Sounds nasty :-( Hope it mends soon.
If it turns out that you can't make it tomorrow, I *think* I have a book with a suitable length route round Pudsey, so we could do that instead (although we'll have to stop to navigate). I'll check tonight and post back here tomorrow.

Thanks for telling us FB. Shame you can't come playing out :-( Does it seem to be getting any better?

Anyways, I had a look through my guide book - there is a route round Pudsey, and it goes straight past the station. 10 miles, medium difficulty, estimated at 1.5 hours.

It's from 'Mountain Bike Guide - West Yorkshire' by Nick Dutton-Taylor. I've not done the route before, but the others in the book have been of a *very* high standard (the bingley bash appears here - I think it's the origin of this route).

Does anyone have any experience of this Route? if so, what's it like?

It seems a bit of a hassle for FB to turn up just to give us a route. We can save that for another time when FB's better!

What do you think?

I'll check back here later on and phone John with the details.

For now I'll assume the meet point is still the same - 6.30pm New Pudsey Station.

Hi guy's. I seem to have buggered the front brakes on my bike (and those of you out last thursday will have experienced my excellent braking skills, as I skidded allong that farm track!). Providing I can get them fixed before 6.30, I'll see you at pudsey too, ok?
Chris.

Brakes? who needs em?

BTW - on closer inspection, the route i've got doesn't go right past the satation - just close to it. Still not far to ride tho...

i squahes the bike into the back seat of my car the other day and now the right hand side brake pad constantly presses againt the rim. I think I can see the problem, but I couldn't deal with it at midnight last night.

either your tensions have messed up (wind in the tension screw slightly on that side, wind out slightly on other side)

or move brake pads.

it'll take 5 mins max.

Hard ride on Thursday night guys - but well worth doing! Thanks

It's late now and the nettles are still stinging after a full bottle of red :-)

Is next Thursday North Leeds night?

Yup, cheers for a tough but enjoyable ride :-)
Thursday's fine wi' me. Any suggestions for routes? Unfortunately we'll have to bear in mind what steve said - nights are drawing in so we'll have to think about pegging the distance back a little bit :-(
or buy some lights of course :-)
