    erm – ‘scuse my ignorance. Do you all ride to The Granary or stick the bikes in the car & leave the car at the Granary Car Park?

    I’d be up for a bit of a ride around at some point – but not sure I wanna ride from Deeping to Ferry Meadows, then do another 20 miles on top & then cycle back to Deeping…..
    Could probably do it in warmer weather though!

    Won’t be able to make this evening anyway, unfortunately as I will still be driving home from work at 6pm.
    Definitely be up for riding another time though…..

    Tim,

    Happy Christmas! Is there reasonable riding to be had from the Granary then? I have often got meetings at Thorpe Wood round the corner – could be a good way to get a ride in the evening from there.

    You can pull together reasonable routes starting from there, but it’s really just a fairly central place to meet up. You can defintely pull together a relatively interesting xc route from Thorpe wood, there isn’t a huge amount of singletrack, but enough to make it entertaining.

    And it’s only just clicked. Hi Matt, Happy Christmas. What on earth brings you down here for meetings?

    In summary: Frozen, Cold, Icy, but good riding and great pub fires.

    Hope to see you next time.
