You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Duncan has offered to show us a hard pack Rivvi that shouldn’t involve too much mud. After that we’ll do a bike ride.
Duncan – Name your pub.
8:15 blast off
Bring money for beer, a sense of adventure and something to bite down on.
Chipps also mentioned going to Gisburn. We'll have a chat to see if it is do-able for the 14th.
Jolly crofters as per it's open to 12....
It's not gonna be a massive loop as my knee is still not right.
But we have some nice options... anyone want any requests
Ice cream run?
Johnys drop?
Or a really knarly singletrack track decent into the quarry
Or we could all pile to mine for a brew
Or we could all pile to mine for a brew
Brew as in mug of tea, or is it another filthy euphemism?
On the subject of Gisburn... Would anyone be up for it? It is a little outside our usual range for a school night.
i replied to this earlier. it's been deleted. seems apt, i wish someone would delete me from the world.
I'm up for Rivvi
I'd also be up for Gisburn but would need to get a flyer from work as it's an hour and a half trip for me
Pub address
Chorley Old Rd, Horwich, Bolton BL6 6RE
I'm going on holiday in a couple of weeks so I'm not allowed to injure myself. I will be mincing down The Ice Cream Run. As usual.
Ive recently moved to Over-Hulton, cool to tag along this coming Monday if I can leave work Handy?
Sure.
We will take the piss though. Sorry.
I can handle that, normal experience for a scouser out of town 🙂
FFS not another one 🙄
Baz is on holiday so we need to fill the quota
I will be there on Monday.
But big god dam and double dam, I'm away on the 14th for the Gisburn ride. Would be up for that another time.
I'm in. I've hardly ridden a bike in the last couple of months, so I'll be so far behind you all it'll be like a solo ride.
Or I might just punch Dunc in the knee periodically to slow him down
You won't need too.
I'm slow not ridden for 2mths....
I've a couple of route options depending on what people want
As my family are 200 miles away for the next few days, I'm struggling to come up with excuses this week but I will be mincetastic.
Bikeless and waiting for the new steed (spanking new Trance 2 as it happens, too cheap in the sales to pass on) which should arrive on Tuesday (get in!) However, definitely up for Gisburn if that gets the green light..
looks unlikely i'll be out, as f@*king usual. getting really really sick of this now.
I feel your pain brother. Having just opened my inbox after a week off, I can safely say my chances of making it out tonight are about the same as the chances of me suddenly sprouting wings and having the ability to fly.
Still.... at least that means the sun should be out for the rest of you, and you don't have to wait around at the top of every climb for me
Can't make it tonight now due to work commitments but enjoy the ride...
Well it rained last night so hard it's washed part of the lane away.
On the plus side it's not muddy....
If I’m not there by 8:15 don’t wait.
Mrs Spider has very sensibly pointed out that our family holiday next week is entirely dependent on me being able to drive and a tumble down the Ice Cream Run would end up fatal, either as a result of the initial fall or by being beaten to death when I got home/lay immobilized in hospital. I drove to Suffolk a couple of years ago with two green thumbs and a suspected broken wrist. It wasn’t pleasant.
So… I’m going to karate instead ? 😀
Walk down ICR!
Surly you can get hurt at karate too!
So is anyone going to be there?
I'm still playing out tonight.
We don't have to do the Icr
It'll be like a river....
I've got an easier route down if you want it
Ill be there at 8ish, on an Orange Four, see you there!
Tim
Enjoyable tonight.
Even weirder was Tim knew half my Mates from back home....
Thanks for leading the way Duncan, will be out again soon for sure 🙂
