[Closed] STW Northern Chapter February Ride................Nidderdale.

Should be in good order that ale too Ton. Its only brewed over the hill.

Black sheep mmmmmmmm.
All we need is some hipflasks with some spirits, now where's Justme?

Me and Mr Cooroo (aka StuE for some reason) would love to come too. Will make flapjacks if I'm feeling organised...

deejay might have to lead this.
i might be out on my roadbike riding up and down the a1 😆

what sort of climbing will you be planning?

stu, the kind that two old fat blokes can puff and pant up, while talking tosh............

Hmmm...I'll be off that day & I'll have been married for a week! She might want me out of her way by then.
Sounds like a plan.

If it was Ton in the Incredible pose, I would be waiting for the biggest exhale I have ever heard 🙂

just a reminder..

Should be up for this all being well, does anyone know if the parking is free or pay & display (don't know the area at all sorry!)?

pay and display.

Yep, me and the girls will be there providing the rain isn't horizontal and/or wind galeforce.

i,ll be coming , soz for the late notice

mart

You do realise its Nidderdale. It can go from glorious heavenly sunshine, to hellish rain and fog, in about 4 seconds. All good though.

Chew, living a couple of valleys away I know what it's like. I just never fancy starting in 'orrible conditions. Previous trips up Nidd have always had a wide range of weather, hey ho, I don't fancy soggy cake!

After today's poor effort in Kentmere, looks like i'll be along on this, but will also be a mid 40's pusher at the back.

Do me a favour Ton, don't throw any daft big hills in at the end please 😥

Thats my job 😉

We are all too fully aware of that, any chance of you not being so good at it next time 😆

Ton - keep it up big fella. I can't make this one as having a Welsh trail centre weekend.

I would be very interested to know the route if you could publish it after the event ?

any chance of you not being so good at it next time

I have one of the steepest bits of tarmac waiting for you when you come to Swaledale . . . . at about mile 26 😉

Oh - and then the offroad starts 😀

Roll call ?

Sunday March 7th 9-10am at Stainburn, working on the descent line extension plus Pook is gonna help us make a short promo vid for Norwood.

Once we finish the extension we can brash out the new stuff in Norwood...

Anybody know what the conditions are like up there?

Presuming that there is still a reasonable amount of snow up there. Rideable or ice fest?

looks good

Hopefully all he rain will clear any remaining snow.

Are you passing through central Leeds Ton? I'll cough up parking money and bring cake.

Also do you have that Leeds to Wakefield offroad route?
