  • Hello

    Hi,

    I'm Jonny, Train Driver from Golborne.

    I've joined the FB page and saw one of your lads up Rivvy today.

    I lived in Stockport until about 6 months ago so most of my riding was the Dark Peaks, New Mills, Jacobs, Hayfield etc.

    Now I'm in Golborne I mostly go to Degla, Rivvy and I like Phillips Park, Prestwich (not Clayton Vale). I do a lot of local riding, but I do get bored plodding 30 miles alone on the flat.

    Just fancy finding out more routes and meeting a few new people.

    As a shift worker I do struggle to find time in the evenings, so hopefully there are a few people who are about at odd times too.

    Can't wait to get out with new folk, I ride a Cotic Soul, best bike I've had, and there's been a few.

    Welcome Jonny. I’m sure I recognise that name from singletrack. Quite a few lads work shifts so you shouldn’t have a problem finding someone to ride with. Easiest way to join the club is to join the skyride on a Tuesday evening from Carr mill dam. Probably see you out soon

      That sounds good to me, I sometimes cycle from Golborne to Carr mill. Where do you go from there?

                    Welcome Jonny!
                    I only started school in 1982 and you leave me for dust dave!!

                    Skyride usually involves a ride up to billings lump mate, and a play about in the woods.
                    About 2hrs and 12 ish miles. 25-30 for you if you ride there and back. Finish with a pint at the waterside

                          I do a lot of riding towards St. Helens, newton, I live right near haydock and head over towards culcheth too. Never been Howe bridge way, what’s the route?
