    Ben is a friend of mine, who rides a bike, off the road, into streams...

    i' mup for monday - what are we doing re going lads?
    obv on train but seen as there will only be three of us from Manc and then jay getting on afterwards I say we all go for same train.
    If Whyte, Compo and Stealth get on train before guard arrives at the train he won't bother.
    Seen as Jays on;y going 2 stops, if he just gets on the train they cant do anything as they will only find out when it is moving so cant throw him off then :)

    In short - I say we all get the same train to Delamere.

    my brother went with his mates before and there were 4 of them on the train so we'll be fine. i think my cross country loop like last time and spend rest of the time in the cycle skills area(compo: you can just roll on the 4x track or use my bike :wink: ) i think be there at 10:30 and back at the station at 3:15 or 4 :15

    Right so is it Wednesday, Thursday or Friday
    Link to timetables here: http://www.northernrail.org/pdfs/timetables/20090427/17.pdf
    there is a train from Manc Picadilly at 1017 - arriving at 1126 into Delamere - that is 1117 for you Jay

    We all can get the same train coming and going

    Coming back the best is the 1519 from Delamere
    That gets into Greenbank at 1528 and Manc at 1636

    Is that ok for everyone?
    I presume Stealthy would get same train as me and Whytepeak to swinton or wherever

    I hope this speeds up our planning :)
