Gisburn Tues 27th
Hopefully a good few of us will be out on Tuesday. At the minute, the plan is to start from the pub (so park in the lane) and aim to start off about 9:30 - 10. This might change to the normal car park depending how many cars are coming, but the preferred start will be the pub.
Combination of a few half loops / loops with plenty of hope line / messing about chucked in. See who braves the slab etc.. By no means will it be a race pace day.. but a whole load of fun hopefully
The more the merrier, just don't forget the mince pies
In the mean time, happy christmas

Hi, I'm up in Preston over Xmas visiting the folks, so if I bring my bike, I may well be up for this. Been awhile since I've been to Gisburn, so would be fun. Will let you know if I'm coming along.
Happy Christmas,

I asked this in the Gisburn thread but will ask here too (sorry not trying to hijack)...
But how is Whelpstone crag holding up to all the rain?
I might be riding some time next week, but I always find the Crag to be a slog in the wet becasue it just turns into gloop!0 -

There's a group of us off to Gisburn Wednesday morning .... hope to be a Cocklet Hill car park about 9.45am ...
Looking forward to it .... what are the trails like after all the wet weather we've had ?
Cheers0 -
Ride was really good, bit of drizzle to start, but soon cleared up. 8 of us made it in the end, so not a bad turn out. Had a play on hope line, did the top loop. Had another play on hope line, then did the bottom loop. Then just to make sure we hadn't missed anything, had another play on hope line before going home
Trail conditions were absolutely fine, few puddles here and there to be expected, but nothing to moan about. Roots obviously a bit slippy, but that just adds to the fun.
Get up there and give it a go0 -
Had a brilliant day at Gisburn yesterday Was impressed how good the trails were to say all the rain we have had
Had a run down th Hope Line too ... mucho fun
Just a shame the Dog & Partridge was shut, was looking forward to some food there ... lol0 -
