scoobz   10 #1 Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) Due to the Sheffield Marathon this Sunday and the problems there will be driving around the city we have changed the walk . Hopefully it will be easier to get to this one. And its a cracking beautiful walk.  Walk: Wyming Brook  Date: 25th April 2010  Start time: Meet 10.15 for 10.30 start  Meeting point: Rivelin Dam cafe Rivelin Valley Rd S6  Approx distance: 8 miles  Approx duration: 5 hours including stops  Route: Rivelin Valley/Wyming Brook/Lodge Moor/Rivelin  Terrain: Flat to start with, steep climb up Wyming Brook, downhill all the way back.  Parking: On street parking on Rivelin Valley Road  Refreshments: Pubs at Lodge Moor  Toilets: As above  Public transport: Tram to Malin Bridge. Walk to start from there.  Additional information:  IMPORTANT: Anyone joining the walk should be of a level of fitness relative to the walk being undertaken, be appropriately dressed, have suitable footwear, and have with them enough food and drink for the duration of the walk.  * * * * * *  If you are intending to join us on this walk, would you please post on this thread, so we know who to expect..

billysmum   10 #2 Posted April 19, 2010 Dont be put of by the distance of this walk, yes its 10 miles but with it being flat all the way it doesn't feel that long at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
scoobz   10 #3 Posted April 19, 2010 Dont be put of by the distance of this walk, yes its 10 miles but with it being flat all the way it doesn't feel that long at all.  This is also a walk where I can guarantee that we'll not get lost!

scoobz   10 #4 Posted April 20, 2010 Just realised that the rest of the Shamblers organisers are on a course this weekend, and with the marathon being on in Sheffield as well, we're struggling to get the people we're expecting for this one to the starting point. I'm therefore going to change the walk to one that people can more easily get to, which is the old faithful, Wyming Brook. Hippiechick3 will change the walk details later for me, hopefully.

scoobz   10 #8 Posted April 23, 2010 Sorry to have to do this, but due to there only being me available to lead this walk, for insurance reasons, the numbers this week will be limited to 20. As there are already 15 names down, I would urge anybody who is thinking of coming to get their names down as asap cos once we get to that number, the walk will be closed off!

scoobz   10 #11 Posted April 25, 2010 Hope everybody enjoyed this as much as I did - even the rain didn't matter today.
