Strines ride (just outside Peaks) Sheffield

[mike e]

for the northern lot yeh I hope?

for us Southeners, just shorts n top and a pint of Guiness?

PS, What time if any do we have of an ETA home? Just incase I fancy going out after?

What you want Davy is a night out in Sheff, I'm sure you (and your legs) would go down a treat...

Ha! Not in a long while, it's Corporation now!

Are you coming on this ride Landslide? C'mon - it will be just like London - with grass.

Other plans I'm afraid.

Did you trap it in something Davy?

 

[Aperitif]

Here's what I'm thinking of doing:

Drive by shooting Davy's and wake him load him and bike. Possibly you would want to drive up to Davy's and park up there etc as well - or is CJ by train better for time / relaxing?
Matt is ok with CJ - which leaves Dave. OK at CJ staff photographer? Otherwise I'll drive further along the 'London coastline' and collect you...
From there it will be straight up the A5 and hit the M1 at Staples Corner.
3 hours later you will be presented with steaming mugs of tea and dripping sandwiches by your Northern hosts... (Me? I'll be 'parking oop' somewhere...)
06:30 at the Junction - ish is a time I have in mind.
The real advantage of the van is that getting lost is relatively painless.

ok - thanks to my ma-in-law having been in a boat off Iceland last weekend, the Babe will be visiting her this weekend.

have I got this right? 26th September, about 47 miles, start at 11.00? The van stuff has me puzzled.

Simon, the van is to transport the London posse oop north (Sheffield), when it's the other way round us northerner's tend to ride to the start of a ride...
