Nothing like a last minute decision

Afan is a mish. Went there with UKMB (About 20 of us went) and camped the weekend. Was a great laugh...

Note to self: Don't camp there in March!!! On the plus side the toilets are VERY warm.

Haven't been on a ride for a while:(

Would organise one but all my mates are never up to riding a long distance... :/

Might haul myself down to willingham woods (trailblazers/hamilton hill) for a good ride
got to sort my bike before though, not putting up with the chain slipping anymore.!

think a new rear mech and front chain ring is needed!

This thread persuaded any of you to start riding again?

This is my old Ridgeback which I had for about 7 years and used for the 10 mile commute into work from South Woodford to London Bridge each day following the tube bombings a few years back.

I have now upgraded to a Giant hybrid which is now my daily ride on the same 10 mile commute and is much better than the Ridgeback for road riding.

I also live right on top of Epping Forest so like to get up there with my 6 year old son for a bit of a burn when I can.
