MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Who is up for this? I have never celebrated christmas for 20 years but since I have retired and my Julie died on me I am at a loose end,so which misanthropes, grinches and miserable old bastards want to join me for a bike ride on Christmas day?
this is not a pity call - I will go and ride my bike and enjoy my day anyway but if other grinches or miserable bastards want to join me in a cycle ride with plenty of "bah humbug" then please do
couple of hours drive from Edinburgh, early start, as long as you can be arsed riding, anyone being "jolly" will be beaten!
Who is up for it?
If you can be arsed driving over I'm thinking of a lap of kirroughtree before the mother n brother inlaw arrive
Are the Kirro trails much affected by the storms @duncancallum ?
Looking for (safe) places to ride over xmas.
Yeah they're shut at the moment. I'm hoping the main bits will be clear or enough that you cam get round with out to much hassle going to have a mooch tomorrow I've not been in the forrest yet...... It's that or a trip to the top of cairnsmore
The Grinch liked Christmas he just didn’t like people …. Oh wait. Carry on!
If we were closer we'd join you but it's a bit far. We'll be out either on the bike or on foot at some point though
I’d be well up for it just been up in the loft for the bloody tree and all the Tinseltown crap sat watching daughter decorate it while I have a grump AnD I got whammed yesterday by a bunch of selfish jolly SUP ers on the Leeds Liverpool canal one of the buggers had a mp3 going playing thAt bloody song so I’m out of that game now only problem is it’s a long way to go from West Yorkshire do you think I might find some miserable bastards near Wakefield ?
I will join you in spirit only, from sunny Norfolk as I always manage to get out for a couple of hours on Christmas Day while the dinner is cooking.
I find that after a pedal, I’m in a much better frame of mind to be able to deal with the strains of a family Christmas!
is it’s a long way to go from West Yorkshire do you think I might find some miserable bastards near Wakefield ?
yes mate, i will be doing a miserable bastard ride. early doors finishing at my lads in wakefield.
I’ve already agreed to go for a cycle to Crammond and back on Christmas morning with daughter #1 - I will give you a wave if I see you though 😀.
I was thinking of doing a Xmas morning ride at Hamsterly.
