Regard my idea as a filler, not a replacement for organised rides.Personally not keen on the Global Fat bike Day model as its basically just going for a ride on your tod for a reason. Doing a solo ride is what we do of our own volition anyway.
I think we should just make the effort to get together when we can and I think a trip up north to Brian and Jamie's neck of the woods should be considered. The ride to the Garve chip van and back was a goody
