Was meant to be heading to south Wales over the Xmas break but my 2 riding buddies have let me down again!!!! Anyone know a way to cure this problem???
You sounds a little deflated by the hole experience, are they under pressure from anyone to not go?
I would say guess but it doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out who!!!! Which seems weird as they both brought brand new treks a couple months ago
it really knocks the wind out of you when mates do this!
they were probably full of hot air when they agreed to it, shame cos its a good opportunity to let off steam
the cure? .... more friends 😀
OR their ms rules their diaries and they are space cadets and forgot it was Christmas? I say, go anyway and make sure you tell them how much of a fabulous time you had!
the cure? .... more friends
You of all people should know better than that Mr Phil, but as you are hungover i'll let you off.
Cure - set up a forum ride in South Wales so you don't miss out on your biking 😉
have you considered that maybe they don't like you.
Tell me about it. Luckily even though I've got a daughter and the wife's pregnant I can go riding whenever I like.
So I was looking forward to hitting the south wales hills rather than the quantocks
Am thinking about finding some new riding buddies seeing as mine have turn into massive let downs
When are you going?
We were thinking about going up from North Devon over Xmas.
Luckily even though I've got a daughter and the wife's pregnant I can go riding whenever I like.
Have you got your priorities right?
[s]you won't be getting much on fathers day, that's for sure. maybe that's why your friends keep ditching you, they think that if they don't go you might actually spend some time with your young family.[/s]
high 5!
Tell them there will be lots of attractive women there.
put a post up on here and organise a forum ride for the day you were gonna ride there.
one of the best weekends i ever had was when me and my lad went up to inners and glentress over xmas to meet a load of lads off here
it was a fantastic weekend.
build it and they will come............ 8)
Have you though about taking up climbing, and inviting fit birds to come along? You could have a bright future ahead if you do....
i have got my priorities rite thanx ive just got an understanding wife. i spend loads of time with them it helps that the quantocks r 5 mins up the road. everybody needs some downtime to do what they enjoy
i like the sound of fit birds as company doubt the wife would though
sure they do. i'm sure you're great. HIGH 5!
We go over fairly often from Bristol. Welcome to join us if you want. Mail in profile.
Where were you planning to ride in beautiful S.Wales leec247 ?. I'm thinking of puting a North Cardiff ride together for Tues the 27th.
cheers chap that would be good
was thinking of cwmcarn really enjoyed it a few months ago and was looking forward to heading back there
i'll come. when are we off?
I've got a couple of mates who do this all the time. Some of the time the reason is genuine but usually it's very weak. It's particularily annoying when you've put off other plans and then they let you down.
We're pretty sure with one of them it's because he's let his fitness slide. On the day of the ride every excuse in the book comes out. All it means is his fitness slides further behind.
Option 1 - Kill yourself
Option 2 - Kill them
Option 3 - [b][i][u]KILL EVERYBODY! [/b][/i][/u]
im the least fit out of the 3 of us but i make up for it going down the hills!!!!
plus its just good to get out somewhere different for a change
it's definitely that they just don't like you then.
thanx!!!!!!
or they r jealous of my supieror riding skills
that might be it, yes. HIGH 5!
was thinking of cwmcarn really enjoyed it a few months ago and was looking forward to heading back thereCwmcarn could be an option. It would be a combination natural/ trail centre ride, about 3-4hrs.
Taxi you could MTB over Castell Coch, Rydry, cow pat hill and into Cwmcarn, lap of Cwmcarn then back to Caerdydd!! That would be an epic showing leec some proper Welsh trails!!!
PS and on the way home stop at the Maenllwyd (not sure on spelling) pub and get some hot apple pie and custard to help those last few miles home .... Man I'm selling it! Wish I could come but I'll be back to work by then. Enjoy whatever you do. JEALOUS
