    Re: Todays Bike Ride



    Just looked at the work calendar and it transpires that the colleague has booked both those weekend days off!!! So can't do the 24th after all

    Mind you, I do have two whole weekends off in October so I suppose he is compensating for that by making me work last weekend and the weekend on 24/25 so can't say much

    Should be in need of liquid by about 12.45ish.

    Merry will be along later with his vote.

    PS you cycle up to Stainland then back past your house for extra training

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Haven't really been for a long bike ride before but yesterday went Dent > Hawes > Fleet Moss > Wharfedale > Embsay > Skipton. 50 miles and an ace ride, but got rained on at the top of Fleet Moss and the hill above Embsay, meaning some pretty slithery descents.

    Anyone fancy the Tour of the Peak? http://www.kilotogo.com/index.php?op...ail&event_id=6

    Might have a bash (but need to get another couple of long rides in or it'll kill me!)

    A trip up to Ingleton (the 4 other riders out gave in to the weather at Settle). Nice sarnie at Inglesport cafe and then back over Bowland Knots. About 74 miles with a nice climb in the middle. Very wet.

    14 mile this afternoon.

    Two punctures in rear tubes and a loose spoke.

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Have you got a track pump Trev? Try and stick with 100psi and make sure the tyres are in good condition. Once they start getting worn they become puncture magnets. Check the rear for wear as the canvas soon starts to show through..............
