Sunday jolly # 5

[jacks2ts]

Pitstop for 10 " gives everyone time to get there and i can have a full fry :p"
Want to do at least 2 loops of Lords, HT,golfclub run, and then see how it goes :)

[penguinni]

What have you been taking?? A fry and 2 laps??

May I remind you that we are Bap Munchers and dont do things like that!

[Aaron p]

May come along for said fry and the first loop if you can bare me? I'll either be quicker now i have a bike with a granny ring and raisable seatpost, or slower as it is a 7 inch travel full bouncer that apparently is "all mountain" haha!

[penguinni]

Im gutted.

I leave them alone for a couple of weeks and they go all Enduro!

It wont last you know......

[simpo03]

Possibly! new bike is due for collection tomorrow so i'll be keen to get out on it. i'll let you know later this week. should be grand

[flames35]

Count me in Jacko. Will be taking it very easy thou (ribs still sore). Promise not to stir the s**t. Is Mr P. and Marky going?

[Bowdie]

How's young Jack doing?

[flames35]

Still going to be 4-6 weeks before young Jack will be on a bike. I'm not supposed to be on a bike for another 2 weeks but FFS, I can only take so much with Mr.P. doing 4-5 hour runs and all the other guys talking about their runs.

I have to get out. Feel sorry for Drew.

As they say; "GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT"

[Bowdie]

Get well soon both of you :)

[flames35]

See you guys Sunday.

With my rugrats i'm normaly up around 6ish " if not befor" so a full fry's like me brunch type of thingy:)
And the Baps are for Saturdays run this is a Sunday Jolly :p:p

[simpo03]

Are you heading out on Saturday as well Jack or are you just commenting on what food is ur fav on sat and sunday? If you or any others are out on Sat give me a shout

[jacks2ts]

Simpo, cant do this Saturday "rugrat watching" but next Saturday hopefully heading up your neck of the woods + a few hours local on the sunday.

[Bowdie]

I'll be out on Sat & Sun, open to sugestions for Sat - Holywood or Cavehill appeals to me, maybe tolly with a really early start, give bever a wee break. Bapmunchers on Sun. Planning route for the south Belfast epic LOL week after.

[stewartos]

Might tag along with you guys on Sunday.
Been out on the roads with a hybrid for the past couple of years, just bought a mtb.
Used to go up to HT years ago; did the trail down to Helens bay a few weeks ago.
Is it worth including Cairn wood in the trail?

[Bowdie]

I like Cairn wood, but leaves you with a road section to get back to Clandyboye ave. Check on the day and who knows if peps fancy it ... :)

[simpo03]

Sounds good, I'll pencil in Saturday week for a Belfast run and hopefully I'll be able to make it on Sunday for a Bap or two

[Bowdie]

Was up in HT doing some gardening, gave Tesco run and Blackwood a good haircut.

[NIKKI.K]

I think i,m up for this .... what kind of mileage does this jolly cover .

Don,t want to get out of my depth as i,m pretty new to this malarcy .

Cheers

[jacks2ts]

! loop's adout 5/6 miles , wanting to aleast 2 then head off to do the rest , B'wood,C'burn,coastal home, more than welcome to peel off anytime you'll be pointed in the right direction for home.

[jacks2ts]

Found out the missus is working sunday so i have to be back no later than 12, so if anyone wants to come out and do a run earlyer let me know as i am , but still be at the pitstop for 10.

[flames35]

I could meet you at 9.15/9.30 if that suits everyone?

[penguinni]

Managed to cram a few hours today and the trails are excellent!

LW, HT, Forbidden and Blackwood are just perfect. The warm sunny weather helped a bit too! Hard to believe only a few weeks ago it was all mud, snow and puddles!

A splendid day out!:)

[jacks2ts]

Must have missed you as i was up with Andy + Davy just after 1, rebuilt the stream croossing first though.

[jonny397]

[penguinni]

Must have missed you as i was up with Andy + Davy just after 1, rebuilt the stream croossing first though.

Gonna try and get a race up again tomorrow around 1600.

[penguinni]

What a totally marvellous day out!

Trails are just superb and the weather just perfect :-)

Think Ill light the ole BBQ and sup a cold one.....

[Aaron p]

Must agree! Absolutely roasted with my body armour on but just back, managed to lose the guys going down the back of the tower, I thought we were doing a run right to the bottom haha, then by the time I got up to forbidden nobody was to be seen! My guys where there so just did a few runs and jumps and chilled. Very good day but i feel like I have heat exhaustion haha ;)

[thetrailbuilder]

[penguinni]

Yes that was me.

[Bowdie]

Thanks to Marky for showing us and newbies around the Lead Mines and Conlig. Really enjoyed the day out, not hot enought to make it uncomfortable but very Spanish! Didn't crash or fall off but managed to washout the front wheel on the costal path Opps! - those Mountain Kings are a bit twitchy ;-)

[penguinni]

So did the Hangover Huddle make it around in one piece then??:)

[Aaron p]

Haha, I managed fine but slid off with the dh crowd as per usual, maybe when Ive got fitter i'll make it to the crawfordsburn run!

[Bowdie]

We where DownHilling :P well cross between DH and scree running down sidea lead mines :)
The group didn't get down to Crawfordsburn, except me on my way home - it was bunged to the gunnels, you wouldhav had to joina Q to get some sand!

[simpo03]

What a morning for a run out! Cheers for showing us round Mark!

[jacks2ts]

[stewartos]

[Bowdie]

No problem, ur welcome anytime :)

[jonnyboy]

The dog walkers are still at down Blackwood way. Cleared 3 big logs off the trail in the space of 20 mtrs. About 10ish.

[Bowdie]

Cleared some logs during the week too, was on foot cutting thorns back hoping to catch one but some of these twats are out dawn to dusk, and it can take only a min to move a small log into the path. Notice signs on Greenway about sharing trails, maybe pinch a few and stick at either end of Blackwood to scare these twats off!

[jonny397]

That was a great wee run yesterday guys, thanks. Managed to wangle off work next Sunday so more of the same please.
