Thanks for the offer bob. I've literally just spoken to john Dealey and he has agreed to lead.bobg wrote:Helen, if you want to lead the run then I don't mind riding support. Otherwise I am happy to lead but would prefer to change the destination to Churchfield Farm, nr. Droitwich. A new café for the club.

Helen I'm going to have to back down as leader as I've been in some pain and discomfort which has left me not able to sit on my saddle. Really sorry John No worries. I'm not strong enough to lead yet, so I've messaged john Dealey and he's agree to lead. I just hope you're feeling better soon, that'...

Hi all. Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to do this ride now. I had a pretty bad crash off my mtb a couple of weeks ago which resulted in a nice trip in an ambulance, lots of drugs, and memory loss of the crash! I was very lucky not to break anything and whilst the black eye has now faded, I e...

Brake blocks, thoughts?
Hi, I could do with some advice please. I've had my road bike for a year now and discovered at the weekend that I could probably do with changing the brakes, but I've realised I have no idea which brake blocks to get! A couple of forums mention swissstop, others say ashima. There also appears to be ...

My spesh shoes have a ratchet wire thingy closer on. They're a life saver for me as I have wide feet and a high arch and the Velcro straps on other shoes don't actually close across my foot. They're really easy to use and adjust, I've even managed to adjust them mid ride without falling off( for onc...

On Helen's points, I was leading the ride were she was acting as sweeper. It was poor communication that lead to the incident she describes. I was waiting at the top of the final climb of the day and the majority of riders continued on (we were at the top of Day House Bank).I then received a shout ...

A very interesting debate! I'm wondering whether the question here should be more about whether we should all keep an eye out for each other, rather than about the pace of the run? I have been on C runs where there has been very little communication within the group. I found it was difficult as lead...

The road up there is a dead end, so you climb it, then turn around and descend. I assumed Carl was thinking of going somewhere, other than half way up Bredon Hill, and was concerned about it being on his route. Ah. Well. You never know, he could have been wanting to do hill reps! :lol: But yeah, it...

The intro ride was good as it took everyone's ability into consideration, but it was a little bit slow. I'm tryi...
