I'll be there too. Flats, 'suitable shoes', pads and full face in the car ready to roll... Anyone going up tonight? Couple of beers tonight if so?

I'm going to be there ๐Ÿ˜‰

Neither Nigel nor me are staying at the pub, so as to avoid getting leathered and being good for nothing on Sunday! Looking forward to an end of the day pint though and to seeing you all for a good weekend of progression.

Mrs splatz is rubbered up with new swampthingy's and ready to rock and roll......!!

We're staying over on Saturday night and our mate Alan is coming too.

I'm still nursing a broken leg and will be off to Malham for a more relaxed xc outing down Mastiles Lane.

And don't eat it all without saving some for me.....physio says I need all the leg strengthening flapjack I can get.

Here a video of Nigel riding up the roll in at Gisburn. Great to see you all at the weekend, I'll edit up more of the video asap and I'll post a link to the photos that I took as well. Expect to see more collaborations between Nigel and me in the future.

Where abouts is the Roll In Ed ?

It's on the track that comes from the Dog & Partridge, passing the quarry and start of the Red route top loop on the right, past the downhill track with drop offs on the left. Just after that you'll see the roll in on your right.

If you don't get it, just ask Tim at the pub to give you directions.

An excellent weekend, very clear and useful instruction and Nigel's riding was inspirational. Had me doing things I wouldn't have done otherwise, and you can't ask for much more than that.
