It's also crap unless you do 3 laps at speed.
Think we should stick to dark peak and ride/walk a route.
KTM 250 scrambler
i will be pushing a Kracken after i`ve come off it quite a few times.
IF i come.
Scott scale
its my birthday on 23rd!
i'd go to Cannock if I'm on a promise. Anyone has a nice sister? Otherwise...no!
Matthew H - White Santa Cruz Nomad with red wheels
Right i am going to try and make this by driving back from liverpool on friday, ride in the morning and head back to liverpool sat night and back to sheff on sunday lets hope the snake is open by then! , if i do i'll be on either a grey 5spot or white genesis alptitude both of which are bound to suffer mechanicals at some point.
Robdob - Pitch Pro
Will - SS Tricross
Podge - Specialized Rockhopper (black)
Skiprat - On One Scandal
MarkB - Chameleon (cream)
stilltortoise - Whyte 46, or Bianchi fully rigid if we really are walking
sambob - merida matts 50-d
ourkidsam - 456 in THAT blue
I can also confirm Pook's chain ring bolts are definitely pink.
So the plan still is the route at a push 😉
It'll be laugh I reckon. May recce later in the week though.
and yes, I am a bishop my son.
AND MY RING BOLTS ARE RED.
i know not for this one, but how long do you think it will be untill cut gate is rideable? i really enjoyed tht path when i rode it in 2008, so we should plan that for another one?
July
be fine 😆
They may [i]be[/i] red but they [i]look[/i] pink. Anything else on your bike pink?
define rideable?
I did it in march last year and it was alright. Especially after the snow, I'd give it a good while yet ..
IF I come, dependant on whether I can sort transport and how much snow is pedicted to be there, I'll probably bring my (Black/faun) Stumpjumper FSR
my nose and ears will both be pink on Friday. Hora's wearing a tutu though for th craic.
Rideable? Bunch of bikers together trying their damnedest to ride and laughing despite the conditions? Like I say, may do a recce later this weeek. Stay tuned.

Half will show. If you want the lot to show invite along some girls!
Sure girls would love to turn up to that...
Also. For the record I can't ride a Unicycle, have tried, but just can't.
I estimate 18 riders. Whoever is closest gets a pint at the end bought for them?
22 for me.
I've asked my gf to make a cake
Oooo errr
I'll go 19. 35 would be great but i can't see it happening!!
35 riders 😆 snow would soon turn to slush. I'll ride at the back thanks 😉
to be honest, i very much i will be able to make this one... Be amazed if i do turn up

Lyons, should I bring some inners and outer cable for you?
Have to go out so haven't got time to read the whole thread, so 2 questions.
1) Where exactly is the meeting point?
2) What time?
Please.
I may also bring cake type food.
10am, barber booth layby. The full details are in one bold post on page 6 or 5.

All these 'names' remind me of Laser Quest from my yoof 😆
I think I'm riding with a mate on Saturday, but if not, may come along. I was on the last ride, the one from Ladybower, Pace RC405.
looked fairly clear when i came through Edale today, just bits and bobs of snow
Can everyone wear a badge please?
And I'm not joking.
Although my riding will be. :-/

I'll go for 16. Pessimistic I suppose but it's cold out there y'know? 😉
I might wear a red badge
Is that a pink shade of red or red red?? 😉
I can wear a jersey with my name on the back. It's not the one I use on here though so probably won't help
Think you know who i'll be.
Well its my first outing on the 456 on the Peaks. I miss my Blur4x already but Im sick of the grit in the bearings etc 🙁
(It feels like Im going out on the town in my sweatpants and a ripped tshirt) instead of my finery...
Will are you out on the CX again?
yup. Good idea considering we'll be pushing a lot.
Dudes - I see or at least I think it's my user name is down for this by default or is 'steelforreal' an imposter !!??
Any road, I can't make this 'event', much as I would enjoy showing Hora his old frame built up & ridden (sorry, pushed) in anger !
Chris, you're right in thinking that my default setting would be to come along but I'm going to have to blob. Have a good one and I hope everyones got your phone number so you don't get left behind and Lyons is going to actually bring a bike that is both built and working !
steel4real- at last. You've finally built it? 😆
I'm jsut back from driving over the tops of Saddleworth etc. Its clearing very well bearing in mind up there gets some serious weather over winter (and temp drops).
Put my name down too. Not been to the Peaks in a long time so a gentle ride / push sounds like a plan.
mmm. Full susser just in case it is clear, or nice light bike for pushing and carrying duties (with no suspension)? I will be debating this until tomorrow morning. I may even bring both and debate it in the layby 😆
It's going to be good 😀
Pick the bike up last night, now has freash brake cables and pads, i'll be able to stop now!
