Ride report: Wednesday 17 November – New Faces… Old Friends
Mindful of the eponymous JRPM factor, I arrived in plenty of time for the Wednesday night ride. As expected there were some newer riders; Jon H, who has quickly got the knack of posting on the forum to check there is going to be a Wednesday night ride, and Ross along for his second ride with the Moles.
Ride report: Sunday 13 November – is it really mid November?
With Matt once again not being out it’s down to me for the Krypton Factor challenge of remembering everyone who was out this Sunday. So with apologies for those missed. A glorious morning – can it really be mid November? – saw another big group of Barrie, Kev, Karl, JohnR, JohnH, BigAl, DaveC, new rider (another) Matt, DaveS, MarkW, Jez […]
Wednesday the 9th – no banana was hurt in the making of this ride

Remember, remember the …err…Sunday 6th of November.
With a few post Bonfire night hangovers, a group of Moles consisting of DaveC, JohnR, Lloyd, BigAl, RayK, JohnH, The “Tandemists” (Amanda and Darren), Robin, Barrie met up last Sunday morning.

Ride report: Sunday 30 October – Classic Leith
After a week of road riding – some of it in very damp weather it must be said – today it was back to the mountain bike for a ride over to Leith Hill. This was to be our classic run from Bookham to Leith Hill Tower which usually packs in a variety of challenges and so it proved today.
Ride report: Sunday 23 October – hold the fat
Golden days in late October with a long ride to Newlands Corner via Blackheath

Another night ride across the North Downs with DaveC, Danny, Kev and Lloyd taking in Box Hill and China Pig

A very illuminating night ride in autumn with the Holy Moses light and racy tyres.

Ride report: Wednesday 28 September – the curse
Autumn takes a back seat as Summer heat returns for a warm evening’s riding.
Noddymoles not Muddymoles!
Sometimes things just don’t go the way you planned as this night ride report shows…
