British Steel ride - Forest of Dean 5th August

I can bring my pocket Pentax and The RC will have his I-phone, which in his hands takes excellent pictures.

As for what bikes; I expect each and every one of you to be on a hand made steel British bike.


But then, he who expects nothing is seldom disappointed, so I'll settle for a dry day and a bunch of folks on bikes.

What are ground conditions like? It's been wet on and off since Sunday evening here, so I'm thinking I can leave the TrailRakers on the Roberts.

Excellant - have you managed to remove all of the uphill bits? (not so keen on those!)

Not quite all the uphill bits -or there would be no downhill bits

How about swapping a back wheel off another one of your bikes
