Ilkley on 3rd oct sounds good to me
thanks for that stuart really good day out g
gutted i missed it but knee has been playing up so decided it was time to try resting it rather than fighting the pain. Hope all had a good day. Ilkley sounds like an idea. Done lots of riding round there but always good to see other peoples routes
No problem! Had a really good day, cracking company as always on a STW group ride.
Hope the guys that took a fall aren't feeling too bad. I'll workup the stats on memory map in the morning and get them posted.
Thanks Johnny for the cake, it was a good base for the beer on the way home 😀
Cracking ride everyone! Thanks for letting the slow ol' gal join you. The bike maintenance team were fantastic. Thanks for the excellent sorting out of my recurring STW rides/dodgy pads thing. I'm a little tired now, going to lie down........ I'll train for the next ride!
was a cracking ride with some nice crashes
Pics please!
photographer rode down to jump for photos and crashed on jump.
Photgrapher caused rider behind to crash
Unfortunatey therfore Lowey has no pics 😆
Fixing avids on the trail is dead easy despite what they say in this forum and no probs.

I suppose it was Karma really. We were tempting fate at the lunch stop talking about not crashing etc.etc., then Nick's fall was probably my fault also, so unsurprisingly, I took the big hit on the jump.
I have to say then even after a bottle of red and shit loads of hardcore painkillers, my ****in shoulder is hurting and I am sporting the early stage bruises that would grace any medical textbook.
Stuart.. AWESOME DAYS RIDING. Thanks very much for showing us around, I have to say that of all the STW rides that one is right up there. It had everything... big views, big climbs, some utterly sublime singletrack descents... and lots of techy stuff to get your teeth into.
A really nice group as well. Great to see Jacqui making the trip down as well.
Cracking pictures dave, makes the sore legs all worth while!
Hope the shoulder is on the mend soon, you went down that hard I thought you'd broken something.
I did mate, my pride 😆
Its a good job we were in a group otherwise I'd have been crying my eyes out lol.
Bloody sore today, gonna take the youngest swimming instead of Gisburn, see if that will loosen it up.
lol @ Lowey
Stats for the day....
28 Miles (mileage was down from 30 as you guys wanted to take the shortest possible route off embsay crag 😀 )

Cracking ride Wharfedale thanks for organising, sorry to gib out but Mark's legs were toast, struggled up embsay moor but it was worth it 🙂
Would be interested in an MMO if you have it, email in profile.
Looks like a great ride, sorry I didn't make it in the end... next time!!
Cracking pics lowey as always.... I do like this one, maybe it should be used for a campaign warning again the dangers of accepting jelly babies from strangers on moors.

🙂
