After what you've said about those rides, I am surprised!
No, not these rides, only Bike Events rip-offs bother me. My mate organises this one and it's very good.

Well well well, you have a husband.
I should have expected you to get that completely the wrong round!

I could probably do with a few hills in my legs so I might be up for this one. Won't know until Saturday though probably.

Okay, I've added you to the Maybes list.
The forecast is looking good and if we feel like adding a few miles on, there will be several alternatives towards the end of the ride.

where we going?
I'm working until 4pm this Sunday, dissappointing after not being able to join the Settle ride last week and tick off Fleet Moss in my 100 climbs book. (I did get out and had my own unwelcome but heart warming adventure, see Here )
I'd still be interested in the route though, see if there's anywhere I've not been yet!

It's a Colinj mystery tour bfb, you just turn up and pipe down
I'm 99% going to be there now
Not done any kind of long ride since May 2nd Waddington ride, but have ridden over 600 miles since then.

Bikely seems to be running again and quite snappily at that, so perhaps they have done their system upgrade early? Anyway, I have uploaded my route - here. It is based on The Forum Ride That Never Was from last year but coming back via Widdop instead of via Oxenhope. (It's an easier finish, once the killer hill at Thursden is out of the way.)
Route: Hebden Bridge, Oxenhope, Leeming, Cullingworth, Harden, Bingley, Micklethwaite, East/West Morton, Brunthwaite, Cringles, Kildwick, Farnhill, Cononley (PO shop there for refreshments if required), Lothersdale, Black Lane Ends (Food stop - the same pub we stopped at in March, but it should be warm outside this time!), Laneshaw Bridge, Trawden, Clarion House, Coldwell (others tackling this route another time might prefer a stop at the Activity Centre cafe), b*stard climb at Thursden, fun run back via Widdop and wicked descent from Slack down through the woods to Hebden Bridge.
Ha - I'd be surprised if I'm on 600 miles for the year yet!I'm 99% going to be there now

Come on folks, the forecast for Sunday is great - warm and sunny, but not stupidly hot; cooling breeze, but no strong winds; DRY!
