CC Manchester/Cheshire Spring ride? (Fixed or otherwise)

[longers]

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.

I'll try and get along. March sometime?

A Sunday would be good for me, working saturdays at the moment.

As long as its not more than 40 miles I'll come along (having problems with distance at the moment).

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.

Oops..just seen the other thread - rideable on Fixed...right, going round Potts Shrigley is out. Similar route to last time ???????

The Wizard on Fixed.....it's do-able ,just, on a 74"...bit like riding up a 1 in 4 for a half a mile......

I'll get me mapping head on this evening...

 

[RedBike]

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'.

 

[RedBike]

Saturday please.

This is what we did on road bikes.....with the wizard last May...

Novembers ride did a slight detour round Alderley.

I'll plot a lumpy route too, but not with one of the steep climbs near the Lyme Park entrance near Potts Shrigley....

 

[fossyant]

Potential Route - 30 miles to cafe, then 20 back
