Day Trip - Peaks: Sun 19 Oct
I am planning a ride for Sunday in the Peak District.
Dependant on the weather I was hoping to do Edale, Mam Tor and perhaps even Jacobs Ladder.
This is the very pinnacle of mountain biking and should not be underestimated.
Details to be confirmed but I am hoping to start at 10a.m (which probably means 10.30) and will start form Hayfield.
If the weather is poor we will have to do a more safer ride as J.L is tough even in the dry!
Watch this space for more info.

PS If there is enough interest there may well be a road ride planned also for the Saturday (the day before)
Cheers!

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Jacob's Ladder bring it on!
Have you ordered the horizontal snow BG?
Guy's JL is a Great British Classic. Very well worth doing!

Count me in! Well up for this one.
Will try to get some degree of fitness back in the comming weeks so I'm ready for it.
What's Jacobs Ladder anyway? Seen it written many times, but never knew what it was
