Interesting rides are better than boring rides for sure.

absolutely - already had one major clean up this evening as we opted to ride home through the woods to avoid the gusts . . . Nothing like having to hose kids and bikes down after the school run :grin:

Did you get over the snake? I'm assuming not? We rode over white edge-really gusty on the top, along the road to owlet bar and then back through the woods into totley. A nice ride but pretty bracing on the edge...

3 artics stuck on the way home from Macc so didn't bother. This mornings ride to Castleton was good though. Over a foot of snow now, wish I had wider tyres, it was tough in places, a strange mix of snow types on ice patches near gateways. And then there was the lightning above Pindale, too close for comfort.

Shall we have a go at reorganising a regular(ish) night ride this winter? Ive really enjoyed the few that I got to.

Anyone fancy Monday 26th meeting somewhere Ladybower/Hope valley/Sheffield for a couple of hours?

Happy to change dates/locations.

Paul

Hi Paul, I'm up for a regular Monday night ride over the winter. However, I can't do next Monday due to a parents evening. Happy to start up after half term though
