Ok the parking is sorted - Stuart at Dales Mountain Bike Centre has organised a field HERE. £1 per person and it is within easy reach of the centre to make use of the cafe. For those of you needing a post code DL11 6AW should get you there.
I have come back from tonights ride with a light layer of dust on my bike - lets hope the weather holds 
So guys and hopefully dolls - who's in who's out??
Need to double check, but if I can, then I can offer a lift from Manchester..( well, Accrington....)
yes we are in me and a mate .
also plenty of space for a couple or 3 more from Keighley/skipton area.
is that £per car or person not that it matters really
£1 per person
Rather gives it away methinks 
Yeah, I'm still up for this. Can't really offer any lift, only got a tiny car 
Fingers crossed for more sunshine.
Myself and Weester will be there. Just one thing Dave... what time ? 9.30 ?
Count me in 
Yep me +1 (maybe - his shock is being repaired)
About the route, is it rocky techy stuff like the lakes route or more swoopy fast stuff like rivi?
Oh and directions, from the M6 am I better of taking the direct A684/B6270 or the longer maybe quicker A684/a6108? Route maps say the former but they have been known to send you down stupid slow singletrack roads.
Sorry, but I'm not going to be going on Sunday, after all. I've felt really rough since Tuesday night and haven't eaten anything, plus I think I'm going to have a bunch of marking to get through this weekend.
Maybe next time?
Donk, Take the M6 to jnct 37, then follow A684 though Sedbergh and Garsdale. Just before Hawes, go over Butter Tubs to Thwaite and then follow the B6270 down the valley.
I is in
I'll have room for a body and bike if anyone needs a lift - proposed route is M62 - M1/A1 interchange - A1..
See you all about 9.30..... looking forward to making a puffing, sweating, swearing eejit of meeself...... oh, and looking forward to putting a few faces to names
And finally - BBC weather says Sunny spells, no rain. I'll take that........
Cheers & thanks for organising!
Chris
Cheers lowey, altho I've just realised if my mates coming I'll probably have to pick him up from rochdale so may end up taking the A1 route.
Ah but the A1 has no soul.... Garsdale route is just a superb drive also.
See you there mate.
Also in
Im in,
Traveling from bradford, can offer a lift but only have small car so will mean taking off wheels etc. Or if anyone can offer me a lift that would be even better!
Donk
I would put the riding somewhere between the Lakes and Rivi.
Mainly fast and swoopy but with rocks thrown in in parts.
The ups are bigger than Rivi but not as big as the Lakes-generally speaking
Me and Deejay will be on FS bikes but a hardtail would also work well if you fancied it.
Cheers
Steve
Thanks Steve, and yes thats kind of why I was asking
Me and Deejay will be on FS bikes but a hardtail would also work well if you fancied it.
It's all fine on a rigid bike too, if you're used to it and don't mind going a bit slower. With a choice of bike, I'd say a FS that climbs well would be ideal, otherwise go for the hardtail.
im in hopefully need to put bike back together though sub5? or 5? if not mi bro's hardrock
i shall be gracing you all with my prescence.......
