A beautiful day and a great route from Craig. We all set off at a fair lick up to Beeston Castle and to Malpas via Gallantry Bank. On the way out of Malpas Craig called a right which only four of us on the back of the bunch heard – the rest of the riders […]

Club run – Wheelock
We were no fools today, taking a nice route out through Goostrey and through the lanes to Wheelock. Expertly led by Woody, who we think was still hankering to chase up to Mow Cop (even after last week) by pulling in some of the Cheshire Cats earlier lanes. One of those fine days where you […]
Cheddleton and the mystery of the alpaca...
A Craig-inspired adventure today, over yonder hills to Cheddleton. We had a good group out and they set a good pace out past Congleton and Astbury – and then the climbing started, on occasion along the Cheshire Cat route – and didn’t stop until we finally reached the cafe – which was very nice, other […]
Two Mills Sunday 18th March
Well this was one way to spend Mother’s Day I suppose! We had a lovely day of it – warmish spring sunshine, clear blue skies, daffodils in bloom and a sense of summer on its way. We had a good sized group and were led very ably (if slightly sadistically) by Julian, off up to the […]
Llanberis – Day 2 continued…
What a fantastic day. After the gathering at the start, of eager(ish) souls all trying to still digest their breakfast, we waited for the go. Whilst we were waiting, we were treated to up-close scrutiny of Kev’s nice new red (pink) handlebar tape. Which I believe is now for sale on the forum… (http://wvcc.roflforum.net/t954-free-pink-handlebar-tape) As […]
Day 2
..and we’re here!
Well, the field arrived at various different times, all on one piece. Now at dinner, with an excellent looking menu. All went well on the ride, with most needing no assistance from a ride in the van. There was one reported incident, as yet unconfirmed by evidence, of a rider holding on to Dave Hinde’s […]
..livin’ on a prayer..
..and we’re ready!!!
Dagfields (Short Ride) – 19th February 2
Well the week long wait and the daily grind at work is all worth while when you have a club run like today. Despite a chilly, and in some cases according to the Winsford division, a slippery start to the morning, the sun was out in full force and by the return ride home the […]
I think I can still see Alan and Dave
Alan S left on the short run announcing – we’re off to Two Mills, the long run can go to Holt or anywhere else they want. We all looked at each other – I stupidly said we could go via Summertrees and the Candle Factory and then round the back way to Holt. Fine said […]
To Prees and back
Sorry about the dark photos – young Titch is studying photography at Mid Cheshire so clearly we need to get him to take them in future! The reason the top one is so bad is because the sun was so bright and was directly behind us – so it doesn’t give any idea as to […]
