sorry, pics not too good………….bit like the weather…… 😉

what time did you get back as me and taka ended up goin down the bluepig trail?

Pity the poor sods doing the MTL challenge! Weather looks a bit epic, glad my excess weight and lack of fitness kept me home.

Not enough cake!!

a bit ashamed here guys

didn’t get up till 11 so missed it all.

looks bloody wet

hopefully ill get fitter before the next one so i dont have to drop out on the first climb…

good to see some pics, cheers ton. still annoyed I wasn’t well enough to make it but glad you had fun without me 8) 🙂

Route work out ok? Must admit, I was planning a small hour ride this morning and sacked that off as soon as I saw the weather!

Mention in despatches by the looks of it

NNNNNNNNNNOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo 😯

Tony, any chance you can ermail me those group photos and my watersplash one – yoshimi176@hotmail.co.uk

That water splash over Sheddon looks pretty full. Been dunked in there once or twice.
Just behind there is a long metal raised pipe about 4ft diameter, that makes for entertaining, group riding in the wet……………. 8)

Calderdale is sublime riding – just don’t go there when it’s wet 🙂 My favourite is when it’s frozen solid!

Yeh, I’ve never seen that watersplash that full!

Glad the route worked out. Take it Dale took you past that little hamlet where the BW goes between two of them and down ‘the slug’ (twisty rocky bit that spits you out in a car park?). Theres another descent from there which I think if anything I prefer. Faster and rockier but always dead slippy as its on a big sweeping corner.

Glad it sounded like a good un. Good turnout too despite the conditions!

My hangover lasted all Day. Pretty gutted really as I love a good old “laughing in the face of adversity” type of ride.

Looks like I cant make KS either 🙁

Daughters birthday on the Monday.
