is that different to an iPhone?...
...gets coat.
Weather looks dry but breezy on Saturday chaps
So how many are riding this Saturday so far?
Me and two buddies will be along. I will be on a gold Giant Reign X and answer to "Daim", "Damian" or "Oi!"
Sounds like it's going to get busy 🙂
I think that Sherwood Pines may introduce a 'congestion charge' after this weekend.
I feel sorry for any poor sod thats on a bike but not involved in this meet - they'll be wondering whats going on!

just thought of a collective term for a group of mountain bikers - 'a whinge'

Lol - I may be matt_outandaabout +1.....!
I think I've got a pass out so I'll be there but it has rained and it may rain again on Thursday. It will give you a chance to explain how everything is perfect Gravy.
Its not that I dislike the pines, it was superb last summer.
It rained all summer, except the 2 weeks I was in the Alps, 😕
Abductee, I am of the same opinion of most of the bikers and of course your self. So much more could have been done when Clixbys were there. I will explain.
I might be there, with my mate on his new Trek

It's going to be such fun!
May well be able to get a pass out too, either my (orange) Love/ Hate or grey Motolite (if I sort the gears!!).
Wow, If everyone turns up that will be 27 currently. That's more than the new years eve Swinley Forest ride I was on!
It'll be like a midlands bogtrotters ride, but who's going to be sfb?
A couple of days late for this thread, but count me in.
I will be there too!!! Just look for the very green bike!!
I'll be on a green bike also 😆
I'll be the lanky one 🙄
Got my pass sorted, now just need to get my car running again.
I hope nobody minds if i call them by the wrong name, I am officialy useless at remebering peoples names
I'll bring the Camera then ! 💡 smile
We should have name badges 😆
My bb bearings are ****ed but i have stripped and greased them. Freehub bearings are ****ed but that can wait. Anyone bringing a tow rope?!.
Frame is clean though 😕
Yes longstuff, freehub bearings you will not need...as it is all up hill!
I'll be wearing a red rose!
Spud - MemberI'll be wearing a red rose!
I won't be, but I'm sure that I'll be sporting a red face as I'm rather unfit at the moment!
I've fixed my car now, so there's nothing standing between me and getting out on the bike now though.
Do we need to pre-order cake at the cafe?
Oh it's gonna be mad ! There is more than one cafe Matt, the one on site and another just off after some great singletrack 😛
UP HILL? ....i don't do "up hill"
You could ride all of the pines on a 44 16t combination, you'd be fine 😆
how do all. Been away for the day and I've come back to this.
Have i got to make a speech?

Who's bringing the register?
Been years since I went to the 'pines, where is this cafe then?
can't miss it once you're in there, it's one of the buildings in the main area. I'll be in a red top.
This is me in my exact garb for Saturday

not long got back from night ride, trails seem to be ok in general. dry in all the right places, just ask gravy! some of the sweeter trails should be good if this weather holds up. now getting excited. never had so many new platmates to lose in the woods 😈 👿
Pook ,I expect a hand made sign AND a speech
ok so I've got the names. I now need
Badges
a megaphone
a hand made sign
a speech.
and to think I only wanted a ride in the woods....
😕
Pook - Member
and to think I only wanted a ride in the woods....
Plenty of Dogging at night i'm sure 😉
Will, I've not even met you yet.
😆
We will be expecting a goody bag at the end of the ride too as a nice memento of the day 😀
Theboatman
have a look at orena45's post on page 1 And the subsequent post by thefallguy its just off the coast of Mogadishu if you don't paste the whole link into your address bar.
its looking like a good turnout for saturday, should be a good day, I was in the pines tonight and it was mostly dry with only the most die hard muddy sections refusing to dry out totally.
the weather forecast that I saw last night for Saturday doesn't look very promising... 😥
Its only rain, what harm can it do 🙂
