First proper ride out for 2025. This time on the full sus. Frosty and icey so very cold. Toes did start to go numb by the end, back to the sweet shop in Beeding. Nice views with a casual fog / mist in the distance. Added some downhill trails on the way back.

The one that didn't get finished. Needed a ride to clear my head. Last time I rode parts of these trails was on BMX for the South Downs Way challange.
This time went out on the full sus. Despite news, there is no water tap at Truleigh Hill. Next water stop was Lewes.
20miles in, puncture and guess what

South Downs Way on BMX
Not Recommended. Organised event with Trail Break. The South Downs Way is something I've wanted to do but over 2 days and take in the country side I'm travelling through.
Then Trail Break event popped up - 14 1/2 hours time limit, 1 day so ok, let's give it a go.
The weather did and

Practice and recce before Sat 6th South Downs Way attempt on the BMX.
Used the full sus 29'er on this route. Across the rough it's roughly the same pace as I will be on the BMX. The steep hills I will need to get off and push. The full sus, 1st gear, sit down and pedal and I'm the same speed.

London to Brighton bike ride on a BMX . . . Not Recommended.
First time was last year with Skyline events. This year with BHF.
The difference this year - I cycled the whole thing including Ditching Beacon. Down side, someone forgot to turn the plug on the charger when plugged the charger cable to the

So the prep ride so e it's purpose, I know not to over trust a brand new chain. Granted, I do have some power in my legs, you have to to pedal a BMX
