I'm happy to lead a group Niall

I won't be able to make it this morning Tim - got a mechanical! Have a great ride

@ChrisP.... I have a spare used Continental GP4 season 28mm with a bit left in it. You are welcome to use it until you get yourself a new tyre

Just found a problem with my bike which I need to fix before I can ride again, so unfortunately I'm going to have to back out. Have a great ride.

Me: "Hi Carolyn. I've had a mechanical. I'm fine but I'll need picking up"
Carolyn: "No problem. Where are you? Gawcott? Marsh Gibbon?"
Me: "I'm in a cafe just outside Trinity College.....Cambridge"
Carolyn: "@#$$%^&*"

Just one of the reasons I won't be joining you on Sunday! Have a great ride and good luck 🤞

Hi James....I'll be with you if the weather is ok

Unfortunately I'll be avoiding group rides for now as my wife is having a hip operation this week, so we are isolating to be on the safe side. Enjoy your ride tomorrow. See you all in a few weeks.

Hi Pat...If you still need a volunteer for 2nd ride lead tomorrow I'm happy to do it

I'm happy to lead too if needed

I'm happy to lead a second group too, with the slight caveat that I appear to be suffering more than my fair share of punctures at the moment. If that happens again on Sunday a reserve leader might be required!

Hi Stewart. I've loaded the route and happy to lead a second group

I won't be able to make it unfortunately. Have a great ride, enjoy your bacon sarnies and I'll hopefully see you out on the road over the next few weeks.

Thanks Dick - you've got the job :)
I've set the attendee limit to 12 now so we'll have two groups maximum.

Now that we have more than six attendees, can I please have a volunteer to lead a second group?
Thanks....Mark

Please note the amended route (and gpx file) - due to road closures between Quainton and Waddesdon

Hi Midweek riders…
The forecast for Wednesday looks dry with a moderate SW breeze.
We’ll be heading out for 46 miles via Calvert and Edgcott, to Ashendon and on to the café stop at G&D Quainton at 28 miles where we have a table booked. Then home via North Marston, East Claydon and Padbury (avoiding floods if possible!)
Please remember to bring a face mask and to socially distance when meeting up and at the café.
I hope to see you at the Swan Pool (assembly point B) on Wednesday morning - please tap the Attending button if you are coming along.
Thanks....
Mark

I'd go for The Yurt too

Hi Paul...
Thanks for the advice. I rode the route today (really glad I did!) and it was passable. A little messy on the rise to Paulerspury after the bridge, but ok. I talked to a local who told me they have now finished the works (after 4 weeks). So unless its wet overnight I think we can go that way, but we'll decide tomorrow morning.
There is also a Road Closed sign between Abthorpe and Silverstone. I rode through that too and there is pedestrian access through the works (which are in Silverstone itself).

Thanks for the offer Niall - yes please, and I think we may need another volunteer too!

Hi Midweek riders…
The forecast for Wednesday looks pleasant with a moderate NE wind.
We’ll be heading out for 41 miles via Chackmore, Lillingstones, Paulerspury and Blisworth, and back via Greens Norton, Abthorpe and Silverstone to the café at Whittlebury Bakery (late in the ride at 32 miles). Then a short stretch home via Silverstone and Dadford to finish on Stowe Avenue.

Please remember to bring a face mask and to socially distance when meeting up and at the café.

I hope to see you at the Swan Pool in the morning - please tap the Attending button if you are coming along. If we have more than six riders then we’ll split in to smaller groups before we leave.

Thanks....
Mark
