there was a fair amount of noise from rigging flapping in the Gale,  we rode round onto the east beach and again rode though the dancing swirls of sand back to the car park and the van...



Bikes back in van we headed home before things got dangerous and locked down for the windy night ahead...


Wee film of the cycle down through the sand....

More soon...
