As we approach the end of the first working week of 2016 we think it’s time for a dose social media silliness to see us over the line.

Here’s our pick of the best Tweets and Instagrams from the past 7 days.

1. The Dirt Factory is hoping to be Britain’s first indoor bike park situated in Manchester. Reckon you would use it to escape the winter blues?

Just imagine riding inside in 2016! Here are a few visuals for you guys, our crowdfunding begins 1st Feb.

2. We’re not quite sure Andreu Lacondeguy has got the enduro look fully sussed out…

This guy is so enduro… NOT.

3. Josh Bryceland is still living out his hippy dream on his canal barge, you can get a guided tour from the man himself here.

The planet’s on a wavey mission! Buds on the trees, must feel like spring

4. Dan Atherton has launched into 2016 with more digging, this project looks like another big one!

Another new year, another new line! No rest here in The Dyfi!

5. This announcement flew under the radar a bit but it looks like Cube will be fielding a downhill team in 2016. Can we expect a new bike? Who will ride for them? All these questions and more will apparently be answered on January 25.

6. They may come from a roadie but these are words we can all live by

7. We love this shot from Laurence Crossman-Emms

8. Greg Minnaar pays tribute to Burry Stander on the third anniversary of his death.
