Default Last rideout for a while?

Seeing as though the weathers getting grimmer by the day, thought i'd try organise a rideout before the clocks go back, the roads become covered in wet leaves and my bike possibly goes into hibernation for some tlc

So plan is for next Sunday (10th) starting from the Boars Head pub in Long Preston and taking in Slaidburn, Trough of Bowland, Ingleton and past White Scar Caves to Hawes, Kirkby Stephen, Sedbergh and down to the bridge.

Linky here

Its just over 100 miles so not going to take all day and takes in some great roads (in the right weather)

Food wise theres Slaidburn not long after the start for the fat knackers, theres always a butty van down trough of bowland way or if you can wait that long then Hawes is the obvious choice.

And for fuel, easiest place is Caton about 30 miles into the ride.

I expect you there Gaz unless you've got tanked the night before again and Nick if hes not being a loser and working.

So, any takers? Smoke me a kipper i'll be back for breakfast

Unacceptable, change plans immediately

Well was thinking of meeting in Long Preston for half 10, throw in time for food and we have tended to stand around and chat **** for a while in the past so could be getting on for 3-4ish by the time were back at the bridge. Any good to you? Be good to meet up even if briefly

I'm going to a friends graduation ball. Don't think I fancy riding the bike in a dress and on that note my helmet will ruin my hair!

hmm I see your point, its 50 miles from mine the start. Would doing the run upto Hawes, stopping for lunch and then you heading home suit you better?

Shmoke and a pancake
