i assume you don't intend to ride from york (well york-ish) to beverley and back ;-)

I'm wounded that you should assume such a thing.











But you're right. I don't intend to.

 

[Soltydog]

I dont intend to cycle to Beverley from Hornsea either, i'm cheating & riving over with the bike in the car but that's only cause my lights would not last 4 hours

riving?.....well i've heard of writhing, but i've never thought of it as a form of locomotion. howerver, if you want to writhe from hornsea to beverley that's up to you, i'd set off nice and early though, may take a while ;-)

cheers, velocidad.

The weather's still looking ok, a little cloud cover will make it darker and more fun.

It'll be fine (I hope)

 

[Soltydog]

I'm just of out now for a warm up ride. An hour or two at a steady 5 or 6mph with my wife on her horse
I know you said we'd be at a steady pace tonight, but hopefully not this steady

 

[craigwend]

hope too see you all later..

Solty any chance of a lift back??

 

[ComedyPilot]

I am setting off soon to do the ride to Beverley. See you all at the Market Cross (if I'm not alone that is!!)

Thanks to everyone that turned out for an enjoyable, dark and chilly ride to the pub at South Dalton.

I was getting quite paranoid about the amount of hedges that had been recently cut, with trimmings strewn all over the road, but I got home ok with no punctures, everyone else make it ok?

Good to see you all and to put faces to names etc. I thought my lights were bright, but Soltydog's 'NightSun-Plasma-Retina-Burners' took the award for mobile light polution!! Uncle Phil gets the 'Dedication' award for travelling over to the east to join us. The one-upmanship conversation about ALDI bike gear was funny, and Helen, it's your turn to organise a ride. Daytime, Humber Bridge and decent weather are the requirements...go!

Thanks again, CP.

No, thankyou CP. You got me away from my computer for an evening. Nice to meet you all.
