Doh

Seems like a weekend of poor communication
I didnt see anyone doing anything so did a 45 mile roadride out towards Grantham then back into Nottingham city centre then into long eaton and back to derby
pity would have joined someone instead :roll:

Same for me. Woke up / wasn't raining / Carol was running at 8.00 / knees felt OK / went for a ride.

re little wheels, I have just put a 48t chain ring on rocky so the Centrifugal force on her wheel should prevent anything sticking to them.

all being well I shall be out on tuesday

 

[orange71]

brilliant

I won't be out Tuesday I'm afraid. Busy week at work.

Mat you need to be out I have to get you back for pushing me into all those nettles, I was tingling all day.

tonight

Ticknall ?
I shall bring along a Russian frient called Artur
he loves cycling and is a competent kick boxer so should have the stamina
just probably not great at the technical stuff
I am going to lend him one of my hardtail Treks so he will be suitably equipped

 

[rc200ti]

Ticknall it is.

As long as he takes things Steppe by Steppe..... :roll:
