cheers for the ride last night lads & good to meet you, i thought i'd be a physical wreck this morning but wasn't too bad (well apart from a swollen elbow from going over the bars lol !!! ) hope you all have a good ride on sunday.

sl2371

when did you go over the bars had i gone by then

DanielleT

Guessing its still all on for tomorrow chaps?

Where will we be parking up when we get there? I think the lady from Sheffield maybe meeting up with us, she's not entirely sure yet but I said i'd let her know the details.

Cheers! Looking forward to a good ride out!

Aye, still up for the ride defo. I hope Matt has made arrangements to pick you up tomorrow morning....?

We can either meet in Humber Bridge Car Park at 7.30 or meet in Hope itself. We will be setting off from Hope Car Park which is opposite the Woodbine Cafe, hopefully around 9.30-10.00.

Darren was behind me going through the last bit of singletrack, I did try to warn him about the hole, but I couldn't have shouted loud enough....

Shame I missed the tumble, I did hear the loud screams though....

I hope your elbow is ok now mate.

hey mate, Yep we tend to do rides mainly on the Moors and Peaks. Sometimes esp in the winter we ride around Dalby too. Although most of our rides tend to be more natural riding then man made trail centres, although we will ride at most places!

The pics for todays ride!

Great weather made for some good views of an always impressive Hope Valley. First heres the pics of people coming down from Hollins Cross, even with my crash it was a good dh bit, with a nice bit of peadling in the middle, although i don't think Giggsmaster liked be over taking him on a rough line!







The view into Edale Valley.


Altern_8 fixing his puncture at the top of Jaggers Clough.

Then we headed down "the Beast" which reminded me more of the top half of the world cup downhill course at Fort William, super fast, rocky and Technical. My Bike loved it!


PIcs from the last Descent, coming down from the top of the forest at Wooler Knolls (Woodlands Valley, on the side of Ladybower), down towards Fullwood Stile Farm.




Cheers for today Giggsmaster, Altern_8, DanielleT & MissBint37.
