Is there a link to the last ride?

That would be perfect for me :) ill keep my eyes peeled for a thread

Wanted to come again this week but still had a sore wrist from a tumble week before! Where is next week?

Saddle & hose colour not to my tastes either but that matters little when out enjoying it! Have fun :)

Did a similar trip from Liverpool last week :)

Dont waste time at gisburn, you can go there anytime!

Day 1 – driving up from Liverpool, riding Mabie on the way
Day 2 – Kirroughtree (large section shut for logging still)
Day 3 – Glentress Red & Inners Red (Big Day)
Day 4 – Dalbeattie

Id say that be a better bet all things considered! Kirroughtree closures mean its not that physical of a ride at the moment, Pace your selves & enjoy something new each day

I got one at either Dalbeattie / Kirroughtree / Mabie last weekend, very small but had a firm bite of my inside thigh!

would i be mad not to buy these pikes?

Or he would go home, tell nobody & continue to shop online…

Charging is fair although £6 for 5 mins seems steep compared to my lbs rates.

Last week had a new valve supplied & fitted to my car for less £5 :)

Had one a couple of weeks ago, except it actually cost £2 8O

458 Italia

Nibali form is making the absence of Froome & Contador an even bigger loss, what a spectacle it could have been.

That looks like hard going…

Thanks for the advice guys, most appreciated, any more input more than welcome!! :D

Good ride last night, thanks for having me along! Hope to make it again sometime soon :)

I’ll meet you in the car park then :)

Look out for a car with a blue cotic Solaris on the back!

Hmmm sat on couch thinking I could make this, can you handle two out of towners?

How steeps the climbs? Only got the 1×10 29er & tired legs :roll:

Recently switched to 29×2.25 Maxxis Ardents (from racing Ralph’s) and have to say I’m very impressed with them, goog grip, good rolling & strong sidewalls, I would recommend!

wool behaviour that la

Great advice above, who are you with? wife? kids? lads?

Note: The Phil Theatre / Hall is currently getting a refurb.

Ive read all the reviews about the Osprey packs & tried a friends Viper, they seem very nice, has anyone got or tried a Camelback Volt / Charge with the lower / wider bladder? Several publications have given it favourable reviews? any independent users?

Similar to Whinlatter blue, bit longer, more gradient & a bit better. Easy to add onto the end of Black after a brew!

who is that?

as above he ditched his Cotic Solaris for one & seems happy, check solaris threads for his thoughts!

Ok, imagine doing any sport in hot conditions as hard as you can for an hour? Tell me a sport where you wouldn’t start to tire?

Spin, do you know much about football?

Thats ok yeah?

What? Im just clarifying what games he will miss

Isn’t there a rumour knocking around about him being sacked from LFC?

Sack a £75m asset? you pissed? :wink:

Seriously though; with all the corruption in world football, peoples killed during construction of stadia (due to poor working conditons and negligible concern for workers’ safety) not to mention the enormous waste of money in a country where health care and education are desperately starved of resources, does it really matter that one overpaididiot bit anotheroverpaid idiot?

Have you done anything to help the people of Brazil?

If it stays at 4 months he will miss approx 9 LFC league games, approx 3 Champions League & Maybe a cup game. :|

I currently have this set up on my Orange 5, HR II 2.3 front & Ardent eco 2.25 rear. I’ve arrived here from x2 HR II 2.4 so its noticeably lighter & rolls a lot quicker than previous. Ive has no such issue with rear grip when climbing yet, I would recommend 8)

If you looking at golfs, any reason you havent cosidered a 1 series? 123d / 125/130i price range :)

Cameroon 0 – Brazil 2
Croatia 2 – Mexico 2

Australia 0 – Spain 3
Netherlands 2 – Chile 1

Currently Saving up for a Dropper, Probably a KS Lev :)

Also might drop the stem & bars down or switch to flat bars to lower front end.

I would say if I was building again Id consider 100mm forks for the type of riding I use it for.

Edits: im 6’1 with 34″ inside leg.

What is unfair is that i read this dull as dish water moan about nothing.

Great unless you want to drive somewhere in the snow and ice.

Not really a concern on Merseyside so i didnt think of that :)

What you really need to think is what does the car say about you i.e.

Golf R = Tosser
Audi A6 = Granddad

If anything that view point is one of a Tosser 8)

30k you say, 328i/330d Touring would be my choice if new / nearly new

I rode on Saturday & there are signs up about the forthcoming road closure saying the footpaths will not have access to Georges.

Make me believe there will be no access for walkers etc :|

San Marino is the decent from the top of winter hill down towards Belmont. It’s the best decent in the area so you should give it a go :)

Im sure you have come across the x2 main Caravan Parks in Formby, Have you checked if you can pitch a tent there?

Being from Crosby (down the road from Formby) & having spent a lot of time in Formby I can confirm its a great place for a day visit, not sure about a whole weekend. Also I don’t really know of much camping in the area, we dont get much of that round our way!

Also your 45-60 mins from Liverpool Airport, North Wales, Cheshire etc are equally as close.

If its deffo Formby I’ll get ‘Adrec’ to tell you the best drinking & eating establishments.

Also formby is only a short train journey from SOuthport or Liverpool if you do base yourself there!

At least you have the weather!
