At the end of the Settle ride lots of people were enquiring about the next one - so here we go.
In an effort to make it easier to get too, the start will be at the top of Sutton Bank, which is not far off the A19, [url= http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=451700&Y=483165&A=Y&Z=120 ]HERE[/url]- there is a big car park and visitor centre. Meet around 9.30am with a 10am ride start.
The route measures 32 miles on MM and may well be 2-3 longer - there are some long climbs but some compensations in the form of technical singletrack and nice views! The only pub I have found on the route is two thirds of the way round so you will need to bring plenty of food and drink. It may well be after 5pm when we finish if it is a big group.
Right now I've got the dire warnngs out of the way, who wants to come and play?
wish i could but i'm doing centre parc's that weekend and i just got dirty looks when i suggested that i could just nip over for the day.
Hopefully be up for this DJ.
Off to Fort William for the weekend on the 25th of July, so may have some brownie point earning to do.
Better start now then.
Hope you can make it Vortex - maybe Jo will be fit by then????
Never mind izak - there is always September 🙂
I'm soooo there.
Definatly, This was where I grew up after moving to the UK...
Anyone need a lift from Manchester, then drop me a line.
Whats the route Deejay?

Cant wait.
John, Wors cant make this ride so I may well have 1 place available in the Jalopy.
yeah can't make it unfortunately, off to the lakes with the family.

Bugger will be biking in suisse normande, oh well take the rough with the smooth.
Looks like I'm around that weekend, looking forward to it,
I've put in an early request for the weather like in Settle...

A taster for you . . Gormire Lake
Tempted but may well be doing a camping/drinking/guitar playing trip that weekend - but if the weathers bobbins I'll be riding.......needs to sdhake those cobwebs off, got lazy with all my lift assisted riding:)
will mostly be in Croatia 😀
hoping that the next one or one after that I will be able to attend, if I`m not working that is 🙄
If you fancied a 7Stanes ride I know of a big bunk house belonging to the Scouts that may be available. Sleeps 20odd I think..in the middle of Ae, nowhere near civilisation 😉
Has anyone an MMO of the proposed route please? This is the first one on a weekend when I don't have the kids and I would like to join you.
Fizzer - email me and I will send you one

We're a definite now.

The cake quota just keeps rising
there needs to be plenty of cake as it's GF's birthday on 4th 😀
is this still on.................i do hope so.
i do like pineapple upside down cake soooooo much............ 😉
I will be there on my demo bike as I have had a visit from the night thieves (3 Bikes stolen 2 weeks ago). Ton can you still bring the rotors if you still have them as they left me my wheels for me. Ta
I am also a maybe - hence posted on this thread rather than the roll call one. Rather depends on children etc and I was thinking about going to the dig day at stainburn.
If I do go will be able to offer lift (probably for one) from North Leeds. pm me if interested.
I'm bringing a couple of mates from York Cycleworks..
