One of these Sundays before the year is out (and I'm not stuck in work which would be a novelty) would anyone fancy a ride up to Squires from the Midlands area to see what all the fuss is about.   Could cater the ride for all abilities so adjust the start time accordingly and a meeting place to suit, plus we could all get lost together as i dont have a clue where it is once you get up norfffffffff..   Be a nice day out if the weathers ok.   thoughts ?                                                                                                                                                                             

Don't think there'll be any shortage of volunteers from the Midlands to lead you into temptation! 
You say riders of all abilities - just make sure everyone's comfy with motorways and fast dual carriageways, otherwise it could be a very long trek from the Midlands.                                                                                                                                                                             

Well would be nice, i love me bike but always on my own mainly as i work most weekends.

GingerJen is sending me a route off the A1 so at least we'll have a bit of a clue how to get there.

If anyone has the time and wants a good ride without motorways,and goes to Matlock,you could check out Ashbourne,Buxton,Glossop,Snake Pass,Stocksbridge,Barnsley Potntefract,A1M,Sherburn B1222.

It's long time since I've been to Squires so might join you all there. But it's a boring ride down from Durham and there is a risk I might get distracted by some empty, twistiness on the way

You should be treated to a choccie as its your b'day

There is a running event listing on the events calender for Squires so if your going with the 11th Oct you may as well just start adding names
