The Woolpack Wobble Aftermath

Woolpack Wobble Aftermath




What a ride... it started with 35 mph+ head winds and a trip to go out doors, then a great day of green ways and secret trails with a great pub lunch for good measure. This sort urban green way riding take me back to the early days of me and a group of friends riding around the rivers and canals, searching for hidden trails and deer runs.

Thanks to Matthew for showing us round his backyard, I'm sure some of us will be back when its dryer to enjoy the secret singletrack and a cheeky pint at the Woolpack. Also a big thanks to all who braved the wind and made it a great Retrobike day out.


There's a link to the rest of my pics at the bottom of the post.

I'll let the pics tell the rest of the story...

Re:

Great day out in the wind, rain and mud. Missed most of the rain in The Woolpacks Executive smoking Shelter!

Good company as usual and it was most excellent to get the bike hosed off and lubed back at home (rather than my garden sprayer experiment - I'd have been better p*ssing on the bike to get it clean!) Now saving up for a proper rig like Petes!

See you all for the next one!

Gaddmeisters Ned homage...

Still not at the pub..





Executive smoking lounge - discovered by Ken Kebab (who got first dibs at the seating and picked the one where he got rained on!)



Very tasty Fish Butty...



Nay Mr Wilks... Soap history, right there...

Looked like a great day out, I have done this route before with Matthew. This year has been really busy for me, but I intend to be getting some rides in next month.
