Peak District big Bike Green Lane ride.

[SkyGod]

Tuesday 23rd Of November I`m taking the HP out on the lanes of Derbyshire.
( My Birthday on 24th so have an all day pass)
Weather has been quite cheeky up here recently so I will be sticking to Lanes Suitable for big Bikes and missing the likes of Royches and Chapelgate etc!!

If its your First time Laning this would be a great introduction as the pace will be dictated by the whole group.
No plan to do a set number of miles so it will be a steady day with plenty of stops ( smokers and heroin Addicts relax).
Start off at Wardlow Mires Cafe at 10am so if you want a scoff get there earlier.

Plan on finishing when we are knackered or lose the light.
If no one fancies it I will go by me sen

PM or post here with any questions.

I'm interested, if I'm not working and can get my 640ADV in the van.....no hanky panky though

You can get here Monday night if you want Tim to save an early start and we will sample a few Ales.

Like I said in Morocco though,,,,NO means NO.

Open to anyone else, just bring a doss bag as I`m not letting you animals kip in my best Egyptian Cotton.

Does a 450 count as big?

Your very welcome Rich as ever but I will be sticking to my original post and making it suitable for big bikes and beginners so it may not be very exciting for you.
If enough come along though maybe we can split up and you can take the group on the smaller {gay} bikes

Quite happy 2 tag along Gary -don't need excitement all the time and it's always good to see some familiar faces.

 

[Timolgra]

Just to confirm the RV as it's not my neck of the woods.
Is the Wardlow Mires cafe just off Washouse Bottom road? ta

I'm assuming he means the Yonderman Cafe at Wardlow Mires, opposite the Three Stags watering hole.

 

[MickDB1]

Thats the cafe - It was called Kates cafe a few year ago on the A623 couple of mile N of Stoney Middleton
Butty and a tea/coffee £2

Fingers crossed . . . . if they're not frozen to the bone.
Hopefully see you tomorrow

Just got back and sat down with an espresso. I'm clean again but the steed will have to wait until tomorrow. What a cracking day out, I right properly enjoyed that again. It's good to catch up with familiar faces and lanes, and always good to meet some new ones of each.

It seemed like almost everyone had a go at leading/choosing lanes today except me, thanks to you all and I promise I'll learn my way around eventually. And many thanks to Ian for the well timed jerrycan of petrol.
A damn fine day out.
