    I intend to be there. I will be bringing a boot-full of flapjack. Should be more than enough for everyone.

    I’ll be there, was thinking about putting the garage build plastic fantastic together but not sure
    a) If can be bothered to swap over all the running gear and change the fork air spring tomorrow
    b) it might come across as a bit showy off
    c) it looks like a plasters radio at the min
    Plus last time i took it out on a group ride just got the usual comments of what i should have done different.

    Anyway i’ve been on 2 previously might even have been 3! Anways been a good day even if i dont talk much.

    I saw that pic and thought “ooh, that’s nicely lit”.

    You’re so vain, you probably think this photo’s about you

    then I thought, “oooh, that looks like me!”

    Oh you do too!

    Cheers James. I will take you up on that.

    Martyn, I might consider it if I can find a whole one rather than a cut ‘n’ shut.

    A Pootle would be my level of speed and technicality. I’ve been out of sorts recently so missed the updated thread. I’m definitely up for a future Pootle with a bit of notice, mainly down to working odd shifts.

    I’ll be in the red Clio with a fatty on the roof. Come to me if you want flapjack. I’ll have a little stash with me on the trail, but I’ll have about 13kg of flapjack in the car so come pre-ride for your own.

    That’s good, we done feel so bad now. We’ll be a little late as well. The good news is when we arrive, there isn’t loads of faff needed at that end.

    Really enjoyed today – thanks everyone for your help, encouragement, patience, flapjack etc etc.

    V-brake pads are very dead.

    Edit to add: thanks to Baz for pulling me out the puddle/lake.
