Yes to the lift please fella.

I know my way around Rivi to do the Pike then the masts if you need leading from the rear again (so to speak)

It was bloody marvellous up there last night, more dust that mud (maybe).

If I wasn't using up all my riding credits this weekend I'd have liked to join you.

Perhaps another time.

I was up there last night as well... hard trails arent bad but the moors up around 'Two Lads' were pretty wet. Plenty of rain forecast as well. Most of the stuff on the smithill's side should be fine.

Has anyone been up there recently. Is it a swamp?

Forecast for today/this evening is good.

If its anything like the moors by us, then its dried out unbelievably quickly. Theres still the odd wheel-swallowing bog of course, but compared to recently…

Not been up there for a week or so but it was OK then.
There's plenty of never-get-too-boggy bits around there anyway.

i'm remaining optimistic about my chances of getting up there tonight.
despite the fact it's highly unlikely...

I'm recovering from a chest infection, now that binners is on the E-cig is the pace likely to ruin me?

One thing packing in smoking definitely doesn't do is reduce your pie consumption

I reckon you're safe! 😀
