    Will have to miss this one unfortunately, if the Hartside run was anything to go by it should be good for anyone who manages to make it.

    Which works best for the route? no point in northern lads coming further south than they need and ditto the southerners.


    What time are we talking more to the point.

    do we have a confirmed list of attendees - barring nuclear war or similar, I'll be there.

    Have we got a lunch stop or cup of tea and a slice of cake planned?

    what happened. I parked up in Hawes as the first stop as agreed, with a space next to me opposite a car park with a several disabled spots. I thought you'd turn round and come back.

    Waited about 5+ mins and then set off in pursuit, but didn't know where you went. Tried Buttertubs, but by then I'd resigned myself to not finding you.

    Anyway I just made up my own route - eventually ended up at the icecream place at about 4pm. I thought maybe I would catch you there, but alas. Still I can recommend the rhubarb crumble ice cream

    We just got back. We pulled round the corner to the main car park. Bailed out and made our way down the hill. Jon sent you a text on a number he had. Data services wouldn't play to send you a FB message. Once we got to the bottom of the hill you were gone We sent another sms to you to say we would hang around a bit. Had a mooch. Then headed up to the Pass. Took flyby photos of Jon for a while. Still no sign. Then with still no comms by any means mooched on

    Tour De Flippin Yorkshire meant the Tubs weren't much fun. Or Swaledale.

    b*lls I didn't see you go round the corner to the car park otherwise I would have waited longer. I was watching another white SUV trying to park then go on and turn round only to find it wasn't you. I didn't want to go up to the main car park in the first instance cos of your wife as its a bit of a trek for her. Ah well - hope you had a good day in the end.

    Sorry guys - john has my work number not my personal phone. Tubs was crap cos of the bikes and the low cloud making visibility none existent. The run out towards Sedberg was good - its a bit I've never done before.
