Who's up for a spin round the Forest of Dean on Sunday 7th Nov then? Singlespeeds only as gears will just get in the way 🙂
I will give out time and place nearer the time.

I might come along, still haven't converted my mtb to SS though so it'll be one of my first off-road SS rides and I'll probably die halfway round. I also don't have a beard, is there any hope for me?

Beards Optional
and yes Tom if you're not dead half way round I've made it too easy.

Just a thought for Rich and anyone else who fancies it there is a bunk house attached to the Fountain Inn Pub at Parkend, get yourselves in there for the night, the start is only a couple of flat miles from there.

Excellant looks as those I might bring some of the old boys I ride with, hopefully the night ride will start and finish @ the pub?
