Just a quick thanks to deejay for leading a fantastic ride as stated by all and sorting out car parking, stunning scenery, superb climbs and descents, and a fantastic group of people to ride with cheers. Hope to see you all again soon.

Just need to get a half a dozen more lengths delivered this week but pretty much done and case the edges - hardest part was getting the frame square and the right fall on it - resorted to having the dumpy level set up in the back garden - My neighbours thinkl I'm a bity of a geek now

Lowey has the MM route, with and without the extra bit - its 25-26 miles. Get him to send it to you.
bout 21 miles................my arse
That was the Peak District the week before - and it was, honest

I asked Andrea at the end of the ride, and I think she said around 25 miles.
