I think I'll probably just go for a mess about up GF and then do a bit of bike maintenance in the afternoon. Cheers for the offer though!

undulating natural muddy some good fast down bits, i have not been down the theiveley pike since august so i don't know how winter has treated it. at the sharneyford end i found a trail that leads to portsmouth and it is the best technical downhill i have ever been on. couple of miles long. i'm hoping i can spot the turn off again.

Think i'm gonna pass on this one 2moro. heading out with a rookie so dont want to scare him with anything to technical. gonna break him in gently at llandegla instead.

However give me shout next time your doing this route and i'll head out with you

I'm having such a shit day in work, I can't wait to get out on the bike!

Think I'm going for an early one up Gisburn, 8:30 start before it thaws out and turns into a clay pit!

Lol too early for me

Takes me an hour to get to Gisburn, So i'll probably leave the house around 9-9:30
