Getting bored of my local trail and my usual Rivi partner hasn't ridden in months and isn't showing any signs of doing so.

Anything planned that I would be welcome to join?

Ta.

Agh! Thanks for the invites guys. Sorry should have specified weekends only as I work until 6.

HtS will be along soon with a Rammy / Scout Moor suggestion for Sat 10th of September.

May be able to do an evening ride next week though. Are we talking about breaking out the big lights for this or will we be done for dusk?

My usual Thursday evening mob have deserted me this week so I'd be up for a Rivi ride this Thursday.
I'm local-ish so could manage 18:30 earliest.

lipseal, it'll just be me Billy-no-mates as they've all cleared off on hols this week.

Not a racing whippet at all.

I've got a couple of things to sort out tonight that might potentially stop me riding on Thursday but I'll post up on this thread tomorrow morning to let you know either way.

I'll be out on Thursday night, starting from the parking area between the Lower and Upper barns.
Probably set off at about 6:30 pm.
Lights probably a good idea but not essential.

Anyone else out ?

lipseal, I'll be driving a 54 plate Mondeo estate and riding either a white Commencal Meta 5 or a blue Spesh hardtail.

Anyone else care to join us? - just post up so we don't go without you.

sefton, yep I ride most Wednesday evenings with Boggies. We usually have a "Southern" Wednesday nightride. South in this context being anywhere between Calderdale and Silverdale. Have we met under real names?

I'm always keen to get out on local rides.

This Thursday (for a complete change) I'm actually meeting a couple of guys over at Lee Quarry, and at the weekend I'll be in the Lakes.

I've been on a few rides with KKF and he's not [i]that[/i] fast! ๐Ÿ˜ฏ
