I have got a nice little route sorted. Nice short easy climbs, short cuts to be able to take if needed and no gulleys......
Seriously, I'll have a look tonight for a route around the 20 mile mark and like me bro says, I'll try and cut out some of the boring undulating stuff.0 -

Deffo mate, its been a good while since we'd had a ride together! Yer, im affraid i work 12hrs on a saturday and wednesday now as well as working Fridays. So sundays tend to be a good day for a group ride.
Just been doing 20-30mile road rides once a week with my boss on my SX Trail just to keep the fitness up really. Not done any real offroad riding in a good 2 weeks. Last time I was on a demo bike at Dalby.Yorkshire Man living in Somerset
