Geologist,
I think I know you. I may well have spent my summer in between collecting samples for my undergrad out on them thar hills, must have been around 1995?. Your folks literally just around the corner from North Malvern as you head to west?
Glad to see you're still at it

Hey,
Quite poss? It would have been 1995/96. I dont remember any other people collecting samples though? (apart from the guys with me). It was for my undergrad project too.
Is this too much of a coincidence? I dont think I know you, but you know too much
Can you shed more light, are you from Malvern too?

Summer 1995, yep, from Malvern, early evening rides from what I remember. I had 'worked' previously at Spokes and Saddles down the Link, sort of...I say worked..
christ knows what I was riding then though, can't remember what you were either. We'd tend to meet at clock tower and head up past Ivy scar etc...
I think you disappeared not long after that to go Scotland way..
could be...

There has not been a hotter Summer since the one of 95. Brown scorched grass everywhere

sorry mate, im useless I really dont remember?
I have seen your email addy in your prof and dont recognise the name.
I used to regularly ride with a guy called John from Suckley, Paul from B on T bikes and a guy called Sam who was in the Marines.
You seem to know my history a bit so it is likely its just my memory that has gone? Can you jog my memory some more?

yeah it was just that summer I think. I first met you heading up the track toward ivy scar. My folks stayed down Malvern Link, er, starting to struggle now....
Don't think you rode much with Paul et al then, but if you see him, tell him Nik with the long hair says Hi! he should know who I am, sort of.
I think it's safe to say I know who you are in any case..:-)
John from Suckley? used to lurk around here a bit and used to work in Spokes and Saddles when he was about 18 or so?

Haha, I know you now! It was the nik with the long hair bit that sparked a long lost memory
How you doing, blimey, bit of a blast from the past. Yeah it was John from spokes n saddles.

Any chance someone could stick this route on to memory map or similar? Looks like a nice bit of riding for a mid week jaunt!
