Any one fancy a ride this coming sunday ?, meet up in settle about ten do a few of the local lanes and head up toward,s Hawes for a coffee/tea+ food,
It's probably best to pick the route on the day to suit the weather but it will be big bike friendly
I will be leaving tickle trout service's about 0900 with Tenere Mart. Yes he is back and out and about (thumbs)

anyone know the crack? An interesting opportunity for somebody?
I'd love to pop down to meet one or two, as I'm in the UK this weekend, and as I spent many happy years with a seasonal caravan pitch at Simonestone just above on the Buttertubs road (used to keep my DR650 and wife's DR200 in the awning!), but don't have a bike with me. Enjoy and gets some photos up please. I'll be there in spirit.

Re: Ride out 8th december
Hi Eric, I really fancy this, as long as you don't mind a mtx125 tagging along at the back.
Me tiger is away for the winter and I ain't sorted myself a proper green lane bike yet.
so the mtx is all I have to do it on. I have just restored/rebuilt it to a usable standard
And its proving to be quite reliable, so it should be fine on the lanes.
Getting to settle and back from Durham may be a bit of an endurance test.
I could be in settle for 10 on sun if that's ok ?
