A place to talk about anything! Want to find someone to ride with? Get help on mending things? Organise lifts?

Weather looks to be rain free, if misty, with the wind coming from the East. To make best use of this, plan is to head out in same direction as last week to Leavening and do a circuit through North Grimston, West Lutton, Sledmere, Wetwang and come back through Pocklington and Bishop Wilton.

Should be about 70 miles getting us back to York for 13:00.

Rain forecast on Friday, so full mudguards please - I was still picking road grit out of my eyes a day after the last ride.... With fog/mist on the cards, please bring lights as well.

7 left the square for the ride into the Wolds. A couple of changes to the planned route to allow a couple of riders (Dr Dave and Greg) to divert back to York early.

65ish miles, quite a few hills, lots of fog and two punctures saw the main group back in York just after 1pm.

For those left with "pump envy" Wiggle are still selling them: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/topeak-turbo-morph-with-gauge/
