O.k Pook will give it a go , should be entertainin for everyone else anyway .

Definitely NOT riding this weekend. I am working at a bike demo day down at Bedgebury.

another regular out!

:O

It means that I won't be able to give Tom a lift up either so you could be two riders down.

mister p is my usual chauffeur so if anyone from nottingham or who passes m1 j25 has a spare seat in return for petrol money id be very grateful 8)

Phew- Im still hot to trot (keeping my knackered Lyriks for the weekend/sending them off on Monday).

skiprat, keep them. sell them to someone who has the money for them, i wont for atleast a month im afraid, sorry about that. give me a bell if you still have them then though 🙂

pook, by mam tor descent do you mean down to hollins cross and down from there or is there a secret one i dont know about? wondering because i went up to hollins cross yesterday and it was absolutely horrible, really deep mud on all but the rocky bits.

Is it ok if I tag along? Coming from Notts so can collect slowrider on the way if necessary.

Its an open invite, anyone can join in

nice one carbis 😀

Sam – there's a drop from Mam Nick to Edale. Technical and fast, but I can guarantee someone will fall off!

Oh, you can probably count me in too! …this sounds like something I could do (on my 33rd +1day birthday) 😀

Probably count me out, hopefully I'll be booking my Japan / NZ flights that morning

Okay… I've scanned up and down this thread, but am no wiser: when / where are we meeting? 🙂

^
I believe its Edale car park at 10am Sat 27th. please correct me if i'm wrong, Its somewhere on the thread about page 5!

sounds right to me. got some new flats today, same colour as my bike 😀

Slowrider, I have mailed the e-mail address in your profile so you can let me know where / when you want collecting for Saturday.

Yes look out for this guy in the carpark. Dont recognise him? Look out for someone falling off his bike there..

cannot make this ride now, riding on sunday instead. hope to make the next one.

ride hard.

Riding on sunday instead???? Surely that should read as well

😛

Saturday 27th, 10am Edale car park.

And Hora – I don't look like Charles friggin Dance!!!!

Well my Blue Pig is fixed now so I may tag along too if that's OK, hangover from Friday night allowing

hangover from friday night imperative.

🙂

jamesgarbett I can't remember a time that I HAVENT started a ride with a hangover. Hateful things.

or indeed finished one sober eh Hora?

A girl in our office bought me a bottle of Jägermeister. She'd never tried it before so we had a shot each….at 7.30am 😕

29 on the list….. bets are open

I say 22

19

Travel question- could any of you regulars please reccommend the best route that time of day driving from north Nottingham? thanks

wont be coming myself now….

If you set off early enough Den, up to Chesterfield, Bakewell, Calver, Grindleford, Hathersage, Hope, Edale.

Alternatively,

M1 to Sheff, A57 to Ladybower, then Bamford, Hope, Edale.

cheers, pook

I say 27

28 if we count Skiprat in his support van with your big red bulbus thing Pook.

I agree you look nothing like Charles Dance.

Hora
I`m one of the Camo jacket gang now !!!

Haha, sounding good, although I've not ridden a bike off road in 6 months so will be keeping the faffing/cake to riding time ratio firmly towards the cake end 😀

Annoyingly I'm now going to be a no-show. Just been doing a lower leg service on my forks and having them opened up they're borked. Looks like they'll be off to TF for some love but they're not going to be ready by the weekend.

One day I'll actually manage to make one of these rides.
