Weds 6th & Sunday 10th Feb

The turnout for the Wednesday ride was down to 10 today - I can only think that the weather was too good for some of the regulars. It was well worth the mornings head wind for the clear, sun lit views of the snow capped peaks up in the Dales as we made our way to the excellent cafe at Gisburn.
We made our way there over the Moss from Cowling and via Fanny Greys, returning, with the help of a tail wind on the Roman Road to Thornton in Craven, then Elslack and over to Cross Hills. A grand day out.

SUNDAY RUN - Its that time of year again - time for the Silverdale run, unless there's strong south westerly winds its anticlockwise - Halton Gill - Stainforth - Settle.  Main training ride 9am Denholmgate or 9.30 Keighley.   I'm setting off with the sexagenarian section half an hour earlier than the above times to see if we can get as far as Littondale before Mel, Sean and co. come storming past us. Paul Daly's joining me plus Everest Phil (who's successfully applied for temporary membership).
