Having started a ‘Where do you live’ thread, there seem to be plenty of riders around Leeds and above (Sheff and Bradford inc) and wondered if anyone fancied a weekend out and about?

Anyone fancy it?

Just post a start location and time, and have a route in mind. I’m sure people will turn up.

Yup, right day and I’d be there. So long as I wasn’t the only one.

Don’t ask them for any money tho!

I’ve got no route in mind, more that I want to ride with some new/more folk.

I quite like it up around the North York Moors; if anyone want to suggest routes lets get it started 😀

if i’m free i’m in

even if no one has a route/ want to lead we could alway hit a trail centre – dalby, gisburn?

Be up for it after June 14th! Work coming out of my ears till then. Bloody nhs.

Oh alright, I’ll lag behind. (I mean ‘come along’) As long as you pick my weekend off & don’t do a trail centre. Some good routes on the NYM & Dales to look at.

Count me in. Yorkshire Dales or something outside the Peaks would be good.

If anyone driving past York to a ride and has space onboard/wants to share fuel costs……

If wherever the ride is is up the A1 then no probs

i may join you for a spin if it is ok for me to drag a leccy bike round.

I’ll bring a rope Ton, we’ll take turns at hauling you along.

sounds good mate 😀

I’m in if I’m off and my shoulder is working.

if not at work up for it.

Ton, what kind of ‘gradient’ does the leccy bike allow you to ride?

I’ll try and think of a route

matt, it managed rooley moor road and salter fell.

Think i could cope with ‘Bingley Bash’?

yeah i reckon so.

Right then, whats everyone doing on sunday?

Shall we say meet outside Bingley station at 9:30 for a 10:00 start.

If my memory serves me right its about 15 miles, mostly bridleways and a bit of road, with one or two technical parts. Gentle spin, bit of banter and a pint at the end.

Ton: convince Chew to go anti-clockwise so you can cruise all the way up Altar Lane whilst everyone else grinds their way up 😆

Working. Arse. If there’s a summer one i’m in

I’m away with work tonight and got builders in so at mother in laws for two weeks 🙁 but as we’ve got interest I’ll speak to the gatekeeper tomorrow and identify a date (likely in May).

I’ve got a Mondeo estate and and can fit me+3 from Leeds area.

Do you mean this Sunday, Chew?
I’m in if you do.

Yes, this Sunday the 22nd.

Was planning on going anticlockwise

stupid question… is it bumpy? Reason I ask is I dislocated my shoulder in Feb and this’ll be my first off road ride..

Got my kids so cannot make it
have fun

matt, i am out mate.
moving the lad this sunday, to his gf’s.
and waiting for new chain/stuff for the leccy bike.

Well its off-road so there will be bumps 8O. Plenty of bail-out options by road back to Bingley though.

I’m out as well, too short notice as I’ve got my eldest up from Laandon.

I’m out every Sunday morning with a couple of others EARLY(7 ish start), but start from the Queensbury/Shelf end and generally do 2 to 3 hours finishing back in Shelf/Queensbury! We sometimes do the Ogden routes, but also head down towards Brighouse and do the Norland Moor, Southowram routes. If any one fancy’s joining us then you are more than welcome!
Get in touch if you can make one in!
Tim.
