Hi Chris,
It looks like Mat may be mended sufficiently to chaperone us round. With Mayhem at the end of the month which dates do you fancy. It might be better if you pm unocogero to sort things .

Oi I heard that Matthew

Or should I say "I resemble that remark"

Tuesday ride is on as usual but watch this space as it may be Smisby ?
Think a Saturday ride in the peaks may also be on

I think it is as i am going on Saturday but just trying to confirm it is a definite from John & Rob.

This is me in the Peaks last Sunday - Road bike though not MTB

you are SO moneysupermarket

Can't do Saturday I'm afraid as I need to spend some time with SHMBO, particularly with a Mayhem coming up.
Smisby on Tuesday is a good idea.
Now don't you all go getting repetitive wrist injury....waving those flags

Even managed to get the Dura Ace decals lined up on the front and rear wheels for the photo

Steve it was Epic, my first cycle round the Peaks did not disappoint at all. I did the 65 mile route which had 7k feet of climbing but the hot weather started to take it's toll later on in the ride, i would rather this though than the rain.

We went over Cat & Fiddle, through Winnats and through Goyt valley to name just a few of the 'attractions'

Ok I am out clicked my back leaning over in the garage
Bikes not 100 % and neither am I plus the fact that nobody seems to
Be organising anything
