[dan_bo]

Not many NW rides this year is there? Col and foss have understandably been temporarily sidetracked/lined.....

Manchester-glossop-sheffield-hope-back to manc (via snake). Scoff in sheffield. Not too much hanging about but the usual noone gets left behind. Late may- early june. Who's playing out?

Will take too long to get to sheffield and back for a boggo forum ride. IMO of course.

So, not for me.

Last time we did it it was probs 7 hours with a scran.

With fastish riders no doubt.

Generally interested but that's a bit OTT for me. Sorry.

 

[Hacienda71]

I'll do it, subject to dates and the weather. Would be rude not to after last time :-)

WhatHac is referring to was my regrettably only taking one spare tube and flatting (also I had two rim depths and the wrong length valve...), it was also a bit wet. We sacked it after I eventually sorted the tyre and went home. Won't happen again. Honest.

Crimmey, fossy and (think) Longers. And me bringing up the rear by the time we hit the snake the second time. I was shagged.wanna get back to somewhere near being fit after a long winter with two $hit handsso...

I would be more comfortable in the company of fattish riders.
