Who's there tomorrow then?
Up to now I am going and will see what the weather looks like when I get up!
It looks as though it will be mostly clear

Re: 23/04/23 The Northern Monkeys Meet
Does anyone live at or near Wetherby who could give a "live" weather report in the morning, thank you.
I'm 50 miles north of Wetherby and the forecast isn't good.

My Brother lives 10 miles from Wetherby but he said you need to grow a pair and stop being afraid of a little rain.

Re: 23/04/23 The Northern Monkeys Meet
I will be at Barton, but knees currently not up to a long milage ride out. What time do you expect to be at Barton for 12.30ish, or later?

That could be useful Chris, you'll be able to give a "live" weather report.

If you do go Stu, please post here. I may head to Wetherby only, to "cross your palm with silver".sakm wrote: Sat Apr 22, 2023 2:25 pmUp to now I am going and will see what the weather looks like when I get up.
Irrespective of the weather, I don't want to spend 2 hours riding home from Barton on my own.

Re: 23/04/23 The Northern Monkeys Meet
Yorkshire GS'ers are having a ride out to Wales tomorrow, he probably got fed up of the "are they aren't they" of the RT riders and decided to go on that one instead.David. wrote: Sat Apr 22, 2023 7:48 pm Markus is the first GS rider to drop out due to a bit of rain.
