looking at riding on one of these days. anyone able to join me? as usual im open to suggestion. if its a peaks ride im thinking macc. forest/wildboarclough, or with all the dry weather we've had lately, cutgate will be ridable again as long as we dont have too much rain in the meantime.

I could potentially do it on the 6th...or 8th...but it will depend on weather...since I would have to take a holiday for it, I'd rather if it's good weather...since I envisage in the summer having better chances of great riding opportunities!...if you know what I mean!?

Aye not long to go now, ive got a couple of bike company contact to get in touch with and maybe organise a ride. I'm not sure if Fuetoventura is any good though so might just hire a roadie to keep myself ticking over.

just bumping this back up for next week. up to now it looks like me and gonzalo. friday is now going to be the best day for me, or thursday if we get a really early start and finish. we've already spoke of a possible route, but that depends on whether anyone else will be joining us. gonzalo are you still up for this?
