Attention Susans! The rain has stopped so let's play out on our bikes again.
Belmont Bull - BL7 8AJ
8:15 blast off
Bring money for beer and crisps.
The Manager has just changed at the Bull. Alan finishes today. New couple taking over are supposed to be refurbing it but not sure when its starting so it "may" be closed. Black Dog down the road will still be open.
In.
I'm in.
Assuming my weekend of bike building is successful, I'm in.
In.....

why not! i'll hopefully just ride over.
Binners, they sell those in the Eclectic Deli in Rammy. She ordered me a full box.
I'll be there. Hopefully stay on my bike at the bottom of San Marino this time.
If it stays dry I'm in.
call me Susan.
If I had a pound for every time you said you'd turn up Greg I would have some pounds.
I've made like....at least 2 rides this year
I blame ...well me.
Why when its on my door step im other wise engaged. I'm in fort bill n back on Monday so.....
Bugger it im in
Favourite ride last year! I'm in!
OH it the one a year that I turn up for.....and the pub is not open either.... I like traditions
Will also ride over.
which way junky? is my best option to go up sheephouse lane from mine, basically?
Depends on whether you want flat or short
That is probably the quickest though Georges lane to Belmont road would also work from horwich [ I assume the other way up B6226 to Bolton then right at pub- signed Belmont- is the quickest but it is ALL road] but I was planning on going up to the mast and Down San Marino as its the most fun way there.
Will mail you
Currently trying to sort babysitter.

yeah, good plan!
Ok I have been over to 'research' the pub open / closed issue and can happily report that it will be open!
Alan the current Landlord leaves soon - Tuesday night is his last night and it will then be closed for 3 weeks...
If the pubs open I'll be there
Won't make it tonight chaps. I went for the weekend in Hebden Bridge, and seemed to have forgotten to go home again. Have a good 'un! 😀
Hebden is indeed like Brigadoon, but with more comfortable shoes.
See you in 100 years.
We are in if Daz remembers to pick us up 🙂

Going to be a quick turnaround after I get home. Could you get to Tod Station for 7pm to save a bit of time? Going to my house would be even better but you might not want to ride up the hill 😉
There are big grey things in the sky. Looks like Isle of Man spotting could be off the agenda 🙁
Indeed. It's suddenly very very dark around here...
I'm sure it'll blow over though.
It'll be reet.
(Packs change of clothes)
Sorry folks. That may be my fault. As I wasn't riding I arranged a barby this evening instead.
I didn't think. Sorry!
I am confident that it will be drier than last week... 😀
Kiss of death, you lot! Peeing down now!
I hear there's bonkers traffic on the M62, for anyone going that way... Just sayin'
Be aware of severe traffic disruptions and diversions in place for Junction 21 near Milnrow - both directions M62
It is gentle drizzle ...goes to get waterproofs
Riding over so see you all there.
Just been on the M62. It is a mess. Pick another route if you can.
I came home (Bradford to Rammy) via Todmorden. Few sets of temporary lights but not too bad.
Sadly, I was blissfully unaware of this.

Is that photo near Simister? If so, dump the car, climb over the barrier and I'll lend you a bike.
If that photo is at Simister Island then I better set off now if the traffic is backed up much further 😈
I'll have a look. I can see it from upstairs.
...in winter. It is not winter.
Could you just shin up the offending tree and report back HtS? 🙂
Have you people not heard of google maps traffic overlay?
I mean I know the North is backward but really.
It starts at bang on 18. I've not moved far.

The lorry has just been carted past me in opposite direction. Didn't look pretty 🙁
You are about 150m from my house.
I'd wave but, as we have established, the trees are in leaf.
The wreck is at J22. I'd get off at J19 and go cross country.
Coffee, half a sugar please 🙂
