Hi Darryl

I think I will see you at Grassington (seen the road you mentioned on google maps) as if I need to return to the car (whether its physical or mechanical issues) its not a problem for you or William.

See you Thursday @ 8:30.

Hi William,

Your call on what you prefer. If anyone is struggling then we'll just amend the route, I dont want to leave anyone to cycle back on their own.

The route is such that once you've hit a certain point going back is essentially completing the ride as its no shorter than retracing the way you came.

We can see how we are at Hawes (28 miles in) where there are 3 choices:-

1. route back from Hawes
2. Do the Butertubs climb then route back the way we've come or a slight variation
3. Go on past Buttertubs and then you're kind of committed and whichever way you go the distance is roughly the same.

There's also always the armageddon option if you totally blow up to enjoy the afternoon in a Cafe drinking double espresso and readling L'Eqiupe and we'll come get you in the car later.

HI,

Just to confirm - Meet to be ready for the off at 8.30 (I'll get there at 8.20 ish).

Looking like we might get lucky with the weather and the band of rain will have made its way sufficiently south before we head off.

I'll post my Telephon number in the members only section in case you need to contact me.
Darryl.

Looks like the further North you go the better the weather, lets hope so.

Will also leave my phone number in the members section.

See you in the morning :)
