Some photos taken from Saturday below. Every year Sheffield hosts a festival called 'The Outdoor city' to promote outdoor activities, part of which covers mountain biking with a mix of events from coaching companies offering newbie intro sessions at much reduced rates, kids events, and a dual-slalom urban race through the city centre. This year organisers added an informal 'party' at a local trail called Parkwood Springs located in the city on the grounds of the former dry-slope ski village (as seen in Steve Peats footage from the film 'Gamble').
Did a couple of hours of general messing about at the 'loam party' event including some dual slalom and trains before heading into the city centre for the evenings festivities at the urban dual-slalom race (stream replay on pinkbike).

Up until now I've purely done roads and farm lanes on the bike but I wanted to test it a bit further.
Nice 2km squared abandoned (for 20+ years) quarry with lots of lines and routes in it.
It performed very well and I'm impressed. Tyre's held up too despite all the large rocks, thorns and gorse. I wouldn't like to regularly subject the bike to these conditions though.

I haven't even seen any burnt shrub in fairness; fog was so dense I barely seen the trail ahead
Where were the fires?

In Lanzarote for a few days. I hired a MTB and did the 'trails' around the Caldera Volcan.
It was tough work: the trails were rough in most places but with some nice sweeping runs with natural berms.
I must say I was not impressed with this 1x10 gearing. It's OK at the low end but I ran out of gears once the speed picked up - whereas at this stage I'd have about 10 more gears to go on my traditional 3x10 setup.
