Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
I'd be keen for an outing generally Mondays would be best. Sometines work is a bit funny so couldn't commit to every week though

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Sounding good. No need for any commitment, just be nice to be more than just me in the dark 
We could do anything from an hour to 3 hours.

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Monday's good for me. Heading out also tomorrow but not until 7.
Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Hi, I'm also Sheffield based and up for a Monday night ride as a pretty regular thing over the winter. Should be able to make next week if something gets sorted. Cheers Mark
Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
(Hi mark).
I'm keen for Mondays regularly. Next week should be ok. Will keep my eye out for location info
This wednesday I'm heading out from S7 area to ride out to longshaw. There's a screening of 'Summits of my life' Lillian journets film about speed mountaineering. £3 I think but need to book at accelerateuk.co.uk
If anyone is interested will be a steady ride 'possibly' taking in some cheeky sections...

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Hi Ian,
What time are you heading out tomorrow? I'm planning to go out at about 7ish, so might tag along with you for a bit if you don't mind and are going out at a similar time?

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Plans are still evolving! But aiming to be at longshaw for 8-8.30
Guessing will leave home 6.30ish. Are you up the hill from me? We can ride past and knock on on the way out.
Yoir details in the dpfr list? Can sort out details by email if you like.

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
How was it? Looked like a nice evening for it but was stuck indoors.
Not all bad though as time in lieu means an afternoon off at some point.

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Fantastic ride, good company, good weather. It don't get much better.
Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Glad that fun was had! I took but some time from work this afternoon and snuck out for a couple of hours in the daylight.
Are you heading out next week? I'm generally keen but organise the Edale skyline gell rave which is this coming sunday so may be a bit too tired by Monday night. Will see

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Morning all,
I take it we're all keen for a repeat tomorrow evening?
Same place, (next to the ladybower on the bamford road). Given the start times from last week I guess we're aiming for a relaxed 7pm start....
So.. 7:15 :D
I'll try to turn up without a flat this week!
See you there.

Re: Regular Peak District Night Ride?
Sorry folks I'm not going to make it tonight, just finished a horrendous run of night shifts.
I would be even slower than last week (yes that is possible!)
Definitely up for a ride next week though.
Have a good one.
