Who is coming?!

There was a low turnout of only 5 riders for Grassington, the weather was rubbish so you all made a wise choice! It would be good to get a whole group together for this one though, and make a proper weekend of it.

Sorry Steph... Would be up for that but I've stoopidly agreed to do running event that weekend!

Afraid I won't be doing this one - family get together.....

The weather at Grassington was horrendous, however I felt it was my most enjoyable ride of the year. It was like my bike and I were in perfect sync.

OK I did opt for the middle marathon, as I noticed the two extra steep hills on the full marathon.

I plan to do Ruthin in September.

I'm coming! Suggest we register a bit earlier this time

Spoke to Em yesterday on it and she's planning to come too...

And me !

Hi Steph,

I don't know if I'm too late to reply to this, if I'm not and I'd it would be ok I'd love to tag along and have a bash at one of the easier routes.
