How do all,

well, after such a cracking day out as we had this weekend, it only seems right to have another.

So, meeting at [b]10am,[/b]
[b]at Barber Booth layby [/b]
[url= http://www.multimap.com/s/h4VgLzq8 ]here,[/url]
and heading out on the original loop we'd planned for the last ride

So, up Mam Tor to Hollins Cross, over Rushup Edge, Pennine Bridleway, Mount Famine, up Oaken Clough and down the famous Jacob's Ladder

Parts will be a little boggy, but it's winter! Also Hora will lead you to the finest burgers in Edale.....

Can you please stop arranging Peaks rides for a few months. I'm still under curfew following surgery, and it's getting very annoying.
😥 😀 🙄

Mary, look on the bright side. You are missing the cold, wet and snow. When you come out for a ride it will be GLORIOUS SUNSHINE! 😀

I'm in!

As long as you don't mind waiting at every gate for me. 🙁

Will do a warm up ride on the Thursday evening to loosen up a bit, cos I felt super rough last weekend.

It was fun "maxing out the rad" for the camera, any keen photo type people coming again??

I would not mind tagging along for this one, give the pig a good thrashing...I am pretty slow though, always worry about going on group rides, thinking that I will just get left behind!

Mate, I'm awfully slow on the ups - Robdob was pushing quicker than I was riding some hills.

I liked it. The fast climbers waited patiently at the top and the first to descend waited patiently at the bottom.

Everyone talked (alot) and there were only two mechanicals (punctures)- perfik 😀

TJ On some rides I have felt very very guilty about people waiting for me at the top. When I eventually made it above Hagg farm I actually had to keep going as I was that knackered (if I had stopped I would have been finished)

Err, that was meant to illustrate my speed rather than the fact you pushed a bit - sorry! You've got a big bike, I'd have been pushing it too!

Are you going to make everyone else look a bit pathetic by beating us all on your SS cross bike again?

That was on the other bit. Dont say things like this on a public forum. you never know there may be a single female cyclist who actually likes over-weight looking men like me. She'll see that bit and think 'urrg forget it' 8)

You did well with two odd/unfamiliar brakes tbh. I'd have been flumoxed.
