Anyone fancy something similar to what you did last time? I do.

Sort out a date and route amongst yourselves and I'll try and tag along.

Something gentle, maybe? I've not done a long ride since the old king died, not with the Snowpocalypse and all.

Fossy's already mentioned the next one including 'the wizard:-?' think he said after the cat ride?

What's all this....

Any preferences then folks.......Flat, Lumpy, Hilly....

Stockport Station again for a start. Do you want flat with the wizard, or a few bumps (Higher Poynton area) then flat - cafe stop - might have to be the caravan place on the A50, or the Garden Centre further North.

There is one in Potts Shrigley, but it's too early in the ride, and one in Rainow, but the hills upto that will put some folk off.

I'm in.

I'm fine going up most of the hills fixed wheel around Pott Shigley but coming down most of them is 'intresting'.
