    Anyone up for meeting for a ride somewhere in North-west England or North Wales sometime this summer? I live in Chester now and I'd love to spend an afternoon on some good roads with some fellow CBers  Smile

    Shall we provisionally say Sunday 14th September then? Despite being the one who posted this I'm actually also fairly busy this month. Early autumn often has some of my favourite biking weather anyway...

    Yeah 14th sep, that suits me fine.

    We could meet somewhere between us all (maybe Knutsford services). Exchange numbers before hand avoid missing meet.
    Im really near jchess so might be a good idea meet up first then catch up w you Glen.

    Sounds good. Let's arrange properly nearer the time.

    In the meantime, I've identified two bits of road that should DEFINITELY be on our route: A494 from Mold to Ruthin, and then B5105 from Ruthin to Cerrigydrudion. The latter especially is incredible. Also A5104 from Corwen back to Chester is good. Some sort of loop including these and the Horseshoe pass would be great. Any other ideas?

    Lads. I'm very sorry to say that I've had to accept a job on Sunday 14th, the day we were planning to go for a NW CB5 jaunt. I work freelance in recording and can't say no to any jobs at the moment!

    Is the following Sunday any good for you?
