Well i headed out this morning about 9 ish for some exploring.
I wanted to do some mapping with the gps for Open street maps.I upload a lot of my gpx's here and add to the map.I have mapped Somerset and surrounds but now i am venturing out further.
Here is a map of the route motowhere.com not a bad place to upload gps routes.
Just a few pix

While out i decided to go check ou the Monkey Puzzle Tree and find a geocache while i was there. My first attempt failed as you can see road tyres and moss don't work.

Another 500 mtrs and i decided that the Wee strom is not a mountain goat and wont go up this track with these shoes on.

Back to the t junction and go the other way for about 2 k and come upon this, me thinks it would be bloody fun but not on me own, hard to push bike by self

This was another track on the way home, very slippery with road style tyres.
