    Couldn't spot the hill on the map for that climb, where is it?
    I presume it's somewhere between Rothbury and Netherton, but I
    can't see any hills big enough on the route.

    Looks like a good day out. Mind, I'd save the skyhook for about
    the 140k stage. Tired legs are just going to love that little
    romp up to ryal.

    I suspect it's a glitch in the data, but I'll find out in a few days.
    Aye, I did the Ryals on the 60 mile last year. You struggle up what you
    can see, think you're nearly at the top, crest the rise, ready to work
    up some speed... and see the real top even further up. Bollocks.

    It's not like you are going to miss the house.

  4. I was hoping for a postcode for the shatnav. Never mind, got it now.

    OK I'm cancelling any festivities and garden BBQ. You may have seen the
    consequences of Yorkshire weather on the news and my garden is currently
    slightly under water.

    Tog-Ann obviously you are still scheduled to come collect your darling
    piglet.

    Just slightly ?
    Looks like a couple of feet from the BBC footage.

    That Subaru of his should be good for at least 8 inches of water ?

  8. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, DozynSleepy
    Well, he's told the Doctor it's eight inches.

    I have already made the greatest contribution to the fight against climate
    change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
    go and talk to the Catholics.
