So is there a ride up at Thrunton 7ish tomorrow night? Might be up for that
It's not a definate I don't think.
I'm still ok for tonight?
Wow, now there's a response. Am hoping to be up in time to ride tonight but if not deffinitely tomorrow. Would love a guide and by the looks of it Chopwell and Thrunton seen to be the best options.
You can text me on 07775 642731.

I'll keep an eye on this thread whilst out and about today. If it's on and I can get then up for it, nights tomorrow night though.
Carbon337, P20, Dr Death, Darc\others meet at Thrunton main car park at 7:15?
Me too
Sorry!
I was in up the night looking after sick kids, so go easy on me.
Ok, am hoping to get up for 7.15, although my meeting has now been put back 2 hours! Grr.
Is there a postcode/road name to head for?
Alternatively, if I can't make it on time tonight I'm deffo in for tomorrow anytime from about 4 onwards.
Dave
Right will try to make it as if the evening is half as nice as it is this am it'll be spot on.
Stumpi I’m flexible on time, do you want to push it back?
Where you staying?

Ok, update for me is that theres no way for me to get there at a reasonable time. If I leave Milton Keynes at 4.30 I won't get to Thrunton until after 9, Bugger! I hate people that move meetings.
Toons, I'm on for tomorrow night if anyone can ride and I'd love to ride Thrunton.
Sorry messing y'all about, bloody customers! If you're riding tonight, have a goodun.
Wednesday is tricky for me, as the misses doesn't get home until 19:30, so won't make it until 20:15, is that too late?
BTW I'm still riding tonight as well.
I'll do my best for tonight but doubt it. 20.15 may be a bit late tomorrow as I'll be done by 4.
Will update as I get on, thanks for being so accomodating.
Bugger can't help you tomorrow night either.
i can only do tonight and even then my legs are shafted after overdoing it at the gym last night.
Tonight sounds good. I'm in
BTW jack, Si has made you out to be a Thrunton God 😉
Lol. What's he after?
Is he up for tonight?
Unfortunately not, he's got an early start tomorrow, off Wales.
Not looking likely for me now, kids want some fish and chips from the Harbour chippy after swinning and want to eat them at Warkworth.
do you go to the granary pool - thats the gym i go to
Yup we do nice little pool and the lessons are better.
There just about every Tuesday with my eldest but have both tonight so they want they're tea out and about.
LOL - I've got all that to come to...
Yeah it does slow things down a little sometimes but I still get out and starting to get out more again. It's just how can I say "No your not" when it's such a lovely night and I'm working the next 2.
Have a ride planned for Saturday so looking forward to that and plan on doing a biggish one.
Hi Guys I'm a dedicated trail builder at Thrunton one of a group of around 30 or so regulars maintaining the trails.
We only ride there on the assurance we keep it low profile and the FC work with us to this end.
Thrunton is privately owned and we have to tread careful to keep everyone on side by all means enjoy the trails but please keep it away from the social network to much attention wont be good for the trails we are trying hard to keep pace with the amount of visitors so if you could keep it to word of mouth we would appreciate it very much
Maybe meet one weekend and show you the real beauty of Thrunton Woods
To be fair Ian no on has mentioned anything about Thrunton other than you can ride there only you have mentioned the trails, people have been riding there for years way before trails were built as you know. It's a well known place and has even been used for races in the past, these were even televised. What I have noticed though it has become very very popular since the trails were built so slightly a victim of their success. Annoyingly were the illegal uplifts I've witnessed which now seem under control.
Whilst I'm very supportive of keeping these trails to a minimum Thrunton is not an unheard of place. Mind it was nice when there use to only a handful of us that rode there regular.
So, how was it tonight, beautiful evening.
Anyone out, anywhere tomorrow?
Was very nice only two riding in the end but shhh don't talk about it it's secret! 😉
Was a cracking ride.
Sorry Stumpi can't make tomorrow.

Perfect night you had, didn't get away from Amble until 7 as kids wanted to play with our friends kids who came to the pool to meet their mother. Ah well!
Thrunton
There'll be a reserved for the regulars sign popping up next.
sshh keep it quiet.
So tonight, anyone, I'm desperate and have time to spend.
I can of course find my own way from the carpark, but it'd be great to have some company.
Let me know, will be free from about 4-5
Oh, and tea/beer/whatever on mee if there is a guide about.... 😀
Dave
Wish I could but working tonight, so you really don't want me turning up. 😆
Toons,
Am heading up to your suggested location. Printed the map.
Drop me a text if you want to hook up and can get out
07775 642731
I'm off.
Dave
Had a great ride, know why you want to keep that little gem quiet. Rode up and round the crag, great decent although I now need a new mech hanger lol. explored a few of your little groomed runs too, very nice indeed and well put together.
Roll on next time.
Cracking place isn't glad you enjoyed it. Yeah the descent from the crag has no sympathy.
I love it up there; Thrunton does cause quite a few mechanicals\injuries!
Give me a shout next time you’re up.
Hi guys, am over your way again this evening and intend to have another craig loop ride.
Not sure how strong Ill be as I beat myself up round Innerliethen last night for a couple of hours but would love some company if you're free.
Leaving Glasgow around 4 ish so reckon I'll be the between 6.30 and 7.
Hope to see you if you can make it.
Dave
I'd be interested next week if anyone else is, I'll be up Tuesday night. I was very bored this week and the weather looked fantastic. I ended up watching two films (Truman show and then Primer - not a film to be watched when you're tired) and going to bed early. Rock and roll.
Will try and get tonight, next week should be fine too was going to be in touch about then anyway samuri. Stumpi if I make it I'll be in a red golf or maybe black a3.
Black Avensis. Eta 7
Sorry Stumpi can't make tonight, our lass is going out 🙁
Samuri, I can do next Tuesday around 19:15?
Samuri, I can do next Tuesday around 19:15?
