Notes:
The best ride so far in the snowy conditions (sorry boys it even beat the dentists descents) as it was so rideable up and down hill.
Seasonal visit to Chapel under the guidance of Rev Butty.
Bizarre singing by Rev Butty of dodgy French “Charles Az-no-voice” tunes.
Eric friendly numbers allowed a seasonal dispensation to be granted…for cheeky mini-forest singletrack descent near the end of the gritsone trail bit.
The Vale was warm, welcoming and full of joyeux sights, beer and good nosh
