I was just lookin at Hamsterley trailblazers site and for their monthly club ride in May they're having an 'away day'. Do you fancy doing something similar for a forum ride later in spring? no takers on away day ride then lads. _________________ The secret to speed...use the brakes less...

Might get myself along to this one and see how my fitness is coming along. Although I may do it in reverse and see if we meet you half way! _________________ Cheers, Sean

Although I may do it in reverse and see if we meet you half way! Do this route in reverse and your fitness will come on in leaps and bounds, I gaurantee it............. The climb out of Baysdale up to the Intakes is fierce!!!! The climb of Middle Head, it's sheer length is character building!!!! Crossing Middle Head Top,just plain tiring after the previous climb. Climbing Turkey Nab and crossing Battersby Crag Then doing Bankside................. Be a great ride to do another time if anyone feels up to it, I'll certainly do it if anyones in, maybe in 2 or 3 weeks time. Saturday or Sunday _________________ There was a checkpoint charlie He didn't crack a smile...............

Going to Twickenham to watch England v France - wahoo! 2. Have only got my Giant at the mo and there's no way I'm climbing anything steep on that cart horse!! However.....I'm heading up to Askrigg for A 2-hour ride on Sat AM with my mate Tony and Sean (SeanO) - I've room for one more in my motor if anyone fancies it? (Gunner, sorry for posting here ).

(Gunner, sorry for posting here ). Sounds good, despite the forecast rain. I'm off work and would have loved it but a new bedroom shall be arriving some time afer noon......... So I'll only be able to manage a quick blast on the road bike, as when I read noon, Saturday, I expect some time after 1000hrs but before 1730. So that's a day down the pan, sorry to ramble on....... _________________ There was a checkpoint charlie He didn't crack a smile...............

I was expecting a new bed for one of my boys and I'd arranged for it to be delivered at work (so no-one was left stranded at home). The delivery guy turned up at 7 am! You can't win Sorry you can't make it mate - I only grabbed the chance last-minute myself (haven't been out for last two weekends!)
