p.m. sent with meet details. anyone else let me know?
we'll be passing through a few tunnels on the monsal trail, they should be lit up but might be best to bring some lights just in case.

I suggested
Up Roman road
Down Beast
Up Haggs
Down Lockerbrook
Up Stepping stones
Down from winstone Lee tor
Down to lady bower Inn
Back up to top of roman road and down to cars
15 20 miles 3/4k climbing
Steady pace and plenty of rest I imagine

Another cool ride today. A bit muddy... Thanks Glynn for showing us around. Glynn having fun  Chatsworth house on the back   now, unfortunately you can't really tell from the photo how steep this is...and also its a shame you weren't there to the experience the "help" from Glynn...quite funny. As you can see i did help after taking a few pictures from all angles. FYI, we were going uphill...lol (he blames me for it?!)    usual arty shot  |

hahaha! good job gonzalo was there, i was so tangled in my bike and thorns i would have still been stuck there now otherwise. but the irony is...G didnt quite make a small muddy gully, and stopped in front of me causing my tumble into the undergrowth  no sealskinz in the outdoor shop gonzalo, but there were some decent jackets and tops at a good price. |

I'm on the hunt for waterproof socks! Surely that's a business opportunity...looks like Sealskinz have the monopoly of this...and they we not even hat nice to look at!
