Remember when nobmob rides were social?
Remember when we stopped for a beer at the look out?
Remember when we could take the mickey out of ourselves or others without being censored?
Remember when we waited for the slowest rider at regular intervals?
Remember when we had a chat and a laugh along the way because it was about the journey not the destination?
Remember when we were part of community and we all had a say what happened?
Remember the time we were out till after 11 because we did wait for the slowest?
No, well nows your chance to find out.

This is a social ride, a chance to find out what riding with friendly people once was like.
We'll be starting at the shops but never fear we can move to the Tavern after the ride if you so feel.
Bring a beverage of whatever kind takes your fancy, to enjoy at the lookout.
We will be waiting at the usual spots for the last rider to join us. I will be sweeping so if you want a chat with me then cruise at the back. If I get to a usual regroup spot and people have ridden off without waiting then the route will change and those ahead can spend the night waiting at the next stop for people that won't be coming. ( Get the idea? Eye-wink)

Its also a good chance to spin the legs after the fun of the Mont.

So, if this sounds like you then put your name down now and come and join us for some social fun, no anti-social behaviour or attire is welcome.

Don't worry if it fills up and you still want to come. I'm sure we can post a second ride leaving 5 mins later Eye-wink

I don't.

I'd be happy with just a light on my handlebar. I don't like the one on my helmet. It gives me a headache.

Anke, I'm sure we can jerry something up, either zip tie, electrical tape, bluetack, super glue, or spot weld the AY-UP bracket to your bars.

So come on down.

"I really don't like putting something in my mouth or in my stomach unless it's warm..." Anke, about 8 o'clock pee em, at the look out.
Priceless.

Had a blast last night - thankyou to you all.

Riding part of the way back sans lights was awesome.

thank you all, it was just SO nice to have the fun atmosphere back again with everyone talking and laughing as they rode along...and also to have some of the 'original' 'roid boys turn up too!! I have missed riding with you guys!
And how good was the lights out? Thank you Craig for that!
Anke deserves an award for remaining so good natured on her second ever night ride with a couple of spills...

It was my third night right clipped in. The first one you were cycling behind me on the single trail in TH - remember that? You ask me how I was going with the cleats and next thing I was on the ground Smiling Stuart could hear us giggling at the bottom where he was waiting.

Well, it was a wet and cold ride back to the cars after my final fall last night Sad

Thank god for selective memory. It was all forgotten this morning Smiling

Cycling by moon light is magical!
