    Turned into a CPs 4-5 Bugger me, I forgot how knackering this game was! A few thoughts on my exploits here:

    The emphasis for me at this stage will be on enjoying the scenery at a pace that won't kill me, so anyone looking to tag along, know you'll have to be fat & slow...or patient!

    So, there you have it...care to join me?
    A bump for this for anyone up for it, though after my last efforts, I've scaled back my ambitions to a Pendle hill session. Probably aiming for 3,000ft of climb and about 10 miles. As long as it takes.

    If anyone's interested in doing this either tomorrow or Friday, let me know and we can make plans; otherwise I'll bob off on me own.

    In the absence of takers, and with the sun shining yesterday, I sorted the garden out instead. A great workout, having moved 4.25t of material by hand, solo, in 2 hrs...

    ...but let's face it, I still wimped out of my hill session!

    So tomorrow it is. 8am from Barley. Will be slow, but aiming for c3,000ft. Be there or be square.

    You should have come to the Pendle Cloughs today mate, cracking race.

    Brought back memories of when we tackled the Pendle Monster from Downham, definitely didn't feel like tagging on a full tour after the last CP today!!

    I was tempted, briefly...but after my first venture onto th'ills a couple of weeks back, I knew I wouldn't stand a chance! Hence the need to get back out there tomorrow.

    Pendle Monster seems a very long time ago!

    Doh! Got one of those phone alarms where you pick the days the alarm should go off at that time...in my slightly tipsy state last night, I didn't notice it wasn't set for Sat/Sun. Assuming no replies = not letting anyone down, but just in case, I thought I'd explain myself. Heading over there now.
