I’m with you on that one vix!! From the peeps I’ve met so far we aint gonna go wrong…. They’ve been absolutely lovely!! I’m getting very excited!….(keep comments lady like please) 😉

God i’m feeling for you. 18 months for me (and still cry evey bloody night). 14 years?? huge, big, massive hugs. No expert i’m affraid but i wish my ex had talked more……leaving me alone confirmed he did’t want me or anything to do with me. You know your ex better than anyone i suppose though…

Still HUGE hugs coming your way….

Life is too important! Look what i’ve taken up since….YAY! (already need new break pads… 😈

Solarpowered – Red socks = ramblers

Ah lovely! I believe we just ‘run over’ them yeah? 😉

Maybe not along Rushup edge – t’was proper ‘peat bog monster’ grabbing front wheel along the top. However the rocky sucken road was fantastic, even when covered in red socks.

Just got nervous… 😐 Are red socks code for something evil and scarey!?

Vid fantastic! Just what i would imagine after growing up in Scotland! Can’t wait for Pootle!!!!!! 😀

I’m choosing from the Hora route guide.

Quite obviously new to this mr P. Believe you need to be careful of said weirdo (Hora)…..Just make sure you’re on my left side….i have pepper spray in my left wepon holder!!!!! 😆

Route TWO sounds fine…… yeah! Two! Route 3 looks C***! 🙄

So, what is the route?

THREE if i’ve got owt to do bout it!
(hope you know i’m joking :DMr Pook!)

p.s. Where did Mrs Plumber go? Can do a jaunt with her if up for it. Have been given a map of prestwich/bury/ramsbottom (easy), about 16miles. Would love to do that on a week-end if she’s free? Can bring cake…….

I’m going to drop one.

PLEASE DON’T!!!! the route 3 will do…….

I’m in if delivery before 9:30….(doubtful!) 😕

i will have two as I quite like the only even prime

I can see this going the way of the pear for me…. 😐

[/quote]I’d make a long weekend of it if you can and enjoy the ride.

Good plan! Make a holiday of it and you can take things as slow or as fast as you like.

I did cornwall to Aberdeen on a 250 (yeah, yeah, in my younger days!) it was fabulous! And did it over 2-2.5 days. Just wonderful!

I’ll do it for you for free ! 😀 have friends in Essex and Aberdeen!
No really, i’m sure you get bike courier services don’t you? pretty expensive i would imagine tho!But at least all insurance etc is sorted. Good on ya for getting yay lubbly jubbly machine! 😀

The secret is to educate the owner… Worm your pets regularly with a veterinary wormer!

All THREE! All THREE!! Yeah! that sounds good…. If you have to chose just one i would:
Get THREE people to toss THREE coins then get THREE other people to decide on which THREE routes to take. Then i’d chose the THIRD one!

…..yeah, that sounds about right…

oh and 4..

😯

6

What do you mean ‘6’? Where’s the fun in thatnumber? Gotta be 3! Gotta, gotta, gotta!…. 😆

Saturday is the 7th and would deffo come along (seeing as the pace is SLOW) but having to wait in for a delivery. 🙁 Out for bike ride on the 8th am afraid too. Will be up for it next time though for sure! 😀

3

(solar, don’t worry, it’s a bit of tongue in cheek silliness, no one knows what the route it yet. I’m sure Chis will deliver a pearler).

ooooohh…. how exciting!!!!

What are your concerns? It’ll be fab i’m sure wherever we go! 😀

you can do it……if you WANT to!! 😀

Yep! I’m a woman and i can see the ‘funny shape’ WEIRD!

this got something to do with the fall at hebdon today? I quite honestly have no idea but i would say whatever you were doing…..do the opposite???? Just a suggestion…..

😉

oh so many pictures and absolutely no idea how to post them! Embarrasing

Bannanas to you all!

Now I’m drinking wine and messing about on the internet.

got any more? me run out 🙄

I’m not a lover of tats but respect peoples views. Can’t help, however, think that if someone (others know you better than i) is asking for advice re getting one or not. Then there is ‘doubt’. In my book …..if there is any doubt then dont do it at the mo. If you’re going to get a tattoo, it needs to be something you have NO DOUBT ABOUT WHATSOEVER!

i see red….. maybe pink…. it’ll all look good on ya i’m sure! (ONLY JOKING OF COURSE!)

How come men always assume women only cry during a certain time of the month? Some of us cry all the time! I’m a bit of an emotional person though so when I feel the need to cry it often just comes out. I’m not fussy where I cry

You just let it out hun! those that cant handle it aren’t worth it. People just don’t understand that having a cry is like a thunderstorm – all clears after it!

I’ve had a hellish week-end working ( am not crying) but want to say THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE!!!!
Am with you all the way …… (p.s. positive thinking sometimes drags you out of that corner???? And you-tubing mountainbiking stuff of course! 😀

Darn! Working 😡

Hora looks harmless!!! Best still take the pepper spray though zesty7 😉

Yay! Cumon Vic! 😀

^^^^ i concur! (when eaten on it’s own) However, tis lubbly jubbly with peanut butter! PROMISE!!!

Havnt read the whole thread but have seen this ‘copper role’ on bettaware mags – believe it to be a bit cheaper if you know anyone that does bettaware?

It’s for a good cause

Yay! Bananas AND nuts…… that could be compared to celery with peanut butter – anyone tried that one? Yummy yummy! (sounds dreadful but is absolutely scrumptious!)

sniff sniff. . . . where do THEY live?

Gonna move! Grrrrr….

Wonderfully inspirational and very clever 🙂

eats, sleeps, drinks, eats, walks over, drives over, vomits and breathes OIL! Be warned, v expensive (Brother-in-law had one…..) 😐

Hi ya Vic!

I’m new too! Have to say what a giggle you’ll have on this site (as long as you can laugh at yourself of course…!) Pooks pootles on the 14th july????? will we see you there? Have a spare rm if you need accommodation nearby (i’m in manchester) 🙂

The peeps i’ve met so far have been ab fab, loveleeeeees!!!!!

Hope you had a good ride?! 😀

^^^^^ yummy yummy

Who needs a tampon for ‘allsorts’ when he’s there? …

Know exactly what you mean! Think the rain has deffo helped. Went out after work for a blast and trails were way overgrown.
Flies in every orrifice (now, now peeps…) and scratches, stings all over my legs and arms – ‘trail fairy’ time tomorrow if time! 😉
