Hi People,
Right, who has got a bike and wants to lose weight/build stamina? Am thinking seacombe ferry to new brighton and back just for exercise and meet WIKI friends. (NOT A RACE!!!!!!).Lets say every Friday at the ferry 6.30pm just for a ride. I am up for that BUT GOT TO WORK AWAY IN EDINBURGH FOR 3 WEEKS FROM TOMORROW(wednesday)so maybe someone can carry this on from friday or give me your names and in 3 weeks we can do it, bring the kids and bikes. all welcome just cycle and ride, free exercise and fun and meet.
Who is up for it????
PS. if you smoke like i do get ur last smoke in at the ferry till u get back to seacombe (Just a thought, want to pack in aswell and get fresh air into my lungs)
Mike N Charlie, who is up for that????
Sounds good, I just need to get back on my feet.
Thanks for the reply,
Just a leisure ride each week thats all. Get the kids cycling and us adults lose some weight at the same time
.
I might be up for it
i dont have the time But . . .
I bought a bike in June.
And in 12 weeks cycling to work 4.5 miles each way i lost 2 stone in weight.
Its great fun, once you get your arse trained lol
Shame this idea didnt come up in June as i done the wirral way a few times from moreton to Park Gate about 20 miles all in.
The beauty with the the front water front its all level no hills to worry about.
Good Luck with this its a great idea.
Come on southern put your name down,
away for 3 weeks but give us a positive and will start this in 3 weeks friday 7 oct unless someone wants to take it over this friday (16TH)and i can come back to 20+ peeps riding , that would be good. Am in Prenton and can help with transporting bikes and peeps (local)to seacombe.
Mike
You won't believe me but I can't make the 7th
.
I got rid of my 'mountain' bike earlier this year and have a tatty fold up one now that I love. I did nearly 15 miles from Llangollen Aquaduct along to Horseshoe falls back in the summer and a circuit of Llyn Brenig (10 miles) a few weeks ago. Nothing fast just plodding along taking in the scenery - love it!!!
Mark Thankyou for your input,
I agree with the rash..LOL
But it is GREAT for losing weight and getting fit Ladies,Gentlemen and children. Please come on board and dont be shy, lets get something going here ...loads of bikes on wirral, something to do for an hour or two keeps the kids off the streets no traffic mostly street lit and as mark said FLAT. Dead easy ride.
Im up for this, sounds great. Need to lose some weight & this would be a fun way of achieving it.
Hi Pepperhead,
Will be away as stated will you take this on or will you put your name down for the 7th of Oct??
Cheers Mike
Weekends are better for me if anyone fancies that then I'd deffo be up for it
Once you have a date time and place post this in up n coming event. I would recomend a week before your date or it could fall dowm the list.
If the weather is good I may try and make it. But a second food for thought is that its already dark at 8pm
See bottom right forum island giving you sunset and sunrise.
this sounds like a good idea can't do Friday as my son has footy training. Weve just got new bikes and have done seacombe to new brighton & thurstston to west kirby
Hi Mark,
Did state 6.30pm this friday 16th of sept at seacombe ferry the evening light would be good at that time, but alas i cannot be there. If no one wants to take this on then i will be happy to rearrange this till the 7th of Oct and i will be there with my son Charlie.
Cheers Mike.
What a great idea,will join you as you pass Vale Park,just say when!
Okay this SOUNDS like a good idea but weekends are coming more popular. PLEASE suggest ..
Saturday or Sunday..AM Or PM?
Just an idea which sounds fun and get a bit of fitness for us middle aged Persons (ME ANYWAYS) It's just a ride for about 3 miles and get the saddle sores out of the way LOL.
It just for fun and to get exercise and the kids to get somefresh air.
Cheers all Mike N Charlie
My preference is a Sunday around 11 - ish ........ work up an appetite for Sunday lunch.

Sorry i missed that the time.
I couldn't have made friday at that time anyway.
Sunday morning has my Thumbs up but i'm not saying i could make it but would like to as i would have to cycle from Moreton to you guys. Keep this rolling its a great idea.
If it's ok I will join on Sunday.
Mark if you want I can meet somewhere near Moreton?
Does anyone fancy making this a regular thing? Weather permitting of course! Weekends or even the occasional weeday afternoon? I'm sure there are a few golden cyclists who would enjoy a leasurely ride if not a partial one from the Eggy and back, and then a meet up? Let me know!!! Regards Jess
