Harry the Spider and binners have both been shafted* by their babysitters and can no longer make this ride. Can anybody else lead this one out this Saturday morning?

Fanks.

*not in [i]that[/i] way

Of course we could always postpone until another mutually agreeable date.

If we do the following week, then the floods might have subsided. Its going to be bloody boggy up there this week. Its put [b]A LOT[/b] of water down. And there's no sign of it stopping. Its absolutely chucking it down again!!

I'll be riding a version of the route on Saturday regardless, the time of day is the issue for me.

The route is in the main weatherproof, I wouldn't do the woods in the rain nor pilgrims cross but there are plenty of options

route should be fine (apart from pilgrims cross moorland & woodland) the rest is hard ground (and cobbles up along the turbines)

Right, as I've let you all down (well, my mum has to tell the truth by buggering off to Ibiza) this needs a bit of direction otherwise it will end up in chaos.

What time are you meeting?
How far are you going?
Who is leading?

THIS RIDE IS POSTPONED

[b]UNTIL 10:30, WHEELS ROLLING AT 10:45[/b]

I have spent 50,000,000 brownies points to get out with an "open" pass

weather will not stop the ride

leaders pace will be slow and wheezing uphill and mincing downhill, route will be based on that discussed in main thread with adaptations for the weather (ie no hike-a-bike or soaking wet roots)

happy to follow someone else with better idea's ๐Ÿ˜‰
