    Nice bike Mark

    I couldn't risk a compact set up living in these damn hills so use a triple
    (only used the granny ring once though :oops: )

    I'd be up for a ride round the local countryside anytime everyone's up for it. Maybe do Trough of Bowland. Had a look at Whalley Nab the other week; Jesus, the start is terrifying - 25% gradient
    :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

    Sounds good bud - was talking to another forum member tonight who fancies a crack, but it dont have to be serious, not a race, just a few miles in a group - stop for a swifty on the way...

    It's only 21 miles Gary. How many laps are we doing?

    Looks like a tidy route, never far really from suburbia.

    Looks like the poachers is possible on the route, so a good start and finish... might be able to add a country side loop in as well, if we dont wanna do laps - ie out to the Ribble valley or south to Chorley.

    I would be up for that.
