Calling out the organisers!? Since the last one was close to epic, where is the next one? We should try and make one every month I think! (ideally towards end of the month in July!? Lol)

Well I've got a cheeky 9 days off starting 2nd week in July, so was thinking of heading up to Whinlatter as I've never ridden there before. Not firm on a date yet though.

When's the plan to do Helvellyn for those that missed it earlier in the year? Whilst Winlatter is good your driving passed some of the countries best natural trails to get to it |

I'm not going to be doing Helvellyn, my back problems have put my fitness so far back it's just not an option - so that one is down to others.
It's also the reason I'm driving past natural stuff - with me being uncertain yet of how it's going to be long term - I need the 'predictability' of trail centre riding so I don't unduly jar my glass back with any nasty surprises. Trail centres and known-to-me-already natural stuff for the rest of the year.

For those that are in need of some great natural stuff how about a Grizedale route. Similar to Ants classic. If ant can't make I'm sure gaz knows his way around those parts.

Sorry gas noticed earlier that you've only just been around Grizedale do may fancy a change.
Can only do the 16th, anything south lakes sounds good, I'm a goer for Ambleside, would we ride parkamoor tto link to grizedale, supposed to be a good descent. Don't scare off too many with one of your 35 mile 9000ft climbing epics though eh gaz. besides I've just put a stone on in China and need to get back into it.
16th south lakes, Ambleside/ Grizedale, what say the masses?

Hodgy so far deffo is me, Beans and Eurobob - possibly with Munky and Polish Robert too (they will confirm by the end of the weekend too)
Roundie - be good to meet up again. The more the merrier I say!.
PS Robert had a good crash today up at Stile Cop, so hopefully he'll be ok for Thursday - he managed to ride back to mine but his knee was looking a bit mangled.

When does he not crash?!? He's our very own crash test dummy  it's not that he isn't a good rider - he's well better than me, but Roberto rides on the edge all the time - the edge of his ability I mean, he pushes everything to 100% of what he can do - I prefer to ride well within myself (an age thing probs). I know one thing - I've got more skin intact than he has, right now |

Hope he's alright! He went skidding down the trail in front of me on our off piste trip
That may off been because we were pushing on while having a full blown convo haha
Where did he come off?

Enjoy guys...I'm only really available to ride after the 25th now! Was hoping to be available earlier and the forum ride to be more towards the end of the month, but we always have August when the sun shines...apparently!?

Hahaha. Robs a tit!!!
Missus's birthday Thursday so I've got to do that whole "being there" shit and looking like I'm listening when her lips start flapping so I'm out. Shame 'cos I'd really like to go. Really need to get out.
