The weather wasn’t forecast to particularly nice, so I opted for a semi local destination of Aberfoyle.
I’ve ridden here a few time before, and know that it’s not the easiest place to ride, but this trip was slightly embarrassing on my part as I’ve never rode so inconsistently.

Here’s hoping next time out on the bike goes better than this.
