Had a really enjoyable time at the meal on tuesday. Wife loved the tash piccy!

Thought it might be nice to reflect on 2010 by posting up some photos here:

The more the better so get those phones connected to computers and download your dodgy pics!

Have a happy Christmas and New Year everyone and thank you for a year of great rides and great company!

As the Turkey twizzler at Cannock has been cancelled will any of you be riding in the Ticknall/Ashby/Charnwood area on Monday?
I know the forecast may not be good, just wondered if anyone was still planning to try and ride?

Yes to a Monday ride. Ed and I are definitely in, and I expect Mark and John will be as well. Not decided 'where' yet.

Geoff is keen as well. Would prefer a bit more local than Cannock if poss but happy (and very willing given the alternative) to be out aaalllll day.

John's in. Looking at a route round Charnwood.

Looks like you Midlanders may already have your own plans but I've posted up an alternative to the postponed Cannock ride here:

Not too far from some of you and you're more than welcome to join us.

All the best
Paul

Thanks.

Well we have that option - although weather may make it tricky equally to get there (not sure I fancy a journey like last year :shock: ).

Perhaps something more local as a fallback/alternative? What do folks think?

 

[rc200ti]

Thanks Paul, very attractive offer. I agree with Ed that the journey across from Ashbourne is traditionally more likely to be a problem than our route to Cannock.

Merry Christmas
