Thpring on the Thnake

......To celebrate the arrival of spring (hopefully) how's about Manchester-Sheffield-Manchester, via the Snake, stop off in Endcliffe park and have a brew with Mr. York and whoever, ride back to Manc via Bamford and ladybower. Me n Longers did it a couple of years ago, 85 mileish in 6ish hours, although I did flake on the 2nd ascent of the Pass. Nice ride if you've got the weather, I was thinking early April.


Any Takers? Suggestions?

Sounds good. Would have thought any time after middle of February would be all right. Sunset is a about an hour and a half later than at the moment. In early April it sets even later about quarter to eight.

<pencil> Yes please </pencil>

The twisty bits worry me for group riding from a motorists point of view but the rest of it should be good and they can just be patient for a while. Cake in the park again?

Some bits of the A57 are now more pleasant since they've had a play around the last 18 months.
