    Hi Paul,

    It is usually posted in the members section, or in the Members Rides NCR (in the non members section).

    They leave the Waterside Pub, Carr Mill on the east lancs at 7pm on a Tuesday night. I'm sure someone will keep you posted once they see your interest.

    Been out of action myself for a while, but from memory it's a couple of hours and about 11 miles or so and circa 800 feet climbing. It's a great way of getting out with the club.

    If the same crowd ride it that did last time I was out, a couple likely ride up to the start past newton le willows along the canal.

    (oh, and welcome to the club)

      Quite often mikep and sidog ride via the canal from Warrington, which can give you a 22 mile round trip if you meet at the canal at Newton...
      I used to be faster...…...

                          It was all a facade. I wasn't REALLY scared at all!!!

                          (though you are likely right that it was the fastest I'd moved all night, I had a kebab waiting for me at home)
