Club Run Report - 28/12/2008 - present were Alex Millman, Doug Tomlinson, Craig Newton, Craig Johnson, Robert Bradby, Morris Legood, Andy Cropper, Harry Dixon, Phil Rounding, Derrick Milner, Les Dawson, Martyn Bolt and Paul Brierley.We set straight off up Hopton Hill which was very tough on the legs on a very cold morning, at the summit Bolty’s phone rang which turned out to be Brad saying he’d had a puncture (the considered opinion was he’d slept in but I believe you Brad !!). We continued at a slower pace over Grange Moor then Emley Moor where Brad caught us and then on to Shelley Garden centre where we met an old friend Andy Cropper. We then proceeded on the back lanes through Cawthorne and Royston to NewMillar Dam where we stopped for lunch and met up with Harry, Phil and Derrick. The route back was over Woolley Edge, down to Scissett and back over Grange Moor to home. Ride was 48 miles, average speed 14.7 mph.Hope to see everyone on New Years Day - even if you’re boring and not competing (Doug), it would be good to see everyone supporting the event and joining us for a drink at The Old Colonial afterwards.
