Default Re: Bibio's Sunday Bimbles

your more than welcome to join the bimbles anytime. most are not so exciting as that though as that route is one of the best. the road surfaces might be a bit ermmm dodgy but its worth it.

not luck, rider control of situation. a lot of people would have just crashed. mark it up to experience and pin a badge. double apex corners catch a lot of people out.

i get target fixation on one corner every fekin time and its a road i know very well but i still do it. the road we took from st mary's over the hill to innerleithen there is a left hand bend with a drain grate that is sunk into the road on a bad surface and its on the inside apex, i go over it every time. i have ridden that road since i was a teen.
