NWA: THREE TRIBES ~ Edale & Ladybower area - 01/05/10

[drystonepaul]

Don't worry it will be relaxed pace. National RB rides are all about being sociable, with a bit of riding thrown in for good measure.

I am however thinking about cycling the 20 miles from my house to the start point in Edale, so I'll be conserving energy once I get there.
I haven't worked out how to get back yet. It'd make it a 60 mile ride all in unless I get a train or a lift back.

Good training for Mr K's Moel Famau run in June

Yeah, I'm going for the EdEdwards hard man reputation but without the tight shorts and sartorial elegance.

I will be riding though, so I'll be there in spirit, have a great ride and may the sun shine on the NW crew!

The latest forecast is making this look unlikely. But then when has the weather forecast ever been right...?

 

[Easy_Rider]

Cheers Pete, sorry your not coming though

Yeah forecast not so good, hasn't stopped raining here since midday either. I'm praying to the retro gods though

Does that mean I can ride a modern bike then? Bloody retro junk

NO. NO. NO. Absolutely not.
As this ride was all your idea and you're in charge of the Yorkies you absolutely have to ride a retro machine.
If you choose to ride a modern bike then prepare to live with the scorn and ridicule that will stay with you forever.
We might even make you ride an On-One for the rest of your life as punishment.
