July 2017 - Northern Monkeys Meet

[David.]

Now that we've all returned safely from our Tewkesbury adventure, it's time to look forward to the ride out on Saturday 15th July, who's in.

[Paggers]

I'm in. Can you remind me what is the starting time?

[David.]

Can you remind me what is the starting time?

Weather permitting, we'll be departing from Morrisons Café in Wetherby at 10:30.

[David.]

Sorry guys, I'm going to have to "cry off" from this one.

I've managed to cut through the end of my LH index finger with a Stanley knife blade. It's been dealt with at A & E and the dressing needs to stay on for at least 7 days.

That's not a good thing to do. Hope it mends well and quickly.

That being the case, if anyone is still interested in a ride this Saturday (forecast looks ok, 10% chance of showers),I would be happy to do something around the Peak District may be starting in Castleton and finishing over the Strines in Langsett on the A616. A show of hands would be helpful and if there is interest, I'll start a new thread.
Approx. 130 miles, 4 hrs riding time.

I'm up for Saturday

[k9doc]

I have started a new thread regarding a ride for this coming Saturday 15th July.

[simbo]

I would have loved to Chris  8)  I'm off to Wales for 4 days on our annual Jolly boys excursion this coming weekend though    You boys have a good ride


ps. Hope the finger heals quickly David!

[k9doc]

You boys have a good ride

Likewise. We had a great time in Wales. More difficult to pick a poor road than a good one. We also had the benefit of superb (if slightly too hot) weather. Hope it holds for you.

[David.]

Thanks for your kind words guys, enjoy yourselves on Saturday.

[Paggers]

Hope you mend soon. I'll check over on the new thread and work out where the meet is then I can decide if I can (hopefully) make it.

[David.]

Following the unfortunate cancelation of tomorrow's ride on the 15th due to the weather forecast, it's possible that the 22nd may be back on again.

Weather & finger permitting, I'll consider leading a ride out next week on Saturday 22nd July.

Looking back at this thread, holidays & other commitments may exclude many potential attendees.

If there is sufficient interest & I'm passed fit enough, is anyone keen on getting out for the day from Wetherby.

Anyone else wishing to step forward to lead a ride out would be most welcome.

[Paggers]

Unfortunately my bike is booked in for it's first 6k service on the 22nd - the dealer wants it for up to 3 hours (I guess they're busy) so planning to take a loaner and do some local roads.

Tell the dealer you're busy too & need the loaner all day. The bike was purchased for your convenience not theirs.

Which dealer are you taking it too, could always arrange a ride out from there.
