Anyone go to Ripley?

Posted on
  • Bagged myself 3 sets of Araya 36 hole rims in black.
    Meant to get some cranks as well but got distracted.
    Took the daughter down on the back of the seldom-used Cove, was quite pleasant.

    Anyone else go?

  • yeah we went - got some nice old campag pedals and clips
    was that you sat on the steps outside?- us with small boy eating cakes

  • I think so if it was my little one playing "ingratiate and cadge" until I removed her bodily.
    Was there with a lumbering white ss/mtb with kiddie seat/ridiculous tyres on it.

    I thought more forum-types would have got down but then again this place had been busted Friday afternoon.

    Saw a few courier associates from the old days but that was about it.

  • If anyone goes to RIpley tomorrow can you grab me a cheapo headset please?
    up to a tenner if its nice, 80s or whatever... Help a brother out..
    KayThanksBye. :-)

  • thank you provenrad :)

  • i had planned on it, but its 4am.. annd i doubt i will wake up

  • Its just off the A-3, near Wisley (most amazing dirt jumps, if thats your thing)

    I never knew about this bike sale though! Will have to go next year

  • bugger...that's up the road from me, wish i knew

  • The only Ripley I've ever been to is Ripley in Derbyshire. It's a quaint little place, down the road is Codnor where the now re-named and relocated Maxine Carr lives; and even further down the road is Heanor where there's reportedly a hefty National Front movement.

  • this one is a lovley little village in Surrey, nice old buildings and old pubs.. and full of posh twats and 4wheel drives. oh well.

    makes a great place for some tow-path cycling anyway

  • Cycled through it on the way to the big hills. Not a bad place. Theres a hotel there called "the cock hotel". Made me laugh when i first saw it.
    Its in Derbyshire though, not the one down south.
