Re: Re:

Suspension this, suspension that....soft gets.


Come on, i'm logged on and need some pics! I expect there was some great riding. The weather was largely kind leading upto the weekend but then friday evening it tinkled down probably softening some sections up for yous.

I couldn't get up in the end, nobody coming my way. Ah well, there's next year.

cheers.

I rode rigid. So leave me out of it ;-)

Re:

Great weekend riding int moors. The drive up turned into a nightmare, crash on the M1 5 minutes into my journey, rush hour traffic in Leeds picking up the awning poles from Matthews. Got to the hole of Horcum, the road was shut (wagon had gone for a detour) looked nasty, so a detour round moors meant I arrived at 9pm. So we set up camp due to the rain we sat in my bus drinking beer with Matthew, Elpedro and kiren, we watched some idiot in a onesie run round the campsite making a fool of him self, hanging of the farm pick up while it was being driven around the campsite.

Saturday we woke to warm, eventually sunny weather with the odd shower




Camping ken




The Saturday ride was only 12 miles wasn't it Vern?

Nice stop in the cafe, we found some toy's for Trebz, butt plug Sir, suits you Sir

Re:

A big thank you to all you guys up north for your hospitality, banter, laughs and great trails!

Also thanks to the organisers and route guides, a very well planned out route with great support which made for a glitch free day.....apart from the odd miss hap from old kit here and there.

It's the first time I've been for a ride around the moors and enjoyed every minute of it, views were fantastic, trails were ace and weather was spot on.

Was good to meet you all and share a great day riding out on the moors, thanks again and hopefully see you guys at the peaks
