I'm thinking of coming but unsure what gearing and tyres I should use?

38 x 10 SM8'S 😉

3.8 inch slicks will ge fine and a 38:11 should suffice.

Swede , you owe me a keyboard just spat wine every where 😆
stu i can recommend specialized the captain tyres ,they luve the mud 😯

Wine? You poof! You ride ss now you should drink beer and whisky

Got a 3.8 on the front already.
Need to drop down from 42 to 38 then.

Need to drop down from 42 to 38 then.

Lol, reminds me of that time in Peru!

Errrrrrrrrrrr

No?

😆

Is that like plum juice!

Swede do be quiet.

I would love to try your 'plum' juice :-)))

Alright shipmate?

Ahoy there

I would love to try your 'plum' juice :-)))

i`ll fill my hip flask just for you

 

Does said plum juice taste betterer cold or warm?

warm with a mature veiny cheese

May head over and join you, it's normally drier and warmer in the eastern lowlands

bit short notice for a beard, will stubble suffice?

I've been shushed! Makes cold water down the back noise. 😯

Indeed you have!

Timber you're more than welcome!

Just a reminder wheels roll at 10:30sharp so don't be late!

Anyone know of anywhere close for brekkie pre ride?

for god's sake don't stop any local's to ask, you'll end up burning in a wickerman, once the freaks have worked out how to use a zippo with webbed hands 😯

The pedalabikeaway cafe does good bacon rolls/baps/breadcakes/whatever you want to call it.

As for this ride, I'm probably out - still going to be at fod on a ss, but to be honest I'd prefer to spend my day downhilling than xc'ing 😯

How odd??

i may come, but the chances of me getting up early enough to be there for 10.30 after the gig on Saturday night in Rugby are slim TBH

Don't worry Taz, we've got some good stuff to ride and tbh there's better stuff hidden in the depths of the FOD than the commoners DH runs, mwarrrrhahahahahaha

Hopefully things look like they might be getting a wee bit more sorted so I may well be mincing along, taking [s]it[/s] up the rear. 😀

Bummer 😉

Just had an email from Cheesybeanz he's sat in casualty whinging about his chain snapping and taking the skin off his leg. 🙁 Looks like he will be gheying out now, Bad Times

thats my weekend over , needed 6 stitches to pull the main flap of skin
back and a load of steri strips on the rest . BUGGER .

Any idea of numbers likely to attend - want to make sure I pick up enough brownies.....

Your guess is as good as mine now Ed!!! And there are 3 that I know about that aren't on the thread

his chain snapping and taking the skin off his leg

Whilst I feel for any cyclist injured, I cannot let the irony of this pass without comment. A SS cyclist missing a SS ride because his unbreakable SS had a mechanical and failed, injuring the rider in the process.

Ouch.

Ah no ,not my SS , i took my geared bike out for the first time in weeks , stood up on a climb and snaped the chain , landed on the big ring . 😳

 

Ah - that'll be those powerful legs you only get from SS-ing then? Or the sort of maintenance skills you get from riding something that doesn't need maintaining?

salt and vinegar with that chip?

🙄

Stu, you're safe, i'm heading to Yorkshire

Warning. Hannibal Lecter is bringing the brownies. 😯

chuckles @ RD, I think TooTall has been overtaken one too many times by a SS and now has a chip the size of Aires Rock with the chosen ones! 🙂

Can't see that picture??

Count me in then tollah. 😆

Only trouble is I've only got a geared bike.

Will it be ok for me to turn up with that?

as long as it's got a normal sized front wheel, i recon it'll be reet, stu....oh, wait...

Stu you can come as long as the front wheel is 26" and the rear a 29" and has somewhere to hang your flannel on 🙂

So what do I have to do to get barred from the ride then?

you've known the tollah long enough now to know that turning up and trying to take some of the attention away from him will result in an instant dismissal 😀

I'm sorry Sofaking but who asked for your opinion?
I'm not having any attention this weekend for 2 reasons
1. Some bloke is going to let me have a pair of AC wheels if I don't
2. I'm saving myself for the wobble next weekend!
