Hi!
I think the window of opportunity is closing, but there's just about time to squeeze this idea in before winter.
What did you do last night?
After work.
Me?
I ate, battled the kids into bed, then watched Netflix.
Pretty much the same as the night before.
And probably the same as tonight.
I suspect I'm not the only one.
Mid week, bikes and adventures don't get much of a look in.
Which was why I jumped at this idea when Chris Northover pitched it to me a few weeks ago.
"Greg, let's do a cheeky school night adventure.
A quick overnighter after work.
Pack up, hit the trails, sleep out, get back to work the next morning.
Turn the TV off and see how much we can fit in."
And so the 5 to 9 adventure was born.

Chris, Si, Steve, Adam and I had a blast, one of the best micro adventures I've had in a long while.
I know it's getting colder and darker, but I think you've got one last shot at ditching Netflix for an adventure night out, and turning up at your desk a bit stinky, a bit muddy and lot happier.
Book that youth hostel.
Sign your mate up.
It's shaping up to be a stunning autumn out there.
Let me know how you get on.
