Anybody up for a ride Sunday morning.
From 9.30am clapham village. Parking on road side near NT car park before and after it.
If anybody is interested I will send further details.
Nothing too crazy but a few tough climbs and some good descents. Wide tracks and nice singletrack mostly weather proof but Sunday looks to be a good day.

Gaz and glynn two romantics. Who would have thought it.
But still considering a meet up for a ride though.
Should I forget about clapham and come up to Ambleside or Grizedale instead if you fancy a three some. I mean the three of us do a ride aoeund there. Parka Moor and Grizedale??
No I didn't manage to get out glynn plenty of hire shops etc but looking at the landscape it seemed to be lots of flat boring land in between modest sized hills which which were mainly fenced off for farming or vineyards so seemed to be a faff for little reward. Most people were just cruising the promenade on their bikes.
I've just been eating and drinking mostly so feel I need to get out there now and try and regain some modicum of fitness.
