STW Peaks Pootlers – February 13th

Am free on weekends 6/7 and 13/14 March. Then having operation on my hand on 20th

Are you a psychic with injuries?

😆

**** it. I will do tomorrow. Always do the shorter ride the day after a longer one!

If any takers for tomorrow I'll be at the Edale layby circa 10.30. I wont be in a rush to set off as Im on the old sauce tonight 🙄

🙁

😉

couple of things to do tomorrow but i can do sunday

Sunday? Ok. Sunday then. Im like a sail in the frigging wind. Sunday it is.

I'll mail you my mobile, where we riding?

Edale- Mam Tor- Cavedale – Pindale? – Hope – Hope Cross – Beast then Edale again

fair enough, though i'm not fussed for Pindale, it doesn't really add much to a ride. and which layby? i'm confused. the one Sheffield side or the one Manchester side of edale?

The one at the very end of Jacobs Ladder- just before you emerge onto the road, over the bridge and onto Edale station.

Is there a official name for it? Ive always called it the "save£5layby"

Is it called Barber Booth?

Carry on driving (as if you are going to the steep climb upto Jacobs Ladder)- You will go under a Viaduct then…bingo.

gotcha, i know the one

WTF? Where is all this snow coming from?! 😕

FFS. Its still coming down. Right Im staying in Manchester. Cant leave the missus to struggle around whilst I enjoy myself.

its about 5 inch thick here, can only imagine it'll be twice as bad in the peak

I can't even get to bloody b and q!

Is the weather trying to tell me not to sell the Subaru?

well at least I don't have to share my cake now.

think I'll go back to bed and read a while then go to the pub for lunch

next Saturday anyone?

next Saturday anyone?

Weather dependent. I didnt even have a drink last night 🙁

I hope the weather does pick up, i've got every weekend in March free for riding

I'm at a wedding next saturday. 6th is my first available date

I'm thinking i might try somewhere a bit different, sherwood or something

Sherwoods too far for me. I cant drive through the lovely Peaks to get to there.

It would be like entering a glitzy party and pushing past Sandra Bullock to get to that streg Kate Moss.

i love the peak but i just fancy some woods for a change and Wharncliffe is too wet. i fancy checking out Stainburn too, might pop up and do that solo

sherwood's really bad at the mo, cut up really deep.
oh and they're felling trees in the first half of the kitchener anyway.
probably best to leave it a few weeks

I'm thinking i might try somewhere a bit different

there is Ton's STW Nidderdale ride next Sunday, promises to be good

cheers for the heads up on Sherwood.

cant do Sunday, picking the girlfriend up from Manc airport V late on Saturday

picking the girlfriend up from Manc airport V late on Saturday

Ah yes. I did wonder why she wants me to drop her off at the airport 8)

Ps. Don't ride with the Northern Chapter- they'll aerobicize you to death 😆

well its supposed to be snow all week so i think i'd better trade the bike in for some skis

Podge. I hope you are wrong. I need to ride.

anytime podge 🙂

hora – Podge. I hope you are wrong. I need to ride.

you think that's bad, i've had the car a week and it looks like I'll have to start getting up at 5 again for the train as no one can get on or off my hill, YAY 13 hour days again.

adey205 – anytime podge

anytime for what? i only just woke up, i'm confused.

the sherwood insight! Adey's a local.

I'm hoping to get out one nght this week maybe. Perhaps a bit of a late night adventure chaps? If it doesn't snow…

aye that i am.
rode out fri after work and it was bad then.
not too bad yesterday in the frost but soon got gloopy again
all this snow will make it even worse once it thaws..

ah, i though you were asking me for a specific time when it was going to snow.

midweek adventure sounds fun as long as i can get back home from work in time

no worries mate. my fault. should've been more specific

when i'm not asleep and its not snowing and Sherwood is on a good condition, i'll hit you up for a guided tour.

no prob. think my email's in my profile.
could be waiting a while though 😆
