Sunday Rides in the Malvern area..

[bonk man]

2-3 hour rides based on the hills but usually venturing on some lesser used tracks and lanes in the area.
Anyone welcome, not training rides but your fitness should be enough to be out a few hours without crying ..

Meets at Barnards Green bus shelter [ big one with the clock on it ] at 10 am.

How technical are the routes, Steve?

 

[bonk man]

I use a cross bike so tend to avoid big drop offs and really rough stuff but still take on single track and steep climbs.

I try and include a variety of tracks, last week it was lanes, farm tracks, extreme mud, field crossings and a fair section of dryish tracks on the hills all in 2.5 hours riding.

I run a night ride on Thursday that tends to have tricky bits in it, but I am not too proud to carry my bike

 

[Dave5N]

That's why I asked - I don't have a mountain bike.

Sunday morning's are difficult if I'm coaching but I would like to come across one week if I can.

 

[Speicher]

I am not bicycling at present. (Too long and complicated to explain why) but if you "cake stop" in Barnard's Green at the end, I could meet you there. There are or were about six forummers in the area.

 

[Dave5N]

COuldn't persuade you to bring the bike as well?

 

[Speicher]

No, I'm sorry you couldn't. It's a long story.

But it would be nice to meet some forummers.

 

[Dave5N]

I'll try and get over one Sunday. I may have some wriggle room between the end of the 'cross and the start of the track. There's usually about seven free weeks.

 

[Dave5N]

I'm thinking about HONC again and lord knows i need some practice first.

 

[bonk man]

I am sure I can find some hideous mud and nasty climbs for you Dave..

Speicher..... you are welcome to come round to mine for tea and toast after the rides but can't guarantee what time we get back , I live in the Green though, down in Pound Bank Rd, I wont give the house number on the forum just in case everyone comes round at once.. it would upset the dog

 

[Speicher]

Bonk man, I hope you have read your pm.

It's ok lovebirds. I'll sit in the car afterwards and eat pies on my own.

 

[bonk man]

Favourite food of twentysix by twentyfive is pies I am told..
