    Tuesdays..?
    Lustleigh..?

    That’s standard procedure for me usually.. I’m not sure if I can get a pass though after yesterdays Dartmoor extravaganza with crispybacon.. I’ll run it past Mrs Y and let you know..
    what time were you planning..?

    don’t mind so long as it’s not too early o’clock, 10.30-11 ish or afternoon if it eases a pass for you.

    It’s worth trying to wangle a day off work just for another slice of Yunki’s cake….but alas it’s not going to happen.

    Enjoy

    Unfortunately working all week, but would love to be shown some new trails over that way. Please post if you guys are getting together at the weekends!

    Also, last Thursday night [night before royal wedding etc] I passed a big group of MTBer’s in Buckfastleigh, was that any of you lot? I don’t normally see many MTB riders in Buckfastleigh and wondered who they were!

    thanks Trailmonkey..
    absolutely cracking day out today.. good company.. my legs are hanging off and I saw far more Cleavage than any decent and upright citizen should.. I nearly fell asleep in the carpark after you left..

    I’ve spoken to the boss and she has made it clear that I’ve used up my allowance for this week.. although I will probably get to take yunki Jr out on the back of the bike for a spin round the explorer trail at Haldon on friday morning..

    I’ll definitely be up for something next week though..

    thanks again

    I’ll be riding up to the moor from Drum Bridges roundabout kind of area.. there’s a marked cycle route from the new Newton Abbot hospital to Drum Bridges.. I don’t know if you know it..?
    You have to pass that way to get to the moor..

    Meet at Drumbridges roundabout about 10:30am then? Got an idea of distance/climbing/time/what tyres? 😀

    Ok.. well.. I usually like to be home in time for my tea.. 🙂

    we’ll climb a few thousand feet throughout the day.. in around Lustleigh will take at least a couple thousand in itself.. won’t be a great amount of distance covered.. maybe 30 – 35k..?

    Tyres for rocks will be your best bet although the granite is very grippy.. knackered old nevegals for me..
