  • WTD: Holmfirth night riders!

    Don’t move me into the classifieds! This is a request for more riders to ride on a Thursday night in Holmfirth, then go for a pie and a pint, we meet every week, everyone is welcome!

    Sounds good. I couldn’t make it every week like, on account of family commitments and stuff, but I could definitely pop over every now and then. I was out on the mini-STW Marsden/Meltham group ride last year (September-ish), I was the one on the Canyon. Drop me an email with some more details: my username at gmail dot com. Cheers! 🙂

    Still got no lights but give it a month and I’d like to. Heard there’s some good sfuff over that way.

    where and at what time? Whose pies and what pub?

    We usually meet at 6:30 in the big coop car park, I know it is a bit early, but allows time for beer, we usually go the box office bar, round that back of the Picturedrome, they have free pork pies with every pint and they are VERY good ones, locally made.

    Failing that we can be found in Herveys, but there are no pies there, only pork scratchings. (washes mouth out!)

    Sometimes we meet in Meltham at one of the riders houses, he then provides the beers!

    Never mind night rides – how about a day rise? Every time I drive through I wonder if there’s good riding round there.

    Depending on whose pies they are, I could be tempted. (Just need to get my lights sorted). Would also be interested in a day ride, one saturday maybe?

    under no circumstances would I go to a pub in Meltham.

    MT, that’s why we go to one of the riders houses, Meltham pubs are not nice.

    Liking the idea of a day ride, there could be quite a crowd. Saturday will suit me best, but will have to be after April now, just come back from Skiing, then off camping soon and then off to Paris, suprised I have not been kicked out yet, so I need to hedge my bets.

    I’ve been in a number of Meltham pubs. Some of them used to be bordering on tolerable, on week-nights. I’d not want to go in all muddy in full MTB-dork kit, though, that would definitely be pushing it.

    A Saturday ride would be grand, and I’ll definitely show up for a Thursday or two as soon as I can get an evening pass.

    Cool beans everyone, we turn up in Holmfirth pubs covered in crap and get no problems at all, think they are used to us.

    If anyone wants to contact me, get me on r a dresser at gmail dot com.

    See you Thursday.

    I will sort a date out in the future for a Saturday ride and post it on the forum.

    Be interested. Especially if you head denby dale way at all (at Ingbirchworth)

    We can head any which we people want really, sometimes we start at New Mill, so that tends to be a ride towards the dale.
