you hyper....never 😉

nice pix RD - it was great to finally chat to you properly 😀

It seemed like you all had a great time, wish I had come but I am not single unfortunately. Maybe I should sort that out then... :p

Forget about the pictures we want the gossip. 🙂

I was planning to come but managed to miss my train by 1 minute. 🙁

I did eventually get to Swinley - an hour late - but of course I had no idea who to look out for! But from those photos I can see that you guys were entering the picnic area at the discovery centre just as I was leaving. I guessed it might be you since it was the only group I'd seen all day with more than 1 female!

It might have been for the best that I missed the group ride anyway - I discovered how unfit I am and was done in after an hour and a half.

Hopefully I'll make it next time though.

jumping out on your aleigh was funny as **** 🙂

I'll post my photo's once I get access to a broadband connection!!

nice to meet you grahamh too 🙂

only 14 pics ?? That's tight 🙁

Watch out for the ninja diabetic!

Good to meet everyone. Good company, good banter and good trails.

Dez took some pics too.
What happens on a STWswingltons ride, stays on a STWswingletons ride.
I, myself enjoyed the hot chocolate at the cafe alot. Thanks to bananaworld for his routing , all good fun.

ninja diabetic....addicted to kendal mint cake

Was it a ride for single gay men?

yes

Dammit 😡 I'll have to make the next one

Ah, that explains all the beards!

sorry I missed it. Glad to see plenty of smiles in the photos 🙂

some of the riders we saw were ****in miserable.
if you can't smile when doing your choice of leasure i think it's time to find something else to do 🙂

sorry I missed it. Glad to see plenty of smiles in the photos 🙂

Is that a Ti 456 in the posted photo? Damn! Even more peeved I missed the ride now. I'm giving serious consideration to one of those and a chance to try one for size has now been missed!

its a litespeed kitsuma

Not a Ti 456, something much nicer.

i cant believe the litter around though

I agree, it was disgusting. Why can't people just clear up after themselves?

Ah cool, I feel better 🙂 Thought the top tube looked a wee bit too curved.

Well, what a day! Having spent a sleepless night worrying about this - ie would anyone turn up - it turned out really well. Thanks for coming along everyone, it was good to meet some new faces too 🙂

Swinley wasn't at it's best, far too much mud and disruption to the trails 😥 Oh and please keep it to yourselves that I led you down a trail that was blocked off!

Thanks to bananaworld for leading the fast group in the morning, he did a sterling job!

Ti was in abundance today including two bikes from the same manufacturer. Note to rOcKeTdOg - why wasn't mine in a pic cos she's such a poser, unlike her ugly rider 😉

To those who missed it - bad luck.

i have written to the crown estate about the litter. who ever is responsible needs to be held to account!

Why is this in the chat forum?

Anyway, I'll get my few pics uploaded soon, after I've taken the sick dog out.

I'm not single and I survived 😉

I missed out but will be on the bike next week.

litter is very democratic. Anyone who favours it can do it, and anyone who doesn't can pick it up! And it creates jobs...

yeah loads of job oppertunities on mtb trails

[i]jumping out on your aleigh was funny as ****[/i]

you didn't scare me that much you know......!

heh heh heh

I like it when people hang free inner tubes in the trees...

Forget about the pictures we want the gossip.

Gentlemen never tell tales, don't you know that!

But seeing as none of us there could be accused of being a gentleman I'm pretty sure...

Well, it was a riot! Swords were crossed, battle was fought, with the final victor successfully staking his claim to the prize of a date with the lovely C_G and Aleigh, together!!!

Bet you all wish you'd come now eh! 😉

Here are my few.
