24 Mar Finally went out and found the fun bike stuff at #HanhamWoods today. Discoverd a lovely spot with some jumps and a great step-up jump with a mellow take-off. Perfect for relearning how to jump a bike again.I'm still unable to jump well at all but it was nice getting a tickle at it and getting both wheels in the air after such a long time.After about 45mins, I met @kaievesphotography and had a great chat about jumping bikes, we jumped our bikes and soon after I was knackered from all the pushing back up the hill. I fired off a few shots of Kai looking like a badass and then headed back home.#MTB #mountainbikers #MountainBiking #MountainBiker #DirtJump #DirtJumping #BristolRiders #bristolmtbriders #middleagedmtb #Bristol #BristolLife Posted at 19:48h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

08 Mar Ruth, Aoibheanna, Nancy, Sandra, Angie, Mine, Shirley, Rebekah, Sarah, Lucy, Naomi, Carolyn, Mandy, Kate, Sarah, Ruth, Jo, Nicky, Emma, Catherine, Elizabeth, Margarida…This is just the tip of the iceberg of the list of women who have influenced my life and helped make me the person I am today. These women and the others who are not listed are incredible, strong, wonderful and mighty people. On this #InternationalWomensDay I will be doing my part to be forging a world where we let go of the ways of old that treat women anything less than the incredible people they were born to be.I #ChooseToChallenge anything or anyone who falls short of this simple task. There are no excuses!#ThePatriarchyIsOver#iwd2021#FujiShooter #fujifilmxt4 #fujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujixseries #fujilove #Photographer Posted at 19:48h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

06 Mar Finally hung @rufus2612 birthday present on our living room wall. Very pleased with the results although will probably rework or add to some of the tiles as life goes on.Really impressed with the very simple and affordable system from @mixpix_meWill be interested to see how they hold up long term and if we'll be able to easily remove the magnets on the wall! 🙄#MixPix #PhotoWall #PhotoMontage #LivingRoom #HomeStyle #HomeDecor #FamilyPortraits #FamilyPhotos #FamilyPhotoWall Posted at 13:27h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

04 Mar Final day of #homeschooling for me with these two. They go back to school on Monday and even though its been really difficult and it's tested my resolve to the limit and there's been shouting and crying and throwing of things and tantrums and many levels of a**eholery, I'm feeling sad as I know I'm gonna miss being with them all the time… So today, we started our homeschooling as usual. They got out the notepad, wrote their names on the top of their sheets and we started the first lesson. However, I told them I wanted to try something for that exercise and started to type a message on the screen that suggested instead of doing any work, that we should go find ice-cream instead. This was met with much agreement and we had a lovely morning down by the docks.I flipping love these two!#DaddingHard #LoveHer #MyLittleChicken #OhMyBeatingHeart #LoveHim #magnificentlittleman #homeschool #fujifilmxt4 #fujifilm #fujifilm_xseries #fujixseries #blackandwhite #fujilove #fujifilm Posted at 18:00h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

19 Oct Really enjoying the rides and starting to feel like I'm getting fitter. Still a long way to go before the confidence I once had returns.There's lots of muscle memory that has faded or is not as willing and the post ride aches are rife. Hoping that winter wont be a harsh one and I'll be able to ride frequently and more importantly that I'll actually want to ride.#feelingthankful #blessed #MountainBiker #MountainBiking Posted at 12:12h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

12 Oct When you see it sometimes you've just got to stop, ask the family to be patient with you while you capture a beautiful moment.This was taken on my phone somewhere near #Henfield in North Bristol yesterday.Wish I'd had my big camera. #blackandwhite #contrast #countryside #BritishCountryside #farm #fields #smoke #mist #fog #fogbank Posted at 17:43h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

08 Oct Had a brilliant ride today mainly because the rain stayed away but it was a real technical challenge in places. First time on Super Nova and 50 Acre. Nova was great but very wet and some large lake-like puddles. I came off and jumped into a tree to avoid face-pls tiong into it on a section of dropoffs that I simply forgot about. Came away unscathed! Super Nova top section was nice and flowy but the lower section was not fun on 24" wheels.50 Acre Woods was really technical and rooty so was just harsh in the wet. Spent most of it groaning at the wheels slipping out. Fast dirt-jump tyres are not the best to use.I'm wet, muddy but happy.#BackOnTheBike #freelancer #mountainbikers #MountainBiking #MountainBiker #Trails #Bristol #50AcreWoods #AshtonCourt #NovaTrail #SuperNovaTrail #BristolMountainBikers Posted at 18:05h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...

28 Sep Two weeks ago while we were out for a #familywalk in #LeighWoods I picked up one of the many acorns that were covering the forest floor.This lol guy had rolled onto some stones and was destined to be bird food or to be trampled.I put him in my pocket, took him home and planted him in a pot.Two weeks later and look at him! He's sprouted!#BabyOakTree #BabyTree @oaktreeacton #proud #ProudButClueless Posted at 17:27h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram... Read More
21 Sep Yes, there's dirt on her face, a graze on her chin and a chip on the helmet and she got right back on and ride home!My legend of a wife @rufus2612 had her first crash today when she decided to take an unplanned nap in a ditch by the side of the path. She rolled perfectly in and prevented doing much damage bar some scrapes and bruises.Totally and madly proud of her.#MTB #mountainbikers #MountainBiking #MountainBiker #FirstCrash #FacePlant #LoveHer #Wifey #BeautifulButTough Posted at 15:55h in Photos by Mark 0 Comments Share from Instagram...
