Following on from the excellent Pines map thread earlier, does anyone fancy a ride on the 14th?
I'd say yes almost deffinatly as i'm home that weekend. Should be good!
I'd be up for a meet. Its my local riding spot and it'd be nice to not have to travel too far to put names to faces.
Hmmm...What tires? 😉
black ones!
😆
I'll stay away then if there's going to be a mass invasion 😉
Sounds good to me, had never heard of the place before that thread, same distance as Dalby so make a nice change.
Could be up for that as I've never ridden there before despite only living down the road in Derby! 🙂
I might well be tempted into a little jaunt around the woods..
I'd like to join the gang to if I may.
Bloody hell, a right gang!
I'm up for some of that too Pook, what time etc. Cheers. 😳
14th sounds good to me 🙄
I'm going to put it out there...10.30am?
thats ok for me
Can't be too early, i have to ride there 😆
Yep, if I can dump the kid with me mam( I mean allow my daughter to spend some quality time with her grandma..ahem), then I would also like to join this band of merry men...see what I did there
hello chaps,
10.30am at the cafe then chaps/chappesses?
Excellent
Sounds like a Plan. Might have a cheeky look at the trails on friday, asses the tire situation 😆 😉
Thats good for me, gonna get me mates to come along too gonna be a right laff. 😳
Oh yeah, I get 10% off at the cafe. 🙄
Oooo more bacon cobs then 🙂
Not having been there, is this the cafe's location?:
(taken from the FC site). It's also says on there;
CLOSING TIME 6PM THE FOREST PARK WILL BE HOSTING CAR RALLIES ON THE FOLLOWING DATES IN 2009 14TH MARCH 13TH JUNE 21ST NOVEMBER.THE CYCLE TRAILS WILL BE CLOSED ON THIS DAY AND ACCESS IS LIMITED TO THE SPECTATOR AREAS
...hope that doesn't affect things?! 🙂

if you look at the map in the above thread the cafe is about 100m to the left of the cycle shop. So on the day park up and from the carpark if the shop is directly opposite then the cafe is to the right 100m away just past toilets. Just follow the hoards of stw crew
just checked and it will be closed on the 14th due to the rally... bugger!
Dam! Well i'll just go photographing there instead 🙄
Shame, that would have been fun.
cant make that weekend , just as well, but could make the next weekend
i'm booked up till the 1st June from the 20th March 🙁
Dam exams!
Rallye was cancelled due to lack of uptake, so youre back on
I might be up for it too - will have to check SWMBO hasn't got plans for me that I don't know about...
/scurries off to ask if he can go out to play..
my advice is wait for it to dry out it's very muddy indeed. I went on sunday and it was drying nicely. 1 days rain on tuesday followed by 2 days without rain went back today and its proper muddy. I think it needs a week without rain to make it worth while.
Was good Monday really dry, was worried about Wed night after the bad weather on Tuesday but trails were still mostly ok just some standing water in places.
Still on for the 14th then!?
i should be ok for the 14th - best start praying to the weather gods...
I'll see if I can get over Jon. We're on the breakfast run there this weekend so may not have enough points in the bag by the follwoing weekend 🙂
Back on! Great 🙂
Morning all - well hasn't a lot happened over night!!!
In summary;
Still on for the 14th, 10.30am, at the cafe. It can be muddy.
I like the summary 😆
Someone gonna bring along a camera and that? I've got one of them video camera things that goes on me noggin'
As have i Pook - Helmet hero wide.
Might bring my DSLR, don't really liek taking it out on bike, so if i can find a cheaper camera i'll bring that.
Maybe post your real names too?
Mine is...Will
Mine is Chris, and this is me
[url]
ohhh, I might be game for this..
mine is ... dawson - well I do have a first name, but nobody uses that even my kids call me Daddy Dawson...
I wouldn't want anybody to think that i was ignoring them if they shouted using my 'real' name!
Jon - Jonathan - oi! - Tricky - J
any of the above
