I've signed up for the [url= http://tweedlove.com/events/daytime/natural-tweed ]natural tweed ride[/url] this saturday starting at Glen Tress at 10am.

Looks like a nice route and weather looks pretty good on current forecasts.

Who's up for it ?

I have signed up coz I live nearby but only just moved there so don't know many trails.

Will be on a Black 853 Inbred with white forks if anyone wants to say hello

Shame the Mrs has to work so I will be solo

Hey Restless...

I'm in the same boat. I've been riding down there for years, but mainly marked trail centre routes at GT and Inners....

Moved down to Inners 3 months ago and discovering all the great natural stuff and keen to see if this will reveal some more. Will be riding a white Fuel EX with limey green retro mavic wheels.... and probably a matching limey green camelback. Won't be able to miss me.

Up for some local riding any time you fancy too. Try and get out at least one eve a week as well as weekends.

Will keep an eye out for you, the green might make you easy to spot alright

Meeting up would be great. I stay over near Broughton so not too far away.

Cool - yeah, that's pretty local. I spend most of my riding time at inners, as my house is right at the bottom of the hill 🙂

We'll keep an eye out for each other on saturday then, like you say, I should be easy to spot...

In fact, here's my bike:

Just for info - all the places are taken now for Natural Tweed. I'm just about to put up more details of the other mtb rides during the week. Great to have got such a good response for first year - all being well we should be able to do even more next year. Hope you local guys will come along to the local rides too? More the merrier, and we'll be doing some cracking trails. Separate thread on here for details later.

How do you guys have any time to ride with all that bike cleaning and polishing that goes on ? I'll be there tomorrow - arriving early to use the jet wash !

Mine only looked like that on the day it was built, it is now camoflauged with a healthy coating of mud and sheep s**t!

Do we want to kinda have an unoffical STW meetup at registration somewhere?

@laraichean, will try and arrange work so I can make the Tuesday ride too and my Mrs is planning on coming out on Friday with the ladies all being well

I have actually even washed the bike!

RestlessNative...

That could be a decent plan. I guess we'll all just see each other at registration... I'll aim to be there early (9.15 ish) for a coffee and egg roll in the hub.
