Actually we didn't really approach a steady teacake pace, except up Froggatt.

A reminder to people: You can only ride with us twice without paying and filling out forms. That means I'll bring membership forms to the rides and you need to bring £15 - If you have already signed up and paid you won't need to do anything.
If you would like to pay by cheque, please make it payable to 'The Union Of Students Sheffield' and write XC 3300 CYC on the back.

Next Wednesday (13th) the fast road group will be riding up to the top of The cat and fiddle. It is 66 miles so please bring plenty of food/ energy/ water and check the weather forcast before hand. Remember always wear a helmet! There will also be a slower ride that will do a similar route to this but around 35 miles.

I'm going out for a 3.5 to four hour ride tomorrow at around 11am. Anyone want to join me? I will take out the slower group on wednesday and we'll do a Crich / via Gellia / Beeley route on wednesday at 2pm. It is 65 miles but flat(er) than usual but we can always come home on the A6 and miss Via Gellia. It will be cold so wear appropriate clothing and you may want to put lights on.Hopefully the faster group can do a similar route if anyone else knows how to get to Crich. ;D

That looks like a perfect route for me to pop in to Matlock and test out these 2 hills I've got to do next weekend so I will be up for doing the same/similar route with either fast/slow group.
Definately going to want lights if we are doing a 65 miler.
