Saturday, as Speedway takes priority on Sundays.

I can't do Sunday unfortunately - I have an IAM ride booked in.

Don't mind a bit of weather, after all that's why I moved from a GS to the RT. But I agree it won't be much fun doing a group ride if it's pi$$ing it down.

OK, we'll aim for Saturday & take a rain check in the morning, Wetherby looks wet, https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2634217
(I'll see if the Wetherby Weatherman is available for an on the spot update.)

ATM, east looks better than west, therefore Lincolnshire or possibly North York Moors.

I would have to leave home for Wetherby at around 09:00, a decision will be made and posted before then.

I'll need to leave no later than 8:30 to be sure of being there on time. So if a decision could be posted ahead of that I would appreciate it. Nothing worse than riding 1h45 only to find I'm Billy-no-mates.

Good morning, it's currently dry with sunshine & light cloud here at IB, what's it like where you are.
(There are forum members in Wetherby & North Lincolnshire.)
The forecast seems to be for it to remain dry, with sunny intervals & varying cloud levels.
Had the first now cast from WWW, sunshine in Leeds, to be updated later from Wetherby.

It's looking good to go, will post a definite yes or no before 08:00.
(North Lincolnshire looks more favourable than the North York Moors, with planned stops at Goole, Gainsborough & Selby.)
