    If you live in England, Wales is practically the moon! I can get to the outer Hebrides with less hassle than Wales! (I spent a few days camping at Stoth cove on the Hebs last summer 8) )

    I've spoken to Monte before about life and working abroad. I also used to live in Bangor and getting back to England or visa versa was a fookin nightmare. I'd far rather Monte's commute to the crudite meet :wink:

    Hmm.. sounds interesting then. I warn you though, Mole hills really are considered mountains in Lincolnshire. I'm the biggest hypocrite here as I can't live up to the title 'mountain biker'.
    Sure you could leave those tasty cakes you posted behind?

    Why would he want to get to south Wales whenFOD is in England?
  • Just my luck that the FODCA is closed tomorrow for a Rally! Looks like we will have to find something else to ride then.
  • Well the actual trail itself wasn't closed when I went up on Saturday, the shop at the car park was though so I cant comment on that. Only had to watch out when crossing fire roads, but the rally was on a different stage when we rode round anyway so had no chance of getting mowed down.

    The actual trail itself is a bit of a mess in sections, seems like some heavy machinery has just driven over the trail, forcing you to get off and carry the bike over certain bits. This did get a bit annoying, but overall wasn't too bad. Bare in mind it is only 3 miles though, several laps with a lot of cake should be fine though.

    just remembered that the 20th is the same day as the 661 DH at FOD, it'll be rammed there.

    might have to see about getting there a bit earlier, i might get a sneaky lap in before you lot turn up :D

    Actually, it's from the Latin. 'February electi a Deo', or 'February, chosen by God'. Not perfect grammar, but I think everyone was able to ascertain what was meant.

    Can you put me down as a maybe now.

    Foot's still playing up, especially if I don't rest it. :(
  • Im out of this one. Esp after the Cwm Carn ride.

    Though my official reason is that I’m doing a local event (100km reliability ride) on a semi inappropriate bike (single-speed road bike with track gearing).

  • Fark!

    The new job combined with staged relocation regime cancels me out from this weekend's ride
    I am so very miffed about this and can only apologise, if I could make it, I'd be there for sure.
    :(

    Still haven't got the wheel back. I reckon they forgot to order the part. Not sure when I'll be getting it back. So for this reason I'm out

    Ok gys, executive decision, shall we postpone this one? it seems to be going that way

    Maybe rearrange it for the end of March maybe, hopefully with a bit better weather?
