Ever onward…

On June 21, 2020 By grassupthemiddleLeave a comment

Come August this year it'll be 4 years since we created the blog! 4 years since Steve, Will and I journeyed to Anglesey for a weekend of riding... Still one of my fondest memories. We've ridden lots since then, we've made new friends and eaten plenty of chips! The bike fettling hasn't stopped, if anything …

This mornings ride took the usual route... The usual place, at the usual time. We were, as usual, just ambling along. Discussion included a (particularly good) Francis Bacon documentary, visiting the Leonardo da Vinci exhibition in Manchester, the weeks jazz record purchases and the potential for future rides out to Levenshulme night market...... all so …

The Boss is back! It's great to see him again, fresh from another trip to New Zealand and full of stories to tell. Welcoming him back to the fold this morning... Myself, Tom and Neil met at the usual spot by the canal and got a nice surprise as we were able to meet Steve's …

One idea is all it takes…

2017. Overall, a year like any other. A mixture of good and bad. A new job for me. Another year of parenting and the, let's say entertaining, developments in the life of a little boy with Autism. More fantastic book discoveries... Lots to be happy about and highlights a plenty. From a riding point of …

Turned out nice again…

On November 5, 2017November 6, 2017 By grassupthemiddle3 Comments

A rough stuff ride in search of Charlie (and a suitable breakfast spot!) After a shaky 24 hrs weather wise, which necessitated a few tweaks to the original plan (MTB’s swapped for mudguarded machines) Myself, Steve & Graham gathered at the meeting spot in good spirits. All confident that the forecast would hold true and …

A perfect day…

About a month or so ago I sent a letter. Wanting nothing in return it was sent with one purpose, to say thank you! It was sent to David Warner. The man responsible for bringing the world of one Charlie Chadwick to life ( please see previous post - Pot of gold... ) Charlie’s diaries ( 4 …

The changing of the seasons in Cheshire…

On September 8, 2017 By grassupthemiddle1 Comment

Its early September and its happening already, once again the summer failed to really get going, the odd couple of days of warmth but rarely hitting those balmy evenings that we so desire. Lots of good riding happened (despite failing to get away for our 'un meeting ' ) over the summer month, new lanes …

Early bird special…

On October 16, 2016 By grassupthemiddle3 Comments

Sunday. An 0700 meeting time on a Sunday morning would probably put the fear of god into most people, but the boss (Steve) hasn't been around for the last few weeks - see recent blog posts - so when he put the call out I fearlessly signed up! eager to hear tales of his latest …

Variations on a theme…

On September 18, 2016October 7, 2016 By grassupthemiddleLeave a comment

The Sunday breakfast run, with a twist. Blessed with yet another good weather forecast this weekend, a plan was hatched to forego the usual - over priced coffee and bacon butties - for something a little more continental! with pastries and freshly brewed #campcoffee. A different meeting spot and route were agreed upon, with myself, …
