For some few years now plans have been hatching for the creation of a bridleway link between Clapham and the Cam High Road. This will be part of the long distance Pennine Bridle Way which will cross the river at Far Moor between the Tarn and Dale Mire Barn. The club has been consulted about the design of the bridge and the ancillary fencing work that will prevent horse riders ad other users from accessing the river at this remote and vulnerable spot. I now learn from the project officer that work is planned to start here at the end of July and continue to around December. There will be scaffolding in the river during the construction of the bridge and this normally tranquil spot will be busy with contractors vehicles and construction teams. You have been warned. I have marked the crossing on the map on Angli Vespers.
Stunned by the quick sale of the recent bargain that I advertised a few days ago a member has emailed me to ask for an advert to be placed for a rod that he has surplus to needs. I can do no better than offer his own words:
Brand new and never even
had a reel onto the rod. (but I don’t know where the warranty card
is)
Orvis Zero Gravity 4
piece tip flex 10 (Genuine not a kit made up by other
companies)
This rod retailed for
over £500 I use a 9ft 4 weight and cannot fault the rod it compares and in my
mind often excels over similar Sage and Loomis specs. This rod is tip action as
denoted by the number 10 on the description. I have no idea just how quick the
action is, but I would suspect it is similar to the sage XP or
Z-Axis.
I would be looking for £250 so must be a bargain if anyone interested.
Contact me if you are interested.
