    Cannock for me on Sunday I reckon, it is Father’s day after all 😉 perhaps local tonight if the wife’ll let me.
    What have you lot got planned? I’m aware there’s some sort of mayhem thing going on! good luck and happy trails, keep it between the ditches 😀

    I’m guessing that’s some kinda euphemism, right? 😉

    I’m hoping to squeeze in a quick 100km on the road whilst waiting for my wife to give birth. I’ll loop back in and see her in the middle.

    Best of luck colin (not to you, Mrs Colin).

    Hope to get the child seat on the single speed and take the boy some where.

    Cannock after work this evening, road ride Saturday evening, Sunday MTB but unsure where just yet, may depend on whether my bearings have been replaced or not.

    About the best I’ll manage with the broken jaw is maybe an 8 mile total out and back road pootle on the old Kona HT to Bakewell on Sunday to have a mooch round Eroica

    Join the Sustrans route 4 locally and see how far I can get. Not sure how clear the route is marked mind. Bad weather means the canal should be quiet.

    30 miles tomorrow on the road with a couple of non-cycling mates I think. Then, hangover pending 60 more with the wife Sunday. May head out tonight too, weather pending.

    The path leading from Conistone over Dib Scar and along to the top end of Grassington -https://ridewithgps.com/routes/12996911

    From memory there’s a stile above Dib Scar not a gate!

    Avoiding the OH’s irritating teenage nephew and not so irritating niece who we’re babysitting by going out for a quick ride of my usual loop, then repeating the loop until my legs fall off and/or lights die.

    Booze will be left in the house to make sure I’m not missed or to get me through the rest of the evening.

    I’m pretty sure you’re right. Might be more than one, actually.

    If the MTB looks clean after last nights ride, prob an hour in the garage on the rollers later.

    Should be able to get out for a local blast tomorrow morning round the Forest before home duties require being done. But that’ be decided for me by the Mrs

    Sunday, dunno yet. That will be decided by the weather, maybe The Lakes, Wales or Dark Peak

    Nothing for me this weekend, new bike still isn’t ready to go and weather isn’t good enough for me to bother sorting it.

    160 miles commuting this week, had today off the bike because I was too hungover from watching the football yesterday and couldn’t face it.

    Don’t cross that one! You’ll get lost in the deep dark wood! There’s an ancient burial ground in there, you know.

    Mayhem for me. Solo….ideally 20 laps but more than 15 is a must. Sat in the baking sun at Gatconbe at the mo. Who’d have thought it.

    I’m also doing the 3 dales challenge for Sue Rider. 38.5 miler.

    Looks good, weather starting to get better so hopefully won’t be a bog in places.

    LittleMissMC is chuntering to go and ride at Hicks Lodge tomorrow, but none of the little friends she wants to show off to take along can make it. Hopefully I will persuade her to go anyway, or maybe just a local cafe pootle.

    I have a pass for Sunday morning, thinking of trying my first club ride for a year as they now do a slow group as well as the fast guys. Or I might trundle up to L’Eroica for some hipster spotting.

    Things have been fairly dry of late but I got absolutely soaked riding home this evening. Tomorrow is meant to be dry and most of the trails are reasonably weather proof.

    Did 84k along the SDW yesterday, today 112k to catch it back where I left it and rode back home. Paddle boarded in a huge thunderstorm about an hour ago.

    Tomorrow will be another 130k’sh wide loop of the Hampshire Downs, Sunday I’ll give it a rest and do some paddle boarding.

    If anyones interested there is a big Kitesurfing competition on at Hayling Island. They hope to break a world record by having 450 kiteeee’s out on the water at the same time.

    My first mayhem as part of a ten man team. All with retro bikes but most will bring something modern as well. Nothing serious but should manage 3 laps each if we push it. To be honest I haven’t ridden for a month since suffering shingles and losing all energy so not sure how I’ll fair.

    Cannock today, keeping up with my once a month riding be only 6th time out this year 😯 which means every hill will be like an epic mountain climb no doubt!. With the same elation when the summit is reached…….. 🙂

    Road ride tomorrow, 4-5 hours but reasonably flat for around here (probably 500-800m of up in that time)
