Who fancies a spin on Wednesday evening? 6pm depart from the Bike Chain for Pentlands, or Peebles if we have enough motor vehicles.

Yep, count me in! At least, until I realise there's something else I'm supposed to be doing, or my bikes are broken...

Prefer [url=

I could be tempted. What would the route be and how long in the dark (batery power required!).

oh route... depends where we go first. If its Pentlands I won't be doing the route as I'm none-too familiar. If driving to Peebles to be decided by majority vote en route. I have room for me + 2.

I think you're more excited about this than I am! Or jealous? Of her.

I'd be glad of a lift to Peebles, I rarely make it down there for various feeble reasons so would be fun to see all this new stuff I've heard about.

If its Pentlands I know plenty of routes although people would need to be very clear about what they want to ride as my taste in trails doesn't seem to be everyone's cup of tea...

Think I'll be up for a last-gasp winter hours night ride, provided it's ecologically responsible of course. Unlikely to make it back in time from work if you're heading to the borders at 6 but could make the Pents...

Pents probably the more feasible & ecologically responsible option it seems.

OK, 6pm at TBC. 13th can 'advise' on route.

Highly pleased at not getting in till 9.45 last night, especially so seeing it's down to approx 20m visibility tonight. A night well-used.

I enjoyed the ride out - long evening for me - not home until 10.20 ish and left home at 5.45. Nice to be shown some new routes. Ta
