Anyone fancy going to Garth this weekend? Current plan is for everyone to go to the ice cream farm, but I fancy something longer given that the weather is likely to be good.

Everyone seemed to enjoy the route that Craig took us last time, and the cafe is very good with a nice climb up to it.

Happy to lead out, following the previous 88 mile route.

we can "knock knock" the Brytons and negate the risk of peleton carnage and getting lost again... 🙄

Kris, do you want the route back that I took, save you coming back the same way. Goes through the wrexham industrial estate and Holt.

It's a bit of an animal! Definitely check your brakes before coming out on this one...

this is a stonking run. make sure your bottles are filled. the climb in and the descent out are amazing. lets hope this ride is a little more organised and flows a little better than last time?

If its a nice day you could always push on and lunch on top of the Horseshoe, now that's a climb 😈

Happy to go on up to the Ponderosa if everyone feels like a few more hills 🙂

Put an additional route together - extra 8 miles and 1200 ft of climbing 🙂
