Really loving the whole bikepacking thing at the moment.
Thanks to the gruesome twosome for playing out.
Location was up above Todmoordon - about half a mile from Stodley Pike.
Gator and Sherbs had done a reccy beforehand and found a fantastic location.
"Look up the history of the farmhouse", says Gator, "because you love being full of trivia shit".
Wish I hadn't bothered!
3 Dead bodies have been found in the ruins in the last 6 years!
Shitting bricks I was!
Excellent time yet again.
Start...with a pint and "Juicy Lucy Burger" - feel free to admire the profile:

Its hard work pedaling the mule:

"Not another uphill bit"

"I've seen a corpse"

"Its killing me"

"Thank fuck its the top"

The murder house comes in to view....

Setting up camp in the garden:

Full moon!!

Mule & Moon

The house:

Campfire:

Campsite:

GHOST!!!!!!!

Roof could come down at anytime...

Mad mans eyes!

Stoke the flames:

Spicy:

Nothing but moonlight:


Toasty warm:

First light:

Easier going downhill:



Makes you glad to be alive:

The DH was hard work on fully loaded hardtails. Still fun though.

It's party time with Sherby's single malt. 
On the way to the Ghost House


The ghost had left its mark as a warning to all wild campers .........

.............. and you don't get any more wild or camp than these two. 
Bear Grylls Gator

Time to warm up 
Full moon


When all the little campers were fast asleep .................. the ghost of Gollum came out to do a bit of haunting. 
It was just getting too scary, so they decided to leave early in the morning.
