Demo an Orange bike and take it round in the wake of Ed 'Great Rock' Oxley, cake with Singletrack and new bikes from Brant. You can win something too for being able to change a tyre quickly. I won't be doing that bit. Teva shoes on demo and local physio Ali Mills is taking road riders out and about too.

Blazing Saddles should be the centre of a well-deserved Hebden Bridge cycling love-in for the day. Nowt better.

More details that I can muster on their [url= http://blazingsaddles.co.uk/site/?page_id=1011 ]website[/url]

Good shop and nice people.

Friendly too - loads of people post on here enquiring about routes round Hebden and Tod:
Speak to this lot - they'll put you right.

I only wear a lid because of them: Turned up on a demo day and they wouldn't let me leave the shop without lending me one - gits.

Love that they'll lend you a bike lock to park outside their shop too.

Nice all round - good for cycling visitors and also for local shops (i.e. me) as it means that people can get cake and wander round without worrying about their bikes too much.

I'm going along, will be good to have a guide around Hebden, hopefully there'll be a few hints at route options too.

Hey, quick reminder.

Although the Ed rides are booked up, the road ride still has spaces. If you want a change like.

And there's cake. I guess there'll be a few people happy to point out their favourite routes. I'll be on the 2pm ride (but as I'm shy and retiring I won't be wearing a name badge...).
