A challenge for keen cyclists

[lenny]

I believe Cipro is a keen cyclist, any more out there would fancy the challenge of the Roman Way. The incentive is that you finish off in sunny South Shields,(my hometown), Also home of Arbeia Roman fort'

PS The Drift Inn is just up the road

Here's a pic of the fort entrance, (reconstructed) to the museum.

Nice idear would that be one day event, and where would you stay at the end of the day as I only drive my MH. Two day would be more comfortable. these type avents take some organising especialy one way run

,One day event I did'nt realise you were that keen, I would'nt be able to sit down for a week.
To be honest ,I did'nt think anyone would take me up on this offer,I was just trying to promote my little town, but lets see how it goes

best place to keep them (on the rack) push bikes you end up with leg ache out of breath and they are too easy to fall off after some brown liquid

Yes and legs were made to press pedals
Throttle, brake & clutch I mean, not go round and round

Maybe we could divert to your place for refreshments.(Barnsley Bitter), do they still make it?

We're keen... just not fit enough to do 72m!!!

Just changed our steel 15spd tandem for an alloy 24spd with disc brakes... a tandem that stops, now that's a novelty!

Like others have said, how do you get back to the m/h, or get it to the finish?

Good luck, my son-in-law is doing the London to Brighton again this year, like Garth I think we'll supply support from the following m/h!!

If I'm in your area sometime sort out a 20 mile loop and we'll have ago or if we do ameet like January cromford 7 have a ride then. mountain bike or road would be nice if the weather is better, perhaps try latter on in the year all levels of cycling is good. I always say one hour cycling is better than none
