E mailed the man he's possibly available the 25th of October (iffy ) more likely from the end of November .So lets have some replies from interested parties so we can hopefully get a suitable date for all who want to play .
Looking at suggested routes and i think i would leave it in the capable hands of people such as Knottie and Sharki.
Just one thing though boys .Whilst it might be fun to give the mag fellas a beasting remember some of us aren't quite so sprightly as you two !!!!
Depending on numbers might be 2 groups again .
As it's my idea i get to go in the knitting group again !!!!
Aye go on then, not ridden the Quantocks sincce Jan. End of Nov is good for me.
A team meeting is in order again at some stage, the general theme is we go round knotties and stare at a map, Emily makes us teas, we eat chocolate hob nobs and evening cake.
just chips, no Poncherello?
I'm interested! Still haven't made a STW group ride...
Probably moving to Brizzle sometime around end of Nov, so just let me know when the ride is and I'll make it if I can.
Not seen Chipps for yeeeeeeeeears... in fact not since the 9feet.com Afan trail launch I don't think...
sharki what is this evening cake of which you speak ?

Instead of a ride?? Sounds good 🙂
End of November for me please mr young fart!
hey there Ab did you read my reply on the other thread questioning your memory recall ? 😆
OFx
Sounds like a good enough reason to venture back to the lovely Qs.
Count me in for now pending the date.
cheers,
Dez
For now both dates woudl work so yes I'm in. Let me know the details when confirmed
Thanks
I can't remember OF.
Seriously though, like I could get you mixed up with someone else! Now I know you are suffering from retirement induced mind-unravellment 😉
abx
Are you all over this one OF?
Keeping track of number, etc.
I take it the orange signs aren't needed this time.
Would you like me to do the neccesary notification to the AONB, all gatherings above 20 people are classed as an event and they like to know about the these things..December is classed as one of the wettest times of year so this would factor in any route plans (the rangers like to know the route to be used) also they like the 2nd and 3rd weeks in october to be event free, as the pony's get rounded up during such time...
Of course they don't need to know, however i try to keep a good relationship with the Rangers, forestry and AONB, as now again we're looked upon as speeding yobs (knottie and saladdogger), so by not upsetting the land managers we can continue to enjoy the relative freedom we have up there.
Never been to the Quantocks. I'd like to come please 😛
I'm up for this. See you in a few weeks in the Purbecks hopefully.
Mulletus, how's the cricket looking for Saturday after the rain this week? Will you be joining us for a cream tea?
No news of cancellation. Covers have been on the wicket all week keeping it dry so it's looking very unlikely that i'll be joining you. 😥
I might be up for this. Like the sound of Quantocks! Not been on one of these rides before. should be fun!
both dates are good for me - looking forward to another Q's ride 🙂
Low quality compressed taster.

OK Dibbs?
Sharki 'twood be an honour to have you as the liason occifer !!!
What about this ?It's my birthday on the 26th of November so the weekend before or after .How does sound ?
Ab you say the sweetest things ?Alas retirement will be ending in the next couple of weeks . :(One definite job offer another interview Monday .Only 12 or 13 hours a week though !!! and next summer in Canada is looking increasingly deffo as well !!!!
Birthday rides are great! You might even get your choice of cake made for you.
When would be a good time to ask who Chipps is?
Anna , Chipps = mag editor .....

Mag? What is this mag of which you speak? 🙂
End of November's best for me.
It's the Dartmoor Devil on the 25th Oct, so.....
Gives me time to re-build the Curtis. i've got the decals from gary, so now just have to decide from 1500 powdercoat colours!!
Either good for me. A second Q's ride this year would be good.
I will be living down in Devon by then so yeah, put me down as an interested. Bit too early to comit, and am more likely to make it to the November ride, assuming there is a slower group to join 🙂
christ was that as long ago as march ???
Anna so you took the bait !!!!Yay happy birthday cake for me !!!
I've decided to call the outing OFs birthday ride/Good day Mr Chipps !!!! 😀
Or 'a chipp off the even older block'.... 😉
I'm very quiet, and don't know anyone, but can i come as well please?
More than happy to bring cake.... 😀
Cheers, Pete
The whole point of these rides are to meet new people, we're all shy and quiet really.
It's like internet dating with mud and sweat...and cake....
DoctorRad, funny you should mention that launch, we were saying this morning that was the last time we rode with Chipps. Do you remember that physcadelic ? tent with the spaced out DJ 😯
Sharki shy and quiet ? I've heard it all now . 😆
By coincidence, that's also my birthday weekend. Cake for me too Anna?
I'd like to come havn't ridden the Q's before so would be fun in an out of breath sweating kinda way either date good but end of Nov better 🙂
Take DOB ID richpenny and I'm sure soon to be even older fart will share half. However if you're lying he'll be under strict instructions to not even give you one slice...
Mmmmm cake .
I hope to make it - count me in! 🙂
.

Anna those 3 words are wonderful .I LOVE YOU !!!! 😳
Sorry meant A BIRTHDAY CAKE !!!! 😯
