Anyone fancy riding this weekend.

Probably last ride before Xmas presents are dished out and you all have new Xmas kit.

Hopefully the weather will be suitably filthy, offering the added thrill of a real challenge.

I fancy riding up from Kildale over to Armouth Wath then onto Hob Hole and then across the Moor to warren Ho. farm and back to Kildale.

Some exposed riding, good views and good descents.

I'd prefer Saturday, but open to offers Wink

Yes Wink

But no different to our usual rides, what we go up we've got to come down.

You'll enjoy this one Grant, it crosses some desolate parts of the moors, with a fantastic long downhill section that you can really motor on.

Hope you can make it Ritchie, but I hope you've got some warm gear, we cross some desolate open moorland.
And don't forget the vinyl undergloves, and the freezer bags for your feet. Wink

Really hope you can make it Smile

Penciled the two dates in my diary, will let you know closer the time.

Can I make a suggestion while I am at it, given the date, and the proximity to the 25th, we all gotta wear Santa hats, come on, that would make a great forum picture, a website home page picture to be proud of.

Gunner you can carry the Xmas tree up to the highest point, that might stop you taking pictures of us all pushing our sleds Wink
