Old Ned
Old School Grand Master
There's a new kid on the block (or rather the road )on August 14th around the Peak District.
Details can be found on the organiser's website -

One of the organising team is an old friend of Retrobike, one Patrick Adams of Mountain Mayhem fame, so we can be sure of a slick and competently run event. The route looks 'interesting' (Pat says 'challenging') but there will be a good amount of relatively flat trails etc. to make up for the uphill bits! Oh, and if the distance puts you off, there are plenty of get-you-home shortcuts!
To me the event looks to be excellent value with food etc. before, during and after being included along with possibly a frame number plate and a memento.
Get your entries in now as for this, the first year, places will be limited!
Now, where did I put that 28t sprocket and the 38t chainring................ :roll:
