Hope your'e ok Dave.
Dunno, don't have no riding buddies any more. Something to do with badgers. ๐ณ

Blimey, hope you get well soon David.
For me it was a road ride yesterday between Ramsbottom and Bolton.
Today I headed up and over Winter Hill for an absolutely fantastic ride down San Marino following a fairly quick chap on a blue GT full suss, followed by a delicious pint of Black.

(Now *that's* a pint!)
Tomorrow I'll be doing a fairly short local road ride as I have lots to do and Sunday I'll hopefully be going out for a properly long road ride, maybe round Macclesfield, maybe up into the West Pennines.
Puts my dislocated collarbone into perspective. Get well soon!
All the best candodavid, as i often say " you never know what's round the corner "
Epping forest for me, but never ridden there before so looking to join anyone riding there tomorrow for some local knowledge.
Hope you recover soon candodavid. Riding up Jacobs ladder tomorrow to do an extended loop round hayfield, that's if I don't get heatstroke!
Took delivery of new Focus Cayo today, so will be out on that tomorrow - a couple of laps round the Island should scratch the itch for the weekend
I'm off for light play in Rowberrow Woods tomorrow on my own. Will be parking at Burrington Combe. Hoping to practice a few little jumps. Gmail me if you fancy it [see profile].
Sunday is the BHF Somerset Levels ride which I'm trundling around with some pals, stopping at every cake opportunity.
GT Black Sat evening with a couple of mates, first big ride on my new Cube LTD Race, looks like it is going to be a cracker. Then home for a few beers.
popped up Grizdale Pike tonight in the lakes was a cracking sunset and a nice night for a cheeky decent ๐
Off to brave the crowds @ Cannock for a first try of the new trail, kinda fancy the wrye forest, but being made redundant before the end of the month, so will have lots of free time for it soon.
Probably just a few short-ish local rides. Might go to Cannock on Monday to give the new stuff another go.
Got a loop planned round Quantocks which I am BUZZING for!! Just hope I can find the entrance for one of the descents I've been recommended to do. ๐ฏ
I'll be trying to keep up with Sharki on a Princetown/Burrator loop ๐ wish me luck
Man is he still as fit as a butchers dog even on my HT ๐
Which one Bushwacked?
To the descent that leads to the chimney - done it once before.
[url= http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=316552&Y=136625&A=Y&Z=120 ]Starts here, just after the Bridleway on the right.[/url]
If you want to do it by starting with Jambos/Sharki's singletrack then just take the gravel track on the left before the gate leading into Great wood. As the track starts to veer to the left, you should see the singletrack going straight on into the trees.
100 odd miles road ride when I've printed off the route and DIY on Sunday ๐ฅ
Either out of macc over to Buxton and round the goyt. Or over to romiley/marple
Dunsop Bridge today for me
3 hours on a bike in the gym following a collision at the Chill Factore Wednesday lunchtime ๐
Still nowt compared to any heart attack though! Best wishes!!!
P.S. If you are the plonker reading this that barrelled into me from behind, ######## ####### you ###### etc! You get the drift...
...screwed the MTBng planned for my hols next week.
Get well soon David!
I was racing last night, and I'm working tomorrow, so I might well go for a lap of the local reservoir (about 8 miles ๐ ), if I ride too fast / far my legs might drop off! ๐
Paris-Roubaix. ๐
Did my favourite local loop in the Pentlands early this morning in perfect conditions. Not sure where I'm going tomorrow yet.
Nickegg - you got mail
A couple of hours trundling on a former railway line, after hitting a log on the trail with my usual panache and flair earlier in the week. Resulted in concussion and bruised ribs ๐
Get well soon David!
Had a cracking local spin last night with GeeTee1972 who's up this way for the weekend, I left him for dead on the uphills but he destroyed me on the downhills - just about even then! Jobs today, tomorrow I'm taking my nephew out riding (or climbing indoors if the weather is bad)
Swinley!
(as soon as I get out of the office - which will probably be sooner if I don't put things on forums)
