STW Peaks pootlers – 23rd jan peaks loop?

July

be fine 😆

They may be red but they look pink. Anything else on your bike pink?

define rideable?

I did it in march last year and it was alright. Especially after the snow, I'd give it a good while yet ..

IF I come, dependant on whether I can sort transport and how much snow is pedicted to be there, I'll probably bring my (Black/faun) Stumpjumper FSR

my nose and ears will both be pink on Friday. Hora's wearing a tutu though for th craic.

Rideable? Bunch of bikers together trying their damnedest to ride and laughing despite the conditions? Like I say, may do a recce later this weeek. Stay tuned.

eek

Half will show. If you want the lot to show invite along some girls!

Sure girls would love to turn up to that…

Also. For the record I can't ride a Unicycle, have tried, but just can't.

I estimate 18 riders. Whoever is closest gets a pint at the end bought for them?

22 for me.

I've asked my gf to make a cake

Oooo errr

I'll go 19. 35 would be great but i can't see it happening!!

35 riders 😆 snow would soon turn to slush. I'll ride at the back thanks 😉

to be honest, i very much i will be able to make this one… Be amazed if i do turn up

Lyons, should I bring some inners and outer cable for you?

Have to go out so haven't got time to read the whole thread, so 2 questions.
1) Where exactly is the meeting point?

2) What time?

Please.

I may also bring cake type food.

10am, barber booth layby. The full details are in one bold post on page 6 or 5.

Details

nope, my scott is all gore ride on-ed up, just quite busy, I'm off to a stag do on friday night, then going to someones house at 8 am to quote a re-wire for them, i couldnt really not go to the stag do, and if i get this job ( i have dne small bits for them before so hope i will) it will be worth a few bob, and may even pay for my transwales frame….

All these 'names' remind me of Laser Quest from my yoof 😆

I think I'm riding with a mate on Saturday, but if not, may come along. I was on the last ride, the one from Ladybower, Pace RC405.

looked fairly clear when i came through Edale today, just bits and bobs of snow

Can everyone wear a badge please?

And I'm not joking.

Although my riding will be. :-/

I'll go for 16. Pessimistic I suppose but it's cold out there y'know? 😉

I might wear a red badge

Is that a pink shade of red or red red?? 😉

I can wear a jersey with my name on the back. It's not the one I use on here though so probably won't help

Think you know who i'll be.

Well its my first outing on the 456 on the Peaks. I miss my Blur4x already but Im sick of the grit in the bearings etc 🙁
(It feels like Im going out on the town in my sweatpants and a ripped tshirt) instead of my finery…

Will are you out on the CX again?

yup. Good idea considering we'll be pushing a lot.

Dudes – I see or at least I think it's my user name is down for this by default or is 'steelforreal' an imposter !!??

Any road, I can't make this 'event', much as I would enjoy showing Hora his old frame built up & ridden (sorry, pushed) in anger !

Chris, you're right in thinking that my default setting would be to come along but I'm going to have to blob. Have a good one and I hope everyones got your phone number so you don't get left behind and Lyons is going to actually bring a bike that is both built and working !

steel4real- at last. You've finally built it? 😆

I'm jsut back from driving over the tops of Saddleworth etc. Its clearing very well bearing in mind up there gets some serious weather over winter (and temp drops).

Put my name down too. Not been to the Peaks in a long time so a gentle ride / push sounds like a plan.

mmm. Full susser just in case it is clear, or nice light bike for pushing and carrying duties (with no suspension)? I will be debating this until tomorrow morning. I may even bring both and debate it in the layby 😆

It's going to be good 😀

Pick the bike up last night, now has freash brake cables and pads, i'll be able to stop now!

I too am debating full sus or ti hard tail. What is the riding to walking ratio likely to be?

My rear wheel fell off last night. Twice.

Did last night rain fall as rain or snow up there then?

Chris was that your new wheel?

What is the riding to walking ratio likely to be?

judging by the rain in Leek, there could be some paddling too

no it was the borrowed cheapo wheel. NO big problem. Just a bit of a pain.
Pick you up at 9am?
