Intriguing but no, I still have no wish to see 'em.

I've seen Uncle Joe's, but not Sefton's.
How many do you get for 50p?Posted 1 year ago # -
Depends if it is the big one or the funny shaped one.

Me & a mate are in, see you then - if we can find the place!

Dead easy. Find the big urn outside The Grant's Arms in the middle of Rammy (think 10' up turned pot). Head up the hill 200m. Rose and Crown on corner.

Cracking ride and I got to touch a wind turbine. It was good to ride with some fellow STW botherers too. For those into ride stat's, our highest point was 640m bang on noon!

That was good fun. We should do it again some time.
Some pictures.

A Donald in Rammy?
Ramsbottom's topography must have changed a lot since I last visited

Cheers everyone, nice to put names to faces... What the flip happened to the wheel?

My ProTrek must have had a wobbler! For those into ride stat's, ignore my data! Soz.

Weather was lovely.
I wasn't going to take the camera out when it was lagging it down!
The weather wasn't too bad at all. Much better than the forecast.

it was my anniversary (wife wasn't best pleased when I suggested a day out riding)!

Looks like you had a good one. Is that pic of hts going to appear in the next Evans catalogue?

Video footage of me doing two SPD crapfallsâ„¢ due to a clogged cleat would be worth more.

BTW - you were spot on about the tailwind making the coal rd a tad easier.

Twas a crackin' ride. Cheers to HtS for organising it, to Papa Lazarou for local knowledge and to everybody else for good company and good craic. I is well impressed with Plummers riding skillz on the rigid SS (right up to the wheel folding incident) and Derek Starship's Soreen demolishing skillz. Innit. I was just glad I sensibly chose the full mudguards and a nice big bell option.
Keep an eye out for 'Mr Sparkle's Big Un' ride and BBQ.Posted 1 year ago # -
Lol the old woman and the bell incident made me chuckle
Posted 1 year ago # -
old woman? bell? do tell
Posted 1 year ago # -
Do 'toll', surely? ;0)
All the way round the ride I had had but narry an opportunity to ring my funky (ok, rusty) bell so, as we neared the end and I spied an old dear dithering on the kerb before plunging recklessly into the road, I thought 'Aha!' and, quick as you like, my right thumb got to work and a discordant tinkling noise rent the air. Needless to say the daft owd trout ignored it completely and blundered across the road anyway. I wasn't overly surprised by this turn of events though and skillfully carved round her. She was then killed by a 40' HGV with a HIAB on the back on it's way to Inverness.*

H - I'm fairly certain the rim is now a wall hanging objet d'arte
