Beat the Winter Blues

Photo epic from the Cotic CC winter ride

Last weekend we hosted the 4th annual Beat the Winter Blues ride for our owners club, Cotic CC. For the first time, it didn't snow! Glorious blue skies and a brisk temperature were the order of the day, and around 30 of us took to some classic Dark Peak trails.

Boss man Cy lead the way up a muddy first climb onto Win Hill, before pedalling into a meaty headwind on the way to the top of The Beast, a legendary Peaks descent.

All in one piece, we climbed again and flew down The Screaming Mile, where Darren foolishly sat right next to a stream crossing with his camera! He got wet, but this photo was worth it.

The stoke carried us back up the hill for a run down Hagg Farm, with Sam and Cy holding the gates meaning everyone got a flying run down, a rare treat.

Pints in the pub was a perfect end to a great day in the hills with a top bunch of riders.

Big thanks to everyone who came along, it was a brilliant day out with a top bunch of riders on a variety of different Cotics. Keep an eye out for the next Cotic CC event, they always book up fast. We are open to suggestions for CC events too, so get in touch if you have any ideas. Remember, if you own a Cotic, you're in the club.
