If you're not sold on this already, here's a collection of quotes from riders of the years past:

Painful going up, scary going down

Up then down then up then down then up then down then up then down then up then down

Ranmore? Surely it's more like 'Walkmore' amirite?

Details!

You could try asking Velocio, but I suspect you may have to start a new thread.

I thought as much. I’ll keep things simple and on this thread.

Unfortunately going to miss this, I'll be enjoying hill-less Holland.

Oh no

Unfortunately, after tapping the old familial barometer, I'm getting a '50% chance of IKEA' rating for the 28th. I'll probably need to confirm on the day - pending some childminding logistical gymnastics..

In, probably train out.

Sorry to hear, heal up.

Nice job on confusing the list though!

What's that? I still can edit my message just let me know what do you think I should change in it

It’s because you copied ‘iiin’ from seager, skipped rhowe’s update and stayed in the list but marked as ‘out’. I meant it as a compliment though, messy lists are fun :)

You copied Seager's post, so it starts with "Innnnn" at the start, even though you're "ouuuutttt"

Also, you missed rhowe who has reclassified himself from "Oh no" to "Train out".

Other than that all good.

In other news, my attendance is looking doubtful - the misses might need to be away tomorrow at short notice, if so I'm on kids duty plus I've woken up today with a sore throat and commuted as a train wanker - so the five hills looks challenging on two fronts. :(

Obviously... I will be using my own eyes next time

Now sorted. Have a messy burn out on those crazy hills! The weather looks very promising

You made the correct choice

I'm getting the train back from Bradford for this, but will be supper tight on minutes so please don't wait for me!
