gtmet countered with 'abandon all hope, ye who enter' attached to a pic of a track that looked like it would be fun to me.

That was the day I arrived home and discovered that the source of the creaking noise over the last few km was a broken rear axle.
To be fair to Sutton Lane, it will have been the cumulative result of forty two years use, not riding the first twenty yards along that fairly smooth track.

The endurance of nature to keep bouncing back despite the crap we leave behind us.

The combined age, or... enduring legacy... of these two veteran rocket ships is 52 years

Built for the invasion that never happened but the internal terror the poor buggers that manned it must have endured never knowing if this particular night in Hellfire Corner was the night it was on.

Dover Castle has endured over a thousand years of wars.

To be fair to the site, it has endured nearer at least 1,900 years of occasional war. The castle witnessed about half that history.

Warm winter sunshine but a memory.
Spring tests our endurance.
Brace yourself for the English summer!

4.5 miles north of Carlisle at 11:40 am on day 2 of a ride to Scotland from Pendle. Ended the day in Nithsdale having endured a twonked knee for the last 15 miles on day 2 and battling with boredom for the last 30 miles of day 1. Did my knee again last Sunday and have had to endure myself bleating about it for the last few days.

Speedy can sprint on occasion, but he’s more of an endurance athlete
