After a rather chilly start this morning it turned out to be a perfect day to get back into group riding again. Thanks to everyone who turned up. Admittedly quite a bit faster than I'd intended (my fault) but everyone seemed to cope. A warm welcome to Curt who I'm told this was his longest ride in 5...

Inspired by the Spring Classics of Flanders & Amstel Gold this will be a lumpy club ride with the option of a cafe stop at Broadacres Fisheries. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/34463181 Usual 6 place ...

Please remember to route the ride through Rushock.

Haha I've been through there this evening and wasn't stoned or encountered any locals with pitch forks out on the road.

If Mr Richards agrees you could take another group to Spiders Web & set off 15 mins later?

I know David Bowen was interested in doing the ride.

Hi Nick,

Are you still okay to lead the A run tomorrow? There's only three of us and I'm happy to jump onto one of the B runs if you'd prefer to change plans

Hi Pete,

Yes of course. I won't be offended if you'd prefer to jump across to another ride although I think the B Run is now full.

4 (fool) hardy souls ventured out on this morning's A Run to Albrighton.

To say the rain was biblical was an understatement. I even managed to loose a contact lens in the downpour.

Thanks to:

Hope you all dry out soon.

No problems Darling, see you in the morning.

Nick, if ok with you I’ll provisionally book a place. I’m at work until 2 and given the earlier start I will have to see what time I get in. Always a chance of being held on. If you get six perms then just let me know and drop me out. No problem mate. Let's hope it's a quiet night for you & no late...

Not sure if anyone got the message about an earlier start, or I've developed a bad odour but I was the only one on the A Run to Cobhouse Fisheries. I waited until 8:30am then set off solo.

This Sunday's A Run re-visits the scene of the original "tomatogate", Blackminster.

Should our glorious club run secretary join us please be aware the sheer sight of a tomato presented to him may result in some incredible hulk style rage. You have been warned!!!

Today's A Run to Albrighton was quite an eventful one with 3 separate incidents involving idiot drivers. The first unfortunately resulted in a crash involving Andy & John.

Nicks_77

I think maybe do Sunday's ride as a combined A/B if no one has any objections but keep the speed at a sensible pace.

It is intended as a social ride afterall especially with our guest rider Katie coming along.

Tomorrow's weather looks positively awful but i'll still be heading over to the BH for an 8:15 start for a non stop ride.

Nicks_77

In the interests of keeping to club traditions for the Hill Climb Championships, this Sundays ride will be a burst ending at the Hill climb around 10’ish. As a 9:15 start will give little time for a decent ride I propose an 8:15 start from the BH. Route to be decided unless the club secretary decide...
