Will be up for something at the weekend, but not sure what. I need at least one day out of the BH weekend to sort out stuff at home, but still leaves two possibles.

And a 'maybe' for an evening ride this week. Soggy Swinley perhaps .

I'm out on Wednesday unless its raining too much, then I'll convert to the dark side and take the roadie out :twisted:

any wales trip n the end ? afan? cwmcarn??

Wednesday has potential as I may have the day off sorting out the boiler and other stuff. Weather looks pretty nasty for the evening though! Afternoon to evening could be okay with maybe the odd shower.

Wales - Could do. Ideally if we've got enough to share cars. As usual I can take one person, or if someone has space I can get to them.

If it's Cwmcarn I just need to get that full face ordered

Atz

As I said to DK yesterday, not totally sure about Wales as I'm probably having house guests this weekend so bailing for a day would be a bit rude

Shmikuk

Wednesday evening may be a goer depending on weather!

thel33ter

Swinley is going to be swamplike anyway so rain or not you will end up soaked

Helter

Had a good ride with Popstar yesterday on the new Beast, need a few adjustments but will be ready for some adventures this weekend.

Afan sounds like a good bet, any takers?

Plaisir

I think I would be up for Afan, good climbs

supra-man

I m up for afan too. have fun on some fast XC single track

popstar

This new Helter's toy should and probably would head here :



Amen.

Hi guys have just got back into biking since last year, I would definately be up for afan at the weekend and i can give somebody a lift and share the diesel cost etc...

If you agree a day and time post it up cheers lads looking forward to it.

popstar

Think the day will be confirmed by Friday. As need to see clearer indication of what's the weather going to be like. Atm it's Sunday-Monday, whichever day will be drier.

Redmans

Im working monday and no way of taking leave, Sunday would be the only day i could go or i will try surrey hills on saturday ive never been there before will try from peaslake. And get Lost LoL :P

thel33ter

The mmmBop's looking fantastic, need the Ragley decals on the headtube though.

Very tempted to get one from the CRC sale but can't afford to build it up, Unless...

cooldad

@Helter - very nice.
@thel33ter - Unless... what. I worry when you start thinking.
@Redmans - good chance there will be a ride at SH this weekend. Might be there Sunday. Keep an eye on here see if SH or Wales works.

Can get everything apart from a headset, stem and new tyres within budget

New from shops that is.

@thel33ter - Decals... noooooooo!!!!!
I've stripped all of them off the bike, forks and rims, debadged it good and propa. Now it's just the beautiful blue lines with a touch of red, mmmNice.

@London Calling - It's carnival weekend so I'm going to throw Saturday into the mix as well for the Afan trip?

Light rain and showers for tomorrow afternoon round Swinley way, according to Metcheck. Still, as I've got the day off it would be a shame to waste it by not getting out somewhere.

Wouldn't want to go to Afan tomorrow though!

Metcheck shows sunny days Sat, Sun and Monday. Slight shower before lunch on Saturday but clear skies the rest of the time. Not much in it really. But forecasts are generally rubbish until 24 hours before, so anything could happen.

thel33ter

Sunday will be best for me, busy Saturday and not sure about Monday yet.

Would you and cooldad be up for Afan?

Plaisir

Main carnival is Monday I thought? ATM sat on sun is good with me, wouldn't mind Wales but anything is good

I would, as always, it's just up to Cooldad.

supra-man

looks like we will probably go sunday then.

Carnival is Sunday and Monday. Biggest day is Monday but you can keep it going from Sunday morning.

cooldad

Afan not really on this weekend. Thel33ter is only being dropped off around 8 and probably picked up around 5 is, so taking off the best part of 6 hours travelling, that doesn't leave much riding time.

It's also Dunsfold Wings & Wheels 29th and 30th. If you're out in Surrey Hills you'll should be able to see it from Pitch and Holmbury hills, if a little bit distant. The Vulcan is scheduled to attend which is always impressive.

Hmm, Afan, airshow, carnival :?:

Can pick me up early and mum doesn't mind picking me up late or having me dropped off.

Plus the route from Woking goes through Bagshot.

Spock's gonna be there?

Sounds like Sunday, there isn't a specific meet time yet as far as I can tell.
