Not me, Knight. I found out about it too late so I have some other engagement this weekend. I'm going to try and fit in my June 100 this Wednesday, because the next three weekend are taken up with:-
- a caving club dinner, after which I will be unable to walk
- our office's two day "strategy meeting" somewhere near Chesterfield. Oh Joy.
- ColinJ's Forest of Bowland outing. That is over the 100 and still in June, but half way through Year #4 the 29th is far too late in the month to risk getting struck by lightning/general debility/broken leg.
So it's off to Skipton first thing, then on the bike up to Kirkby Stephen via Fleet Moss and the Buttertubs and back via Mallerstang and Dentdale. Should be a good ride if the weather holds up.

no, I'm out with Andrew round hawes and garsdale to get the June 100 in.he wants to see what the hardest part of our clubs 150 mile ride is like and this just covers it.
Well, the weather did hold up - in fact it was a cracking day - but I had to unpack and fettle a bike for a friend first and by the time I had done that it was too late to set off. So a few hours jungle-hacking in the garden instead.piedwagtail91 said:

Still hanging in here, with a skin of the skin of my teeth job to Weymouth/ Portland on 31 May (not quite to the Bill as I was in danger of missing the last train back from Weymouth). Ride turned out to be a good decision as it was a lovely day and very pretty ride, especially after Shaftesbury. All sorts of roads I had never ridden before and a fair number of hills.
Btw Rob - have just seen your message: how rude!!

Get better soon Rob. Sounds like a nasty accident. Hope all goes well.
Now that really is terrible news, Rob. Granted, a broken shoulder is a lot better than a broken head, but it devalues the whole event if you aren't out there setting the targets for us.Rob S said:
Or - just pull yourself together, man! You still have four days to buy some sandals and a stick-on beard and go out on a recumbent. You could even whack some lightweight wheels on the bed, pull the screens round and you would be out and back before they had noticed you were missing...
