See you guys at 10 @ Edale... looking forward to it! 😀
Pook, thanks again for a great days riding and thanks to everyone else for the great company (and Hora!) 😆
Chris, thanks for arranging the ride, I had to head off before Mam Nick, it was great, cheers James
cheers pook for organising it and Popocatapetl for giving me a lift, and skiprats bro for the duct tape for my shorts. thanks to everyone else for a great day, especially those that fed me!
I was tempted to try find you guys part way round but went and bought some new bits instead
Thanks Chris, awesome ride.
Totally knackered now.
Great day out- no rain and no injuries. Dog-tired mind 8)
Cheers Chris for another great ride , see ya all on the next one.
Sweet, cheers! Great ride, especially that last oh-my-god! descent.. 😀
I'll let you in on a little secret. I didn't know that last descent was going to be that good. I've done it many a time but always had to stay out of the gullies as they've been too wet.
It was like a toboggan run today....uplift anyone?
Great ride today. Some of the videos look ace! Anyone going to upload their photos?
😀
What was the last descent?
Mam Nick to Edale.
No name I don't think. But I'm going to call it the Toboggan Run
Thanks for organising the ride Chris, really enjoyed today.
Been telling the wife about it and now she wants to come on the next ride.
Paul
Thanks for a great ride, folks.
I really enjoyed the company. 😀
Thanks again chris for sorting this ride...
and what a great group.. looking forward to the next one.
chris
funny i always found the descent a bit too short. Wouldn't really say better. Each to their own I suppose.
I'm slowly seizing up now!
😀
just woken up !legs are a bit stif but still buzzing....so thank you pook for organizing had a fantastic day
i might do the vid today....
'morning. Anyone have the actual stats of elevation climbed etc?
chris nunns is the man....
I'll ring him. It's not too early for a sunday morning...
😀
4554 ft of climbing. 21.5 miles
surprisingly, I am absolutely fine now but I need to clean my bike. I'm going to make some jumps in the field now 😀
Just to say thanks to everyone who shared their food with me (and water- thanks Pook). I had the hunger-shakes at the top of Cavedale 🙁 I really need to sort out my pre-ride food intake.
Did you go for a burger at the Rambler?
Did you go for a burger at the Rambler?
Bear? Woods? 8)
I was going to say
did you get a burger in the Rambler
but thought that could be mistaken for a euphemism 😯
Great ride guys, thanks to Chris as usual for being the 'Cub Scout Leader', i have a few pics i will upload shortly
nice one chris, still grinning this morning from those last 2 descents! it would be so easy to do shuttles on that last one, just need a car big enough...
sounds like i missed out big time on that last one, will go up there sometime in the next 2 weeks. to keep the uplift thought alive, how about renting a minibus and van for the day 😛
you did sambob, a real ear to ear grin maker!
im working on a free option, got a trailer doing nowt which i can convert and a 7 seater car, just need a towbar...
i thought id need new brake pads for sure but not worn at all. bonus!
we could ask misterP very politely if we could borrow his MASSIVE van 😛
crapo video. might do a better one
good effort chris, not an easy one to film with just one static camera, must sort my helmet cam out for the next ride so we can combine footage.
cheers Chris and all! a great intro to me of some of the peaks trails. Sounds like a shame I had to cry off early at Aston, but at least that leaves more for me to discover another day 🙂
Cheers Pook
excellent ride enjoyed this one very much, not been rubbing it in with Skiprat much lol.
heres to the next one and many more.
nice one. looks like another pook classic.
i'm now mobile again chris, so when's the next one? 😀
im looking forward to seeing the photo's from the day inc the group shots...ive not done a ride with so many before will they be posted on this thread ?
cheers
chris
