Hopefully it will have dried out a bit from last weekend... was a bit squelchy in places ;)


Usual single track with the odd bit of fireroad and I've strung together a decent loop for after the bacon so that should get the mileage up after a couple of recent shortish rides :thumbup:

We ride for about 3-4 hrs and cover 15 to 20 miles depending on the route. Pace is moderate with a bacon stop about halfway through :thumbup:

10:00am at Bury Rd car park. http://goo.gl/maps/BFzFT

The car park linked looks a bit different now as it's in two halves now... rough part and a tarmac part. Either part is fine as you can see one from the other.

If you're running late and miss the start you may be join us at the bacon stop here - https://goo.gl/maps/z3ni5 We usually stop at the cafe next to the Kngs Head at about 12:00, although be warned we don't always stop there and the time can vary ;)



I'll be in a blue VW Transporter

All welcome :)

Good to know... I've just swapped the Mountain King on the back for a X King and was wondering if I was going to regret it :)

Hi Joe... fairly varied ages but no one quite as young as 15.

Tolga who rides with us is 17 but hasn't been along for a few weeks. I think as school is back he's probably tired and having to spend a lot of time lying down ;)
