PEAKS POOTLE: Saturday 25th February

Mine would rhyme more

Santa Cruz oh Santa Cruz
Why did you leave me
Then comeback again?
I try so many
And spend a pretty penny
Only to see you Again

You need to start taking responsibility for your actions. It left because you sold it. It came back because you bought another one. Moreover, it’s an inanimate object or it would probably be saying this itself. Possibly on twitter, since that’s where most inanimate objects masquerading as people tend to hang out.

Sounds good, I might leave a football inflation needle in mine for a bit more damage.

I once rode a specialized hardrock
past a girl who was wearing a nice frock
a breeze came along
revealing her thong
and my shorts got ripped by my saddle.

Bugger, it doesn’t rhyme.

You probably need to invest in some better shorts, yours sounds quite friable…

Thats what mrsHora says to me when I reveal my magnificent meat-knotted-rope to her

You’re a very strange man Hora. Although admittedly I walked into that one.

Ooh I like when you talk filth!

this is turning into a swinley sexy party. We’ll have none of that smut round these parts…..

But I’m from Daan Sarf, it’s what we do!

Quick note, Mrs NBT’s been out of action all week with flu, she’s out of bed today which is great but there’s no way she’ll be riding next saturday. I might bob along, I might not, depends how this week goes,

No worries Jules – but fingers crossed for both of you being there

Not sure I’ll be able to make it, no one coming through this way, dad’s running the next day so wont be riding and I need to get out on a club ride before they all forget about me.

It’ll end up like this.

Hope BH is feeling better?
Looking forward to (hopefully) catching up with you both next weekend…..

right, back to training and carbing up 😉
2 x bacon butties, 2 x cappucino’s so far today…..
Bike fettled.
Meet mintimperial of this parish at 12.30, outside the local micro-brewery….
3 hour or so raid over the hill to Saddleworth, my playground when I were a lad.
Then back to the Yorkshire side o’ th’ill …quite likely popping in to said brewery… 🙂
All followed by a roast beef dinner 🙂

edit 2 – just pulled up a Cut Gate vid on youtube – if nowt else that might bed in my newly service forks – they feel cack at the moment…..

Well, we were out round Ladybower yesterday, and apart from a few frozen bits it wasn’t half bad. Much less mud than expected, which is nice!

thankyou fmc!

If its chucking it down or ultra-windy I’m not getting out of bed

FTFY

Train for the TdMB by riding over? Or if you can get to Hayfield, I might be persuaded to pick you up from there en route. That depends partly on what I do on Friday. Or more how my legs react to it…

Badlywiredog was stuck in a bog
Looking to ride
and feeling super fly
Instead he went to a shop, looking to buy
A Cannondale
and instead of the Pootle he rode the Yorkshire Dale

🙄

I could ride over, but I’d be knackered by the time I started the pootle, and would be at the back the whole time, which is no fun. Train makes reasonable sense though, as does going to Hayfield. With most people I’d assume they were driving from Hayfield when they suggest picking me up, but with you I have to make sure, are you driving? I can get a lift to Glossop actually, if that works?

train to hathersage, or even Sheffield!

Sam, I’m going and will give you a lift. We will have to call in at the Woodbine for breakfast though 😀 Will pick you up about 0845 ish!

I’m in.

First and last Peaks Pootle for me. Thought i’d make the effort to make at least one.

Cheers for organising it Pook.

That saves me the trouble of replying then. Sorted.

I was, by the way, suggesting that I drive over via Hayfield and pick you up en route rather than forcing you to ride from there to Ladybower against your will, though the look on your face would have been priceless…

Cheers Ady, makes everything very simple 🙂 Sounds good, I’ll see you Saturday.
EDIT: It certainly would be priceless, probably look something like this 😯 but with more despair.

I’m starting to get quite excited about this now. Weather looks pretty decent too.

Meh. It sounds rubbish and the leader’s a muppet.

I’m gutted as I can’t make this now due to a sprained knee that refuses to heal. 👿
Have a good un, here’s hoping I’ll make the next one if I still have two legs.

But muppets are AWESOME.

Hope you have a good one! Sorry I won’t be joining you now since the cancelled Trailquest at Longshaw has been rearranged onto that weekend.

There’s muppets as well. This will be almost as awesome as the surfing one!

surfing one?

We’ve had pootles wet enough to go surfing…

Yeah that one gave me Jocks Itch 😯

the ‘here comes the sun’ one?
