Route;

Rising Sun - Blue Flames firework display - F/Hall - Killy Lakeside - Railway crossing - roundabout where car put orange lights on to allow us to cross road - Gossy Park-McDonalds-Little woods no not the pools - Havanna - Brunton Lane - Great Park - Meldon Park - Alex's very soggy singletrack - Bluebell woods - South Gossy - Home.

Home for 11.00 no idea how many miles.

And Golly's Globules:

Yes, I managed to lead the main group around a lap of some mystical path in the Woods - sorry Lady and Gents!

How many groups did we have at one point?

Tim's and Golly's latest lighting experiment was very successful - Lumens R Us.

Kirsty looks like a pretty competent and confident MTBer on her first run.

Which idiot suggested we had time to do new Woods run at Hazlerigg?

Who hung his coat in the woods and rode on regardless?

Who rubbed Speedy's undercarriage for him after he damaged it misjudging one of his favourite dykes in Gossy? (never underestimate a dyke).
