Ha – Andy, I see you are forced to having to trawl through old posts because of my extended break from the blog!

I’ll try and get back into it in the New Year. I think I’ll probably stick to only mentioning significant rides and walks in any detail though. Life’s too short for “Walked to Heptonstall – again” and “Road Ride: Cragg Vale loop #27″!

I don’t blame you. I’m glad that we did the ride, but it wasn’t one that I’d have turned out for if I hadn’t actually organised it!

I’m sorry I didn’t join you.
One look at the weather forecast was more than enough to put me off attempting an epic ride.

Hey Shaun, mechanical problems can happen to anyone so there’s nowt to worry about – we only waited 15 minutes! It’s a pity that your phone was bust so we couldn’t speak to you, but I come from a generation which grew up without mobile phones so I often forget that it is actually possible to contact people when they are out and about. To be honest, I’m not a great fan of being contactable when I’m cycling so I don’t normally take my phone with me. It’s only when other people are relying on me, or when I’m going a long way by myself that I carry the thing. I knew that you knew where we were going so if you arrived shortly after we had set off you could have caught us. You’d obviously had a problem and we would find out later what the problem was.
