    Need an excuse to get out of bed?

    How about a nice XC ride in the Mendip/Cheddar area tomorrow morning? I was thinking 9:45am at Lillypool Cafe (BS25 1RQ). Witches Wood, Yoghurt, OAP, Kings Wood, Heart Bypass and down to Bishop Compton, cheeky back, Slot Cars then Winscombe Drove back to the cafe (sadly shut down).

    Anyone interested?

    I’d love to, but I’ve given the boss a commitment to a bike free day, on the basis that I was out till 12 today anyway.

    Best I can hope for tomorrow is a quick blast in Weston woods when the kids are in bed. 🙁

    I’d have been up for this but my legs are shot after & I’ve got to do family stuff.

    Shame about the cafe. Will be in the area but a little later. Going to try and find “OAP” and “Witches” maybe (see today’s previous thread!)

    Have fun

    Me too.

    Glutton for punishment, I took my new road-bike out for a quick spin this afternoon. Riding uphill into that wind was not a great idea. Still, there were interesting May-day celebrations in town to look at.

    Edd: Very nice to meet you today.

    Yeah, thanks everyone, a great ride. Dusty trails, good company and no rain.

    “track-stand”? I thought it was “troll”!

    Good to meet you too buzz.

    Elliptic and Edd may have to have a track-standing competition. Best of three; loser buys a round in The Swan 😀

    Sounds like a challenge 🙂

    Bit out of practice actually, found it was a bad idea on the road bike I’ve mainly been riding this year (toe overlap).

    Speaking of road bikes… you went for it then buzz?
