Disclaimer

Cycling is a dangerous activity which can result in serious injury or death. All cyclists are responsible for their own safety and must decide for themselves if they are a competent cyclist for the event they attend, cyclists must assess the level of risk for themselves before and during any event, and must not put other people at risk. No assessment of a cyclist's competence is made by the ride leader. Individuals must be able to assess obstacles and decide whether they have the skill to safely ride them. If an individual isn't sure whether they have sufficient skill to ride any section of the ride then they should walk it to avoid injury. All cyclists must wear a helmet and take responsibility for disclosing any relevant medical conditions, allergies and emergency contact details to the ride leader before each event.

Chorlton Write-Up

It was not wet. Only 4 other people turned up to see me lead a ride in the dry and one of them was my wife. Typical. At least Curtis, Lynn and Dave got to avoid the curse of the weather. I pity those planning to ride at Macc Forest with me later in June as we are surely doomed to torrential rain now.

Dave knew the trails round Sale and Chorlton Water Park well and showed us some nice new bits I haven’t ridden before. They may have doubled as footpaths but it was hard to tell in such dry conditions! We all had a nice gentle ride round and marvelled at the nice carbon bits on Dave’s Trek. Then we retired to the lovely Jackson’s Boat for refreshment and to discuss the finer points of a healthy life style. Chips and beer all round highlighted just why we are all such fine specimens.

No one fell off, it didn’t rain and we didn’t get lost. Great ride.
