Yep, good ride today and good to meet you guys/girls and just got away with the weather too. Glad everybody enjoyed themselves.
I had a look at the big bike bash site, looks good so have decided to take the whole family down.
Glles/captain we will have to hook up for more rides as your local!

Cheers all, another good ride all round, finishing perfectly with cream tea ๐Ÿ™‚

Must post up some info about the next Purbecks thing. Free music festival at the Square and Compass on 13/14th June. For some reason, the idea of music, alcohol and riding being combined into one event seems important to me.....

Those photos don't do justice to the steepness of that drop. That could have ended really badly.

Another good ride today, lots of ups and lots of nice downs. Nice to see you all.

Captain, let me know when you're free (Wed evenings 6ish and Sun mornings 10ish are best).

CG, will look into routes/dates for an Andover/North Hampshire day out.

Glad you liked it, and thanks again for Heathy and C_B for taking us over the wood down Erlestoke. Sorry for the concrete white horse, but if I told you that, nobody would have come...The Bluebell picture is great!

heathy - thanks for the local info on the gee-gee. Apparently there are 8 white horses in Wiltshire and Oxfordshire and there's a 90 mile walking route.

Anyone else up for this challenge? It could be split over a couple of weekends. Maps are currently scattered on the table so let planning commence 8)

Such nice smiley people in Wiltshire on Monday, unlike those miserable so and so's in the Chilterns on Saturday ๐Ÿ™„

CG you have great ideas for bike rides and plan ace routes! I hope one day I can do maps too. Yep, the folk were tops on Monday weren't they. Thought they were nice in Dorset as well. You should boycott The Miserable Chilterns and the miserable chilterners. There's enough riding where the happy folk are.

Thanks Anna!

Hey, don't knock the Chilterns too much though cos there's some really good riding. In fact, if you fancy a ride there let me know and I will happily show you around the parts I know.
