TRAVERSE 59
rocky river bed, which was great fun. Also, not being downhill meant I was much more willing to give it a go and it went well. Whoop whoop! Faith in self restored.
Then the next challenge... get up the hillside which looked like it was a steep uphill followed by a stepped bank. I got up out of the river bed quite well then started climbing the hill. The bike was more than capable, but a short hesitation on my part meant I stalled it on a rather steep bit, so me and the poor bike ended up on the ground. The bike didn ' t seem too bothered though and amazingly I managed to pick it up.
