group hug
This thread has got to be the worlds longest Leslie Phillips Ding Dong double entendre tribute ever!
But who cares? Im in if you'll have me.. 
LoulaBella - yep, can certainly relate to the comradeship thing. Sounds as though you girls are all supportive of each other which is brilliant.
Don't worry, I will get a Swinley ride sorted.
Rich - will have a natter with you this Sunday 🙂 In fact, why not keep me company on the sea crossing 😉
cinnamon_girl, if I was to come up on the train (I cant/wont drive) sometime for a ride would it be possible to be put up for a night, if a kind hearted soul lent me a sofa? Portsmouth is the end of the world, everywhere feels so far away!
Yep, no problem - there's room at CG Towers!! If you want to ride at Swinley, there is the option of Martin's Heron Station which is near Bracknell. It's only a short pedal to Swinley from there.
LoulaBella, if you're staying at CG's or nearby, do you want a lift to Purbecks and back this Sunday? I'm driving my Pug from Gatwick, it's an estate so space is ample, you're more than welcome to jump in. I'm a crap driver though I reckon 😉
I wish I could, thanks for the offer of a lift though, very kind.
Cheers CG it will great when I can finally put faces to names!
Right im off to spend some time with Dan he has just offered me a cold bottle of Cobra beer to tempt me away from the laptop...........
I can recommend CG towers as a great place to stay , I must return soon.
100!
I'll get to swinley one day!
hmmmm, not bad at all :o)
Put it away Barnes! 😀
Lucky shades!
Good luck with your new group LB. It's always great to see more and more women out on the trails, we've still some way to go though.
I belong to a Ladies group of 40 odd women. Even though I enjoy riding with them. I much prefer a mixed group, as Aleigh said the banter is always great fun.
I'm looking forward to my first STW ride for ages with Ton and the gang in Yorkshire, 4th, October.

OK, knottie, I get the message 😀 Will try and put up a thread tomorrow.
Bunnyhop - that's a huge group! Next year I would definitely like to get to some Northern rides but need to WTFU first 🙄
OMG that pic Dan took of me at Alice Holt!
here she is in a shot from some kind of 70's hippy album cover
And that the moment where SFB goes blind...

Is ms Bella wearing Skorts on that pic?
Yes from Pearl Izumi, its very practical you know.
That pics from my flickr account so I guess MrMWright has been having a look eh?
i like feeding the trolls 🙂
It entertains my evil side
:STROKES CAT:
oh and FYI every photo on Flickr has a unique number, it's not difficult to find the posters flickr site form the pictures they put up on here.
In fact, you are breaking the Flickr T&Cs by directly linking to photos without a link back to it's flickr photo page 😉

Hmmm, never did figure out how to do that...
google is your friend
yep the link thingy, nope never bother.
My flickr is there for all to enjoy! Though most of it is pretty boring 😥
And that the moment where SFB goes blind...
I can say that I have seen many photos of women, some with far less clothing, without ill effect to date :o)
Dibs fourth from left thanks 😯
It may help if the original photo of the ladies group was edited and reposted with something discreet like a green tick above the available ladies and a red x above those unavailable.
if any GWR like guys that are shy, mature, rubbish on a bike, cant flirt and is nervous around girls then thats me!! 😉
When does a scottish GWR ride begin??
Just want to thanks for all the compliments for starting up the group and all the (helpful) comments from the lovely STW blokes we love you all.
Looking forward to the QE Park day and hope to bring some of the ladies to a STW group ride sometime soon. Cannot tell you who is single/taken thats up to the girls to let you know, if they like you.
I take it this ride is still on for Saturday? I think we'll be coming..
🙂
Have a good one everybody and don't forget to post up pics. I don't think I can make this after all..next time though!
Loulabella, what area do you live/ride in?
I'm looking for a person/people to ride and train with. I live near Cuffley in Hertfordshire.
I don't care whether you're male or female (or both...) just as long as you like to ride off road.
Karin - There's a few of us (blokes) on here who ride near you. Drop me an email (in profile) if you'd like to come out sometime.
Hey,
I live in Portsmouth and ride around Hampshire and west sussex mostly. Im gutted that I wont be at QE Park today as my little boy is really ill, he hasnt eaten for 3 days now! Its so sad 🙁
GWR is going really really well I cant believe all the ladies that have been in touch its awesome.
Were having a social (beer drinking) on the 28th (this includes a guest speaker every month) so email me if your up for it Karin and a ride around near Arundal in November.
Just to say that our guest speaker this month is Jill who rides a fixie and works for ilovedust
www.ilovedust.com
and did art/design on 'the ride journal'

so drop me a line any ladies who want to come to Jills talk.
Lou x
p.s some bodies will be QE today anyhow I think so enjoy the beautiful sun and think of me nursing my little lad at home.
We've just arrived and can't find anyone who looks like they are meeting for a ride yet.....
😕
The venue changed PP - didn't anyone tell you?
No nobody said a thing. I had a quick scan through the thread yesterday but if it's mentioned here I missed it
ffffing waste of time, £10 petrol, £5.80 lunch whilst we waited and £1 car park that was.
How did I miss this thread?
:o)
I wish I'd never seen it myself.
chakaping - MemberKarin - There's a few of us (blokes) on here who ride near you. Drop me an email (in profile) if you'd like to come out sometime.
Yeah, there are one or two of us floating around.
I seem to have been out most weekends this summer, that's possibly going to die down a bit now the crapper weather is settling in. Probably not though 🙂
I'm so sorry, as far as I was aware other riders were going and I'm not personally responsible for them. I am however responsibly for a 2 and 4 year old at home which has resulted in me having to cancel my last 2 rides, at short notice.
Being a Mum and trying to have a 'social' life is not working, maybe thats why you dont see many women out.
Sorry if your upset PP please dont take it personal like.
Like I said I cant be responsible for others not 'showing' and I cant help being a Mum first and formost, it does suck sometimes. I had to miss out on gorgeous weather today too and feel really shitty about being cooped up inside when I'd rather be riding.
