Somewhere, probably on the M62, the retaining bolt on the rear timing chainring on M3 vibrated loose, potentially rendering the tandem unserviceable. Alas, unfazed by the prospect of having one less bike, a quick trip by Keith to the local bike shop succeeded in procuring a perfect replacement and, ignoring a 20 minute delay to our start time, all six tandems set out on another superb ride around the Ribble Valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And once again, everyone conquered the 15% gradient out of Grindleton before arriving at Bowland Bikes in Clitheroe for the compulsory calorie replacement exercise. Great service, as always, from the caf\u00e9 team; their locally sourced bacon comes highly recommended. Very highly recommended!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sincere apologies to the stokers who couldn\u2019t be accommodated today. You\u2019ll be prioritised when we return later in the year. Promise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
