    They do, but it’s a pig to park and there’s very little space to put bikes. And it’s a monday night so 7% artisan craft IPAs might not be a good idea 😉

    Park? What is this you speak of?

    Also, Daz, we’re not going to reenact the last MNPR in Hebden. I was quite, quite hungover the next morning.

    All the beer in the Stubbings is of the old-man variety. Hangovers won’t be an issue.

    Yes, very much so on the beer front. New decor is…. unflattering though.

    For some reason I was expecting something along those lines to appear on this thread!

    To be fair, having seen some of the other offerings, you’ve let him off lightly. 😀

    Hmmm, beer ride in Hebden or curry ride in Huddersfield. Life is good when those are your dilemmas.

    andybrad; good point well made.

    So. Can someone with a van please pick up andy from Brighouse, then collect me as you drive past my house on Burnley Road? 😉

    sandwicheater – we have curry in Hebden. You could do both, in one place.

    moleskin you say, why you could make trousers from them there streets. But you’d have to make them in Hebden, nach.

    Bugger, bugger, bugger. Will be in the Lakes on Monday. Shame, I did Blue Pig / Lumb Falls / Peckett Well last weekend, for first time in over a year, and realised that I had forgotten how excellent the riding is around there. Not to mention the beer! Enjoy gents

    Turn up, ride bikes. Simple really.

    It never rains in the Valley.

    So whats the plan.

    As above. Tempting as it is to go for a full-on hebden tech-fest, I reckon we’ll stick to the tried and tested classics route. Popples-Blue Pig-Pecket Well.

    Or, I could bring people somewhere more esoteric?

    It will involve up obviously.
