PEAKS POOTLE: 14th July – it's been a while

NO! I’M NBT, oh hang on a minute, I am his wife 🙂

Do people wear labels stating their forum names?

‘pacey’ pootle

Mmmm, sounds like an interesting oxymoron.

Any thoughts NBT?

Cheers
Paul

Do people wear labels stating their forum names?

no, we just carry the stigma…

Sadly we’ll miss this one – we’ll be at Basque MTB with GRAEMEJONES!

The wife and I will toast you from the wedding we’ve already been invited to down south

Always on a Saturday 🙁 one of the joys of being in retail is that I can 100% guarantee I will be working 🙁

I could well be interested in joining in, but it depends on 2 things! Firstly the state of my legs, I’m dong an Ironman distance tri 2 weeks before and secondly, actually having a bike for it! Planning a little purchase form OnOne early next month, but I need to get rid of the current bike! So I could be between steeds with trashed legs!
Where do these pootles normally start from?

How about myself and phil56 having a Spanish Pootle,hmm, sunshine, dusty trails and maybe finish off with cold beer ?No thanks, I’m booked in with Doug now so I’ll have to go Spain instead 😥

Hells – they are peaks pootles. Normally dark peak places.

We don’t wear badges with names on but if you look closely, someone might have it as a sticker on their toptube. I think I’ve talked the Mrs into it. She’s even rescheduling a hair appointment for it.

Best make it a good one then.

Noobs welcome? Not rode round there with a group for a while mainly hermit rides.

Oh yes – that’s exactly what the pootles are all about!

Thats my birthday weekend, it’s also the Derby beer festival
I will be there only in spirit (or ale)

Sounds good! I’ll be there, legs and bike permitting!
I’ll keep an eye on this thread!

Got a wedding… not too worry, next time….
Have fun, folks 🙂

Oops wrong thread

Flippinheckler – re how far people travel; we’ve had some folks come from Hampshire, Norfolk, Buckinghamshire….

That’s not very far, last one I went to I drove down from a house party in Redcar at midnight and slept in the back seat and was frying up a bacon sarnie with another STWer from Devon the next morning, so they’re well travelled!

Fingers crossed i can sort out some childcare and get myself along, bloomin gf is booked in at clarins in the middle of the day and a black tie do in the evening.

I’ll have to make sure i clear all the mud off me first 😀

@pook, I’m due to be away that weekend which is a shame as I still owe you a personal thank you for your route ideas.

The last Pootle I went on was a testing one (December11) where it rained cold and hard from virtually start to finish 😆

Do people wear labels stating their forum names?

Yeah, always. Night and day. Anyway, won’t be able to make this as I’ll be flying overhead in an aeroplane on the way back from sunny Deutschland. I shall try and spot you and wave frantically if they put us into a holding loop over the Peak…

someone might have it as a sticker on their toptube

“Someone” hasn’t been on a Pootle for a while and due to it being Buxton Carnival that day (family BBQ, drinking etc), that someone isn’t likely to be on this one either…

…unless of course I’m not the only one with forum name on top tube 😳

jambalaya….a personal thankyou?

Oo er Mrs…. not with the kids watching…..

bwd – just keep an eye out for tyre tracks in the snow.

bumped for newbie vic.

Hello!

Yay! Cumon Vic! 😀

Can I come too please? Getting back on my bike again after a break (and too much cake) so save me a space at the back.

Don’t know about that zesty. The back is a popular and busy place on these things.

Sounds perfect Onzadog! Looking forward to getting back into it and meeting some folks.

even hora?

even hora?

I’m not yet familiar with the legend that is Hora but will find out before the ride just in case it involves me having to bring pepper spray or my titanium chastity belt.

I will come and pootle with all of you 😀

WAHEY!

I have videos of hora too. Let me dig around a bit

😆

You thinking about playing out DD? We can probalby sort out a bike loan for you since I seem to recall you don’t actually have a working MTB? 😉

I think we should wear name badges, if only so that vic knows who to avoid….

May I tag along, would be nice to ride the local trails with a group?

Hora looks harmless!!! Best still take the pepper spray though zesty7 😉
