For those few, that happy few, that band of brothers (and one sister) that M'd (and W'd) TFU on Saturday, and weren't scared of a bit of water, it was much more fun than riding round in the rain should have been. There was cake, there was surprisingly little mud, there were mahoosive puddles and there was the nearest thing to skiing that I've done on a bike 🙂
So, let's do it all again. Venue TBC, but for now, and keeping in the tradition of pootling on the last weekend of the month, put [b]Sunday 27th January[/b] in your diary.
As always, we will be observing The Rules of Pootle as laid down by His Pookness (peace be upon him).
1) if you're fast, hold the gates and count the folks through
2) if you're slow - have something to talk about with the other 20 people with you
3) bring cakePootles aren't a typical 'group ride'. I started them 'cos I hated being the person at the back. I wanted a group ride for the people at the back. There aren't any people at the back in a pootle.
I is in! Can you order the tropical weather in for me this time please?
I did this time, and you didn't show 😉

Weekly bump.
Full details to follow in the New Year.
I should be able to make this one.
I'm gonna follow rocketdog's lead and be completely non committal, but am certainly registering my interest... If I come, will probably drag a few people with me.
Bloody hell! Pootles will start clashing soon!
I'm gonna follow rocketdog's lead
it's one of them extendable ones
Just checking Si... Is this still happening?
And if so, woukd you mind be bringing a few extra tag alongs?
Where approx is the venue and is this an all-dayer?
I failed to make it about four years ago. I'll try and make up for it by turning up this time. I shall be bringing my dirtworker and, if things don't improve on the flooding front, my therapist 😉
Yep, still happening. Yep, all welcome, more the merrier.
Will probably be starting from the centre of Northleach, at about half ten. Will provide proper details nearer the time.
It'll be very much about sort of in the region of around about three-ish hours riding give or take. Dependent on faffing, mechanicals, pace, shark attack, that sort of thing.
quick bump.
Full details to follow at the weekend.
*still monitoring*
