Took the Blood Blade out for a spin... she's not quite finished yet (waiting for the pannier rack to be fitted then the panniers are being vinyl'd to match) but it was such a perfect day in the 1hr sunshine window I had to stop for a pic or two

Looking at the map... I'd be leaving mine 12pm, with you (Kwaky) 1pm... then at Stow by 2pm. Allow an ...

Re: Blood Bikes
Tried to PM you and for some reason didn't send - the ride out to there for me is pants... motorway...
How about meeting half way between us somewhere like Bridgnorth? Or if you want the longer ride somewhere like Wistanstow?
Or is this ride out location something pre-planned with other people?

That might be my issue!!! Thank you!!!!Blade wrote:Bikesure, Swinton and Aviva have been good for me on multi bike policies.
