Strines ride (just outside Peaks) Sheffield

[Aperitif]

fossy has 'piston legs' rich, and they are 'covered in gorilla hair' which may explain the warmth factor!
I'm with longers on this one - 'be prepared'...then get it wrong!

ps.

I'm not 'ard.

That's 'cause there's nowt to you. Get some more pies in ya...

 

[MacB]

well, I think I may go with 3/4 shorts, base layer and LS jersey, can always ditch the base layer if need be.

I think you'll be all right. If we were doing a sun chaser ride I can imagine people getting a bit chilly.

Ach, it's lovely up here.

If you need your cockles warming, invest in one of these.

Blimey! Don't tell fossyant otherwise he'll be "pi$$ed on bike - not legs"

(Very good BTW rich - made me smile when I was idly thinking this morning...)

Oi rich p - the Peaks boys are 'ard..... worry about the Southern boys... just right up here at the moment.....great bike temps.......

PS All have a good ride, Saturdays are no good for me.... but get the gears sorted.....

Marinyork may have been economical on the gradients...... in places - they don't show up on GPS very well, or mapping.....?????

I'm sure that all will be well. We southerners may lack your ruffty tuffty northern ways, but, as one's manucurist said only the other day, provided one's spare tubes are well-talced, and the wayside bistros sufficiently provided with decent claret, there's nothing to fear...........

We tend to have portacabins or old caravans selling mugs of tea up here...

Fixed tha' for you mikee!

Weather: Fab Outlook: Fab Company: Well... Anticipation: Good - just got to sort the SS CycleChat out now prior to setting sail.

Still one more place available on the Anti-Hesperus, the hip ship of fools, voyaging to the nether regions.

Look forward to seeing you all about 2pm tomorrow...

Can you definitely not come along Davy. Look I got some pics off my phone for you. Two of them are a bit low quality as they are shortly before sunset.

Sorry.....

As of right now, still, its a no... unless, we have an ETA back home and I can possibly delay till then for the pick up of my speakers?

Great pics, thanks! However, I got a bit of vertigo at the heights involved!

yep ETA for home is, when we get there, more precise information will be available when we're about 5 miles from London

Davy, what is more important?
Living for the moment and experiencing acute bonhomie with folk who will relentlessly take the pi$$ out of you, or, (fast forwarding to your proposed holiday in Thailand) waking up to find that Samantha is indeed Samuel, and was not at all phased at the sight of your exposed (relaxed) thigh measurement? (And your wallet will get knicked too!)

You know what you would prefer...

Quite.

 

[Davywalnuts]

hahaha!

I know what I would prefer!!

But, well... things like this happen!

I suppose at least you wont be following the "Garminator" route home this time so no lenghty detours of surrounding Counties...
