Bonus Posted May 12, 2019 Author Posted May 12, 2019 This weekend I'm riding the trails of Zona Zero with my friend Sebastian from France. The trails are dry and the sun is shining . . . . Spanish is our common language - so "Google Translate" comes in useful! BigDL 1

Bonus Posted May 18, 2019 Author Posted May 18, 2019 Guiding Rodney from Zaragoza yesterday on a cracking XC route around the trails of Zona Zero! We did a bit of everything - some technical climbing, fire roads, singletrack and some pretty demanding descents. It had been raining, so the trails were slick - but it was great fun. We climbed around 727m over 32.37km in 2.5hrs of riding . . . Today we're going to do a similar ride . . . but with more climbing BigDL, RossW and BuffsVintageBikes 3

Bonus Posted May 18, 2019 Author Posted May 18, 2019 (edited) 2nd Day of Guiding with Rodney today . . . We did another cracking XC route with more technical singletrack climbing and some pretty tricky descents. Today we climbed 728m over 29.85km in 2.5hrs of riding.... We actually climbed 1m more today than yesterday and rode for 16 seconds longer - how's that for consistency? Edited May 18, 2019 by Bonus BigDL and BuffsVintageBikes 2
Bonus Posted May 19, 2019 Author Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) My last day of guiding Rodney from Zaragoza today. He's an American married to a Spaniard and he's lived here for 30 years. He has a great sense of humour and is about the same fitness as me - so it's been great fun. Today we kept it short & steep and climbed the track from Ainsa up to the Partara summit. The first half of the trail is technical and has a mental gradient - more than 10% in places. The second half of the climb is a bit easier, but only a bit! The view from the top, which I've posted on here before, makes it all worthwhile though and coming down the "Partara Express" is just magic :-) Edit: I'm not going to comment on my clients dress sense today . . . .

Bonus Posted May 23, 2019 Author Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Had a "day off" after my three days of guiding, then got a call to go help out at the Campsite where I sometimes work.... ...so yesterday was Cross Training day . . . walked nearly 27,000 steps . . . .behind a lawnmower! :-) Edited May 23, 2019 by Bonus Albatross, BigDL and RossW 3

Bonus Posted May 24, 2019 Author Posted May 24, 2019 Got a call at work yesterday morning from a guy who wanted to hire a bike and ride some trails. I was busy until 7pm so we met up just after that and put 25km and 470m of climbing behind us in short order! Great way to unwind after a day at work :-) RossW and BigDL 2
