Many thanks to Steve and to Reuben for getting this ride off the ground. I really enjoyed it and I intend to be out for the next one too.

I'm planning on riding from the square tomorrow at 10am. Destination Danby via Egton Bridge. Pace; relaxed. Some company would be nice...

Yes Allan, I've been having some "issues" with Garmin Connect over the last day or 2. A little looking around and I found this:

+1 for build your own. For my winter bike I built a pair using DuraAce 7900 hubs, dt 2/1.8/2 double butted spokes laced 3x into 32h mavic open pro rims using 12mm dt brass nipples. My thinking here was to use v high quality parts with the exception of the rims cos they're sort of sacrificial. So far ...

Well done guys, truly inspirational stuff. I know just how hard it must’ve been having done Tan Hill December with you a couple of times in easier conditions.

I was so relieved not to be going this morning, I even said a little prayer for you after reading the Harbinger of Broom’s posting!

Anyway ...

Hi, I've decided not to come along tomorrow. Good luck to all those sallying forth, hat off to you.

A letter in today's Times led me to this:

Sheesh, this chap should stick to gassing people IMHO!
Grim reading indeed for all us self confessed carbon tarts!
I obviously think that his conclusions must be somehow fundamentally flawed but actually I ...

Thanks Cam, 5 at Pete's Bench tonight for trip round Bossall, Buttercrambe and Stamford Bridge. The roads were completely ice free and the ride was almost pleasant once we'd warmed up - which took about 5 miles.

p.s. everyone had both front and rear mudguards fitted, which was nice!

Pete's bench tonight @ 6:30

I really enjoyed the ns training ride last week so I'm thinking that maybe the h group could do it every other week. Anyone got any thoughts on this?

For this coming Saturday, Cockayne ACW with cafe stop at Helmsley at just over 50 miles, total ride length ca. 80 miles. All welcome.

See you in the ...

Cycle Heaven route tonight. I'll be there for 6:30

Just for a change, I fancy doing the non stop training ride this coming Saturday; so no h route posted below.

If anyone would prefer the "traditional" h ride of c. 90 miles with cafe stop then please feel free to post a route map/route description below.

See you Sat.

Nestle tonight. I'll be there at half six

Judging by your form on the night rides, I should think that you'd cope with this route / anticipated pace just fine G. And don't worry, regrouping stops are carried out whenever necessary; you'd never be abandoned on the Moors, or anywhere else come to that, unless you wanted to be of course!

See ...
