As title. It’s looking like I may have next weekend free. Not confirmed yet but likely.

I’d like to ride a social paced outing with a bivy or Bothy on Saturday.

Anyone around? Sheffield based but can travel. In fact, would rather travel a little way to ride somewhere new(ish)

We never seem to be sychronised :roll: never mind, in any case you'll need to be riding further and faster than me currently. training to do!

If you're bored and fancy a ride in Salop, I could be enticed out for a night on Long Mynd. Already lined up for the 16th with MAM of this parish on Abdon Burf as well if you want to make a long weekend of it.

If you want to ride Long Mynd, the weekend is better for me. The Clee is a school night location for me ATM.

Done fella.

@Ian - there's a target if you fancy something non-local. Park up here...ride over Wenlock Edge and across Ape Dale...down to the Ragleth for chow 'n a jar or three...nice climb up to the usual haunt. Brekky at the Glider Club or down in town after a nice drop off the side of the hill. Blat around the hill or return on paved or mixed surface.

Hey Scott ,do we have to book a table at the pub as it's a Saturday night for food or can we just tramp in, will need food this time and not just beer due to riding down ( plus it may help stop the very early morning ablutions)

Normally we just show up but chow finishes @ 21:00. I'll give 'em a yell and make sure it's all sound. There are other options in LS/CS as well.

Ian, I reckon all that ^^^ is a far superior time to anything I can offer, but if it falls through for whatever reason and you fancy a small jaunt out from Sheffield, drop me a line...

Cheers dude. Think the weekend plans are sorted now. Have been meaning to head that way and hang with Scott and mike for a while now.

But keen for trip out from Sheffield if you are interested. Mark and I ride most Monday’s from S7/11 area if that works. It’s a 10-15km ride ending at the Norfolk arms. Drop me a dm if you are interested
