Bloody hell!
Might well tag along
@bikebuoy - about half an hour's drive away on a clear road, could be a bit longer depending upon where Pookles chooses to meet.
Might bring the SS to this if there are going to be a few others
B&b booked in Ashbourne ( a place I know very well and wanted to revisit for some time) 😀
Pootle'idge 8)
Morton - can I blag a lift?
Permission granted! Now bouncy slow fast down, rigid gears or rigid single speed? never taken the single speed to the peak, will have to find a front brake though.
We'll for the route I expect we'll be doing, some bits will suit a bouncy bike, other bits will suit a rigid....
Funny wheel sizes on the other hand.....
Do i have to go? 😉
Yes. And you have to bring cake and buy me a pint.
Hopefully will be there... !
Happy to do assistant to the assistant guide and gates!!
Sounds like a blast,should be able to make a sweaty,wheezing back marker. 😐
Ss attention whoring tazmanian devil up for it...and maybe a bike a ride
Hopefully be up for this
I'll set the 3 year old daughter to work with cake mix, forum will be very quiet on 2nd Dec 😈
MartynS - ditch the tubeless 😉
Rocks dont like tubeless. Thorns do..
45 mins from mine so should be able to make it.
The other half is otherwise engaged otherwise she'd have come with me for this.
Looks like I can make this one too
Crikey, some old faces coming back to the pootles!
looks like I'll either be on the rigid 29er SS or the tandem - we'll see how Mrs NBT's arm is looking before making a decision
Jane could always meet us in the pub regardless Jules
This is on the day before I go back to work 9 weeks after surgery, and 2 years of getting fatter, crapper and weaker. I may come along just as a contender for the slowest rider. 🙂
If a pootle is similar to a bimble ( the midlands equivalent) I'm in!.......very sedately
are the pootles that for from the midlands?
For anyone worried about holding up the rear don't worry, I guarantee I'm slower and less fitter, plus I only have a big bouncy bike which slows me down even more.
that beast is a HELL of a track.
If anyone is coming over from Manchester/Stockport way and wants to car share drop me a mail (address in profile).
Pop will you bring a muzzle and lead to make sure I play well with normal folk and don't bite? 🙂
Kevin, Abigale and me will be up for it. Katie wont be able to make it.
I'm going to do my best to be there. Will the route be tandem friendly?Jane could always meet us in the pub regardless Jules
Taz I found castration is a good way of calming over exuberance in young pups - much better than a muzzle!
I'm trying to keep it weather proof Jane so there might be some rocks
Finally, I can actually make a Pootle event YEEEHAAAA.
I plan to bake large quantities of mini-Victoria sponges (cup genre), iced; finished with either a Jelly-Tot, Smartie or other - open to suggestions/mini-poll?
They'll be carried throughout the day, in case of emergency 🙄 😆
Is this the meet-up that's kind of a singles ride?
Can I come, even if I never eat cake or any other form of confectionery?
Al - no.
Old boy - yes
I'll be there.
Thanks, Pook, I can bring extra bananas in case there are others of my dietary persuasion 🙂
I would've come too, but we've organised a club ride round the Hayfield area that day.
Pff vp - swap the day!
Yeah no problem with the lift Pook.
Best clean the van out!!
Will come on the next one! Too late to swap our day unfortunately. I love Hope, still learning to ride the Beast though, so I'd definitely be at the back on that 🙂
tazzymtb - MemberPop will you bring a muzzle and lead to make sure I play well with normal folk and don't bite?
There are normal folk on here ?! 😀
It's all relative AW !
