An evening in the Shropshire hils

[Scattamah]

I'll be in my tent as per usual. The bivvy spot is in amongst some trees with cover from the south/south-west. But it could get blowy up there.

Yeap looks wet n windy ill be in the laser comp too

[Scattamah]

Heh...the weather forecast just keeps getting better. The Norwegians are predicting we'll need canoes and not bikes for most of Saturday. > 1.5mm for 2 hours in the middle of the day so far. I've a feeling the route will get shortened at this rate...but I'm staying positive and hoping it doesn't get too slushy. The Toboggan might be interesting if it's really wet. Off to the LBS tomorrow arvo for work on my girl (big thanks to Taylor for the BB91).

I would consider frequent shelter. We could aim the The Bridges, then back over the Long Mynd to the Ragleth, and mop up any stray pubs on the way.....

I am prepared for any weather though!

[custardfeet]

Love to come up and ride with you, sadly a bit too far for me and the bike is currently in bits, have fun.

[Mike]

Let's just suck n see what happens. The cars arent that far away if things are too grim and not enjoyable after all

[Zippy]

We're thinking something similar. If anyone wants to find us, we'll be at the bunk house in Corris.

[Scattamah]

I'm sure it'll be alright on the day. I'm double bagging my sleeping bag and sleep clothes! Other than that it'll be std issue gear. At least there's no fords this weekend :)

Looking like another no show from me I'm afraid. I'm still struggling with my car, back in the garage again.

Anyone would think its a poor weather forecast putting me off ;-)

Have a great ride guy. Hopefully catch you on the trails soon.

[Scattamah]

It's the beard, isn't it Mike? *grins* Sorry to hear about the car woes...but a great reminder as to why I choose to bike. Here's hoping you get it sorted soon and life returns to normal for ya.

is kick off 9.30. or 10

[Mike]

Aim for 930 Paul I'd imagine if it's as bad as the forcast says there will be no rush to get going

[Chew]

The weather this week and the forecast for Saturday (plus the drive) has put me off.

Have fun and hope you don't get too wet

[Scattamah]

Ta for the headsup Chew. Pressure's off for me to tidy up the pit here :)

Weather looks ok in the morning...it's just the arvo that looks like it will get a bit wooly. Let's hope the Weather Dogs look favourably upon us.

I will still be coming over despite the weather looking slightly sub optimal! I'm sure we can make the best of it.

[Mike]

Right iv made my mind up on this guys. The weather just looks far to shocking to enjoy riding in it for the day then camping out. I will put it on again next spring when the weather looks a little friendlier. For those of u hardcore enough to still and I know there will be a few of u fairplay have a good weekend I will think of u whilst I'm in the house keeping dry

[Scattamah]

Still game, I'm coming across from Leicestershire and had visions of it being me, myself and I in Co-op car park. See you tomorrow

[burty]

are we meeting at the co op or the bakery in the high st

[Scattamah]

I'll roll with the consensus, but I'm happy to go to the bakery and get some brekky in me before getting out. If everyone knows where one is and not the other, then let's go there.

[Rob A]

The bakery is fine with me if you give me a rough idea where it is.

[Scattamah]

Coming in from the A49, you'll come up the main street.

I'm still in. Keep an eye out for a blue van. It's only weather, and sometimes the weather makes it more exciting! See you in the morning!

[custardfeet]

Would you bloody believe it!! Just spoken to the wife and she stamped my pass! Shame the bikes still in bits!! Have a great time.

[Scattamah]

Well bugger Andy...that's a cryin' shame. I quite enjoyed your tail-whip-plod...rather unique :) Perhaps you should bust out the toolkit and come 'n enjoy the liquid sunshine? We ain't left yet!
