barnes, you left you camera in my van.
i am gonna swap it on here for some spare tubes..... 😆
and to every one who came.....NICE ONE.
nice to meet you all.
What time did you set off in the end?
I would have liked to have gone but didnt get up till later than I wanted to so had to go for a ride on my own. I did cycle through Grizedale on my way back home though.
Sound like a good'un lads.
I managed to get an early blast round llandegla in the end.
Early start as long as i was back for 12:00.
Bloody busy though.
Piccies soon Simon?

He rode that with consomethinge skill. A pleasure to watch safe at the rear.

can I just point out Dave is taking a sissy line ? Balls-out Barnes went right down the middle 🙂
Was Dave there, by any chance?

we had lots of Daves, in fact I suggested we ALL be called Dave for simplicity...

In my defence my forks had stopped working and the brakes were back to the bars - poor bike preparation I know but that one had'nt been used for a while.
Yosh - how are the legs?
Had a great time today fellas-really enjoyed it-possibly the most gruling ride I've ever done but it's left me hungry for more
Really enjoyed meeting you all too, hopefully do something else again soon:)
gruelling in effort required or number of flatties ?
Oh, and I apologise for not pointing out the easy way back along the NFT 🙂

I was just kiddin, you made it look very smooth 🙂
How are the legs?..........not working and sore!
Thanks for being so patient with me
Ah that's ok Simon, would have felt a bit of a failure not to complete it all
[i]Thanks for being so patient with me [/i]
Dont be daft mate... it wasn't a race, just a great social ride.
good job i didn't go or that would have been another Dave
i was the usual trail god.....
barnes was not
and yoshimi can spank it on the downs 😀
Ton's new found pleasure in all things vegetarian gave him wings - or should that be 'wind' 🙄

My legs are hurting this morning - I was pushing myself not to let down the Bog Trotter name :o)
Some great pics there DJ - did you really have to include the one of me pushing up, looking ready to drop 😳

Don't worry Danny, I have some of you riding downhill heroically 🙂 [and of Ton taking the sissy track]
did you really have to include the one of me pushing up, looking ready to drop
But you never stopped smiling
My legs are hurting this morning
Steve's leg is hurting as well - but only from your aptly named 'Suicide Drop'
but only from your aptly named 'Suicide Drop'
well, at least he can't claim he wasn't adequately warned 🙂
Cheers all enjoyed the reide was super fun and legs not that achey today but definetly a rest day.
Yoshimi you would be so much faster up hill if you did not need to carry your own weight in inner tubes!!!!
That was a cracking ride, quite a hard 20 miles but some great descents. Thanks to everyone for making it such a good day out and to Yoshi for the lift. Post ride tea and cake in the car park was a nice touch too!
Excellent Pics DeeJay.
Oh, and Frank/Fagus, I'm not sure what I did to upset you, I can only suppose it was some kind of misunderstanding, but I'm famous for inadvertently antagonising people and I do apologise - I'm happy enough to ride with people I actively dislike, never mind those I cannot remember. Had you attended the ride hopefully we could have sorted the matter out. You missed a good laugh 🙁

Great pics Simon - I think between us we pretty much got that ride recorded - except for the cakes and delicious scones and the end! 🙂
Didnt realise Steve had taken a tumble at that drop...
Hope your ok mate.
Cracking pictures Simon.
Nice pics deejay and simon, those rocks on thru the wall look a lot slippier in the pics than I remember.
I heard Steve had come off but didn't realise it was that much of a slam - ouch!
Great pics Simon, really put me in the mood to go straight back!
Donk, no worries about lift, anytime pal
except for the cakes and delicious scones and the end!
yes, I couldn't believe I hadn't taken any when I reviewed my shots!
I heard Steve had come off but didn't realise it was that much of a slam - ouch!
could someone let us know if he's OK ?

I take pleasure in picking [b]my own[/b] scabs - other peoples' are just gross 🙁 Oh, and TJ was correct, picking them encourages infection 🙁
