WORDS TIM OATES
If I get out early in the morning, ride straight out of the car park and have a huge crash-and-burn, it’s the last run of the day. By definition. But I’m looking at something very different and very precise. I am talking about ‘Just One Last Run’.
‘Just one last run’ is when you think you’ve already finished for the day and have had a coffee, a wind-down and a chat. It’s early evening, the sun is still up, and while someone packs the wagon and you’re still in your kit, it seems right to sneak in a quick run down those trails you know so well from a day of riding. It’s getting late, you should be getting on the road, but what harm could a final run of the day do? After all, that last tabletop is bound to go this time.
