[Closed] Northern chapter rivvy ride 28th march roll call

Me

Me and 3 others. But retiring at belmont for an afternoon on the piss 🙂

Me + Craig...still working on others from Darlo 😕

I am

All being well i'll be joining you all if thats OK???

Maybe one more with me as well..

How long do you reckon the route will take??

don't think so as i'll be rougher than tarzans feet sunday!!! 😆

im tempted, would i keep up on singlespeed? lowey is John coming?

Last I heard he was mate. The pace is very relaxed, you'll be fine.

JxL unless you've been slobbed out on the couch chugging down pie and chips since last summer I'm sure you'll be fine. May have to push 1 or 2 climbs if you're out of practice but I'm sure you'll have company.

I'm in, has lowey booked the weather?

What time are you planing to at rigington? and what is the planed route roughly?

Also are you thinking of taking in the Healey Nab Trail?

I think i may meet you one the trail somewhere...

unless you've been slobbed out on the couch chugging down pie and chips since last summer

Thats me bolloxed then.

Me and my other half will venture out with you guys.

Possibly. As I live in Belmont, it would be rude not to...

Oh, and is there anyone going through Belmont to give a lift? Seems a bit silly me either driving over there only to ride past my house back to the car later, or doing half the ride first over Great Hill and down to White Coppice

we'll be riding from astley Bridge in the morning, and then stopping at the Belmont Bull having a few in the afternoon.

You doing your ride with this lot Wors, or doing your own thing?

With this lot, i'll be with Lowey off here heading over in the morning.

i think i'm going to be along with two more 😆

having a few in the afternoon.

Zokes... we are setting off from Sharples around 8ish, up winter hill, down the shoulder, Belmont road, Ice Cream Run, anglezarke, healy nab and onto Botany Bay to meet everyone. We are then riding back with them as far as Belmont, but we are then stopping in the Bull all afternoon on the piss.

Rightho. What's your eta at the foot of the shoulder on Belmont Rd? My plan for getting there was going to be winch up sheephouse, over spitler's edge, down to white coppice, but happy to follow you guys...

Spitlers would be a bof fest at the moment mate. I reckon we will be [url= http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=365012&y=415212&z=115&sv=365012,415212&st=4&ar=y&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf&dn=773&ax=365012&ay=415212&lm=0 ]Here[/url] at about 9.15 ish. We may, depending on the weather, cut down Lead mines rather than the ICR, but will play it by ear.

Email me your mobile and I can always txt you on the way over.

Sounds good to me. Can you email me your contact details then I can let you know if I'm coming? I've not sanctioned this with the home office yet....

but you are young and it will make the fat overweight biffers feeld superior when you struggle

good old Jonny, glad to see you are adopting the politically correct stance again 😆

will be arriving by boat

still think you avin me on with this boat thing.

does it have ladies in bikinis draped over the bow like the piccie in the last post?

The pub has been informed of our arrival and has thankfully advised that they have plenty of Bank Top on tap.

Jobs a Good 'un.

Excelenté!

plenty of Bank Top on tap

Climbing back over Belmont Road and down the ICR Pi$$ed, that should be good. 😆

I live in Belmont 😆

I live in Belmont

🙂

Cool so you get to do the ICR pissed up then you can go up AICR, hole int wall and get to do san marino again on your way home. Lucky fella

Or I could just stagger the 50 yards it is from Alan's fine establishment back to my house 💡

Lowey your going to be cutting it fine, or have you been time trial training? 😆

Piss it mate. 2 hrs to botany bay ? No worries.

he's got a good lead man! 8)

Lowey not sure which way I'm riding over yet but I'm sure at some point our paths will cross around rivi/WH, will you have your moby with you? I might give you a shout.

Yes mate. Thought you were driving over ?

Anyway, we are setting off from Sharples at 7.45. Up coal pit to Winter hill, then straight off the shoulder, meeting Zokes for 9-9.15, down the Ice cream run, then road over to Botany Bay, with the exception of the Singletrack around Anglezarke reservoir.

Right so 9.30 at Bottany Bay then? Weather is looking good!

Haven't ridden since september 2009, gonna be tough 🙂

P.S John is your phone working?? 🙂

mart

Cant make it now chaps but get some photos posted of the carnage. 😛

Thanks for organising this and ordering decent weather! Glad we bailed out when we did, don't think I could have managed 28 miles! Nice to put some faces to names.
(In case you still don't know, I was the only female there!)

Cheers for waiting for me guys. 😳 Was a brill ride, only 7 of us at the end.
