Another great day out in the Peak District.
36 riders set out and only 11 completed the whole route with a couple of ride ending mechanicals and a few more who had to get back for pressing engagements.
And so:
Mechanical of the ride went to Longun for his disintegrated bottom bracket.
Crash of the ride went to slmracing for his over the bars at the bottom of Bradwell Edge amongst others.
Bike of the Ride was a close run thing with bhill22's Dave Yates Diablo and rc200ti's Pace RC200 F5 coming very close, both deserving honourable mentions.
There were also many other fine machines being ridden too.
But it was the Muddy Fox Sorcerer belonging to BadBaz77 which took the overall Bike of the Ride honours.
As a prize he took away a NOS Raleigh Mustang which was generously donated by legrandefromage.
It should also be noted that Longun won the Pin Dale climbing challenge this year. Perhaps this is what destroyed his bottom bracket.
Thanks as always to Spencer13 for providing post ride beer and to everyone who made the customary post ride bike jumble sale such a varied and well stocked affair.
Thanks also to everyone for coming along and riding.
It's always a pleasure to ride with such fine gentlemen and lady.
