Roadrash's Zaskar warming Cyclechat Llandegla bash. Sat Oct 15th 2016

[fossyant]

Looking forward to it, trying to get some miles in. Got new swiss stops for the old bike, but I'll be on the new one I think.

I should be ok for this. I will be on my rather battered stumpy. It is 12 years old so almost vintage!

 

[I like Skol]

Glad to hear it. Better pump up the tyres on my old timer and give it a test run ready for the action.

 

[fossyant]

Your stumpy is newer than my Diamond Back with canti's. I'll be on the new one I reccon as I'll need to stop before I die, and I ain't jumping nowt on a fully rigid MTB with my poor skills. I haven't ridden Deggers, but have done Clayton Vale with Skolly !! Just bought swiss stops for the old bike as it really can't stop having used the new bike with Guide RS brakes !!!

Llandegla is good fun There are bail out options on all the bigger features on the black and red so you can bypass them if you don't feel up for it. Perfect for @potsy

And me.
I'm old, slow, fat and cowardly...... should fit right in.

Nearly time for this and if the weather holds it will be a lovely day out.

@fossyant don't you need to get your TUE application in for due consideration before the day? I imagine you will be taking some pretty strong shoot for this ride and we need to decide if this is going to give you an unfair advantage
Just to get things kicked of, I might want to take a paracetamol if I have a headache. Will I still be allowed to ride?

@si_c are you joining us?

 

[fossyant]

I'll be taking liquid pain killers that evening. Of the pints of ale veriety.

Looking forward to it.

It's unlikely Mrs C has plans for that weekend that include me so it's unlikely I'll get a pass out.

 

[Hacienda71]

Any idea on times yet? Need to be back by early to mid afternoon.
Also if anyone wants a lift from Wilmslow I can put a couple of extra bikes on the car.

Still planning to get there in time for some grub before a 10am kick-off. I will ring them up and check what the cafe opening times are.

 

[fossyant]

10am kick off on the trails are good. I'll set off about 8 to get there about 9.15

You can't do CX at the weekend it isn't raining, you need proper mud to be plugging around in to do CX.

Shame it wasn't last week when I was there. Enjoy your ride!
