More to follow I'm sure.

Another great day organised by Mr K with another impressive turnout. Fortunately Neil also arranged 20 degrees and blue skys - happy days!!!

That's been the highlight of year for me. A great ride in glorious surroundings with top fellas having a great laugh. So many things happened it's hard to recall them all but a few highlights for me were abusing the Specialized nob, abusing the miserable horse riding fella and an unbelivable night in the worst pub/restaurant ever. Looking forward to seeing some pics.

Great day out, thoroughly enjoyed it - even the evil descents which were a lot easier this year! I got back to Hope in one piece and still feeling quite fresh - rather different to last year when I could hardly stand up! The 1cm travel on my 'new' forks certainly helped, you rigid riders don't know what you're missing.

Thanks to everyone for making it so good and to MrK for organising it again.

Here's to the next one!! Very Happy

Thank you one and all. That's got to have set several benchmarks ; company, bikes, weather, riding, pub.
Special thanks to Mr K.
Looking forward to the next time..

Well done Mr K. A great ride indeed. I am still waiting for my pub meal to arrive though...

A few highlights for me:

> LGF bailing on me Friday night, and then promptly agreeing to still come seconds later!
> Getting an initial warm reception from Judith at the Woodbine B&B
> Getting 'Wow!' comments from the guys in our car park when the Nishiki and GT came out the boot
> Seeing new faces at the pre-ride MrK photo shoot
> The friendly banter on the way round
> The weather
> LGF giving the ride a shot. Hats off to him, he was a mess and spent the rest of the day in bed
> orange71 owning the hill climb and pipping P20 the 'Hillclimb Crown' by a tyres width
> Lunchtime tales with DrS
> The step descent down to the river crossing and a dozen horses!
> A cool welcome pint and the finish
> Heathy in the pub......nuff said Wink

> Evening banter with the boyz and Wu-Tangled's paparazi tales
> Heathy's 5.30am alarm call Shocked

> Judith's not so warm welcome to Heathy at breakfast Laughing

Wicked weekend all round, roll on the Christmas Cracker ride now Wink

Now where are the other photos guys!
