Girls weekend

Here at BeOutdoors.co.uk we grab any oppotunity to get away so with the boys away at cub camp, it was our opportunity for a cycling weekend in Scotland. Armed with bike, myself and a friend took our two 6 year old daughters up to Dumfries and Galloway in Scotland where we headed to one of the 7stanes Mountaining biking trails . We had a fabulous weekend with lots of tracks for the little ones to get there teeth stuck into, check out the website for more details.

Here's something to get you thinking:
Gore Countdown 3/4 Cycling Capri's

Saunders Mountain Marathon training starting

Having been off for the last few months recovering from an operation, I'm now back and training. Keeping it slow and short, which is quite frustrating, I can tell you.
To get me going I decided to treat myself to some new kit from our running stock (yes I still have to pay for it). I always find it works as a good motivator.
I purchased a new pair of gore sunlight lady capri's paired with my old trusty helly dynamic half zip, I was looking good!
So armed with my iPhone I was off, not the best run I've ever had but I've got to keep reminding myself that it's going to be slow.

BeOutdoors Team do it again!

Well done to Sue and Louise who won last weekends Open 5 adventure race in the hills round Ruthin - Wales
Sue was wearing her fabulous new RAB Jetstream Jacket The new lightweight waterproof jacket is made from Pertex Shield® fabric and is extremely light, packing up very small into its own bumbag. This Jacket is perfect for running and cycling when you want that extra protection without the weight and bulk or when you want to throw a waterproof in for those 'just in case' situtations. As you know we are a strong supporter of RAB Clothing and are very pleased to see this new addition to their already growing womens range.
On the bottom half Sue was wearing her Pearl Izumi Sugar Knickers. At BeOutdoors.co.uk. we have just started stocking the excellent brand of Pearl Izumi. This is a brand dedicated to meeting the needs of the serious sport enthusiast and has a great range of both running and cycling kit.
