My New Toy

I've got more free time and I've bought myself a mountain bike. It's a new experience for me and it feels a bit strange. I've been cycling for ages but that doesn't help so much when the trail gets technical. But learning is a big part of the fun...

Today I took my toy up a mountain I've flown over many times (and hiked and hiked+flown a few times) - le Petit Cordoeil. It took a long time to get up and I was down in a jiffy - a bit like ski-touring or hike and flies. I'm not sure if this is more or less dangerous than paragliding. In the meantime I remove my SPOT locator from my flight deck when I take my new toy out - just in case. A few more pics...  ...
