Forecast is predicting rising pressure for Friday / Saturday so we might have a couple of nice days.

Do we have a route or is it every man for himsel'?

How come you aren't doing it Wallis?

C2C

Hi Fellas, I'll get the 16.23 train aswell seems like a decent time to head off. I was hoping to dig my bike out of the shed and at least have a long ride on it before setting off on Saturday once the tyres are pumped up.

I posted 2 links to this and the Skywalk eWalk last month. http://www.nhpc.org.uk/nhpc/viewtopic.php?t=6495 The big problem with these is the cost! You could buy a new car for the price of the Charly or eWalk. Flight time is 40min with a full charge or so I've been told. Given the option of a flop t...

Was fine the second time i accessed the site.

First time anti virus (AVG) shut the web page down and i did a scan with 13 threats found. This has never happened in the last 3/4 years.

Must have been something on that day????
