Bring money for artisan beer

D’oh! We’re on holiday in Scotchland all week. Have fun!

At least we can be sure the pub will open. The alcoholics of Todmorden never rest.

Probably best bring a waterproof too 🙂

And odd socks…

I’ll be there, I’m afraid I’m bringing Tooney as well Daz…

Looks like I’m on taxi duty for the kids tomorrow night. I was hoping to get out seeing as normal service is resumed, and nobody cares if I spanner myself. Hey ho!

Who’s in then? The weather is about as good as it’s going to get, the trails are bone dry, it’s daylight til about 10pm, and the pub will be open. There really is no excuse*.

Parking is limited around the pub but there’s usually space on Longfield Road behind it. Also plenty of parking at the Station and/or Morrisons which are both very close by.

*Unless you don’t like riding uphill.

I’m afraid I’m bringing Tooney as well Daz…

Excellent! I’ll bring some ear-plugs then 😉

I’ll pop out Daz. SS and weak legs.

FYI, it was raining when I left this morning 🙂

I’m in.

I’m in.

nope. sore plums. no riding for a couple of weeks or so.

I’m in

In there like swimwear.

Looks like quite a crowd. Just got to think of a route now 🙂

Any requests?

I’ll pop out Daz. SS and weak legs.

Probably rules out Doghouse lane then 😯

I’m going to give this one a miss chaps. Its mainly a case of CBA due to a cold that’s appeared in the last couple of days. Might have a slow ride by the river on my own later if can move my lazy arse.
Enjoy the sunshine ride.

This must be a new excuse I’m not coming now as I have just locked myself out of the garage and the spare key is with the wife she is at work. Not a happy bunny

Crow bar? Battering ram? Smash the door in with the car?

Excellent. https://www.strava.com/activities/1066193865

Next week… ROAD BIKES!

So not only was that an ace ride, but the 3rd pint came with a discount.

Apololgies for doghouse lane BTW, but it’s a Tod rite of passage, and we only went halfway up.
