It may be something to do with the conditions of an anti-social-behaviour-order I fear... or a bit more seriously - to get bums on saddles and get newcomers keep coming back on the clubruns - its easier to keep out of the peaks until everyone has reached a core fitness level - otherwise the rides would split-up on the climbs. The faster riders getting tired of waiting and the slower riders getting blown out of the back! This way -we get a decent (but steady) pace and everyone is happy at this early part of the year. Judging by the size of the turn-outs it looks to be working!!!! |

Everyone is very welcome to come along - plenty of free car parking. The in depth route map is posted on The MRC facebook page - 45-50 miles - back for 12.30.. Big turn-out expected! |

Thommo- Mr Flint is obviously more eloquent than me at giving you a reply. but the offer still stands you are more than welcome to join us and when the group reach a better level of fitness the Peaks might be an option. Is Elton cafe still going? |
