    I like the video but can we change the music and the frame rate?

    I might have ordered the bits for Caroline’s bike by then so expect a two pronged attack

    I reckon I actually might be able to make this one, though I’ll have to check with Mrs Monkey. Anyone coming from Hull way?

    I may well be able to get a pass off th emissus, just depends what the doctor says about riding, he may put some unreasnoble restriction on me like “no crashing”.

    We’ll see.

    Anyone else doing up for a car park bivi beforehand? I’ll bring the bacon and eggs.

    Looks like I’m allowed, and can have the car. Woo yeah!

    depends on the size of the group and the route as to whether Mrs Podge comes, she’s still in one hill winter mode and doesn’t like large sausage fest groups… so drinking trousers may not be required, your cricket box is another matter though as I believe you are due a hoof in the pods

    I might come along. I’ll probably ride over from the Manchester side of things if anyone fancies a warm-up.

    I’m in but in no way will I ever ride Pindale again!

    Because we hid your bike or because you can’t ride down a straight farm track with a few stones on it?

    Because its supa-GNAR 😆

    Wait… Stones? There are STONES in the Peak? I thought we were just going to be flumping down a gently packed bed of fluffy kittens?

    You’ll never ride pindale however you insist on riding cavedale whenever possible!

    I rather like Fluffy Kittens (nee. The Beast). I wouldn’t describe my technique in getting down it as ‘flumping’ though, it’s distinctly more rattly than that.

    Heheh, my post may have been a masked reference to the KittenBeast

    I agree with Hora, can we do Cavedale?

    Given the argument for the September one I was expecting full on RAD-ness from Pindale, but then again I was on the Pitch which makes everything easy.

    Plus Pindale- how many people had pinchflats on there? It was like the Charge of the Light Brigade, finding yourself alone amongst the Russian guns 😯

    Ooh Cavedale, I’ve been down that (well the bottom half) with it covered in ice. Mince-core lite was the approach then. A little better and I might get to jey-core!!

    Last time I did Cavedale I cleared it. First time in many a year, but I was a happy happy man!

    I normally dab two or three times.

    It is fun though.

    I’ve only ever done Cavedale once, on my first ever trip to the Peak after having only ever ridden trailcentres. Scared me a bit!
