May have a sunday free without kids. Could meet you at Matlock. When you have made your plans let me know what time you think you could be there. Last time we met up, and travelled to Matlock and onto Cat & Fiddle etc. Maybe this time could go over Snake Pass way for a change?

I see no reason why i cant meet you there, I will google it to find out where it is. I dont know many routes to matlock from the southern side mainly from the north, so pick a route I'm sure it will be fine :cool:.

I potentially might no beable to get near a computer again until next week after 5pm tonight, so if any details change (time/meeting place) then somebody please text me :cool:

That's all finished.

I had a ride over that way today (well 2 actually).

I'd like to join you for the ride, but I'll be working flat out on the farm if the weather's decent.

Well, sorry for being absent from the forum for a few weeks, lot of biz and then a couple of weeks in Menorca - luvverly!.

Unfortunately hectic business travel schedule rules me out for the next cople fo weekends. Would love to come along as I am seriously missing a decent rideout.
