Yes, its that time of year again, its time for the infamous pizza hut/epic ride  !!! For those that don't know it basically involves setting off early in the morning (5/6 ish?) and doing an epic ride (no less!) and ending up at an all you can eat sometime in the afternoon/eve! Details of the route will be going up soon and if anyone has any preferences of where to eat, post them up here. Andy |

I'm easy that late on, but i think it started earlier last time, like 4ish! I remember seeing killer crash on ranmoor singletrack as we could hardly see the was cos it was still dark.
For me, the earlier the better!

Alright guys,
just wondering if your 'epic' ride was suitable for non-hardcore xc riders (like me)? Basically, are you accepting tag-alongs? Bearing in mind my bike weighs more than my car and i'm not that fit.

Yeah, i recon we could accommodate you greg! and anyone else that wants to come along too. I'm anticipating putting a few loops into the ride so people could miss out some loops/take short cuts if necessary (but only if absolutely necessary!!!). 4 o'clock start sounds good to me. We should easily be able to get back in time for the cheaper rates at the all you can eat!!!

Right, here's a suggested route: ranmoor singletrack, stanage, down to bamford, up winhill, hope cross, down through hope, up broken road, around top of mamtor to hollins cross, down to edale road, back up to hope cross, left over and down to snake pass, up to hagg farm, down to cafe, up other side derwent edge, down to cut throat bridge, off to all you can eat?!?!? Thats about the route from last year, if people want to make any alterations feel free. Anywhere anyone particularly wants to go? (Start time will be 4am btw ) |

Any chance of a splinter group going straight ahead and down the rocky descent (the beast)? We'll all meet up soon enough at Fairholmes cafe.
