What sort of distance are we looking at tomorrow?

 

[rc200ti]

12ish with about 1050ft of climbing, which, with the exception of one longish but steady climb, is all middle ring.

 

[Legacy555]

Where are we meeting?

Or (very) big ring if you are Phil! Looking forward to this ride,havnt ridden any of it in spite of working only 3 miles from the start! On the tubeless puncture question i put a normal puncture patch inside my tyre and that sorted it.

 

[Legacy555]

Where?

***Right, Tuesday's night ride will be in Charnwood this week. Meet 7pm in the car park behind the Bull's Head in Thringstone.***

I suppose it sealed round the patch, nice idea! Mine has finally sealed but it's leaked a lot of latex out and took all night.

if only i'd known you were riding cademan, i have a route from my front door that takes in bardon hill to start with, followed by warren hills rocks then up by the whitwick quarry and into cademan woods. fun little 10ish mile loop.

although not much good to you at the min as i've been feeling dog rough for the last month and i'm still not right now.

there is alot of good trails through cademan and it's quite easy to get lost, i've been riding through there since i was a wee nipper and i've still got lost on occasion.

i would join you but the only bike i have in 1 peice at the min is the enduro and i've no idea whether or not i've fixed the skipping chain on it.
