    Cycling

    700ft of flatstick floaty gravel decent full of touchy feely trailing the back brake; drifting the rear laterally through your cleats and dive bombing the hairpins before squaring off the tip - in & sprinting the big ring out the exit back up to pace. This combined with the dropdead view of Coniston water, 20C sunshine and YT music picking the '92 white label of Ntrance's set you free through my headphones makes this a memory that'll stick for a long time.
