Hey Sports Fans,

"The King is Dead, Long live the King".......

I'm honoured to be writing the report that signifies a new dawn for the Migglymoos. With no Scrippsy (this is the last time he's being mentioned because in my eyes far too much is being made of the senile old git!!) much of the cycling world has been awash with furious debate of what the future holds for the most prestigious cycling clubs in the Northern Hemisphere (it would be unfair to compare us to our antipodean counterparts the Rigglyroos). It is with great joy that I can report following Wednesday's ride the club has never had such a bright future that will surely silence all the 'doubting Thomases'.

A great turn out that included two rookies (Johnsey & Russ) that are week by week becoming part of the furniture. With nobody chosen to lead the weeks ride it was left to Skipper to take the bull by the horns and led the herd up through the woods, where the first casualty of the evening was Dickie who apparently had to turn around because of mechanical difficulties!! I'm not so sure readers. Moments before his exit, a few of us heard the faint sounds of what appeared to be the local ice cream van making one of his last stops of the summer, and this subsequently was a temptation that Dickie could not resist.  
 
As the herd gathered following some nice flowing single track, it was quickly apparent that we we're now minus not 1 but 2 Moos. Johnsey had indeed gone missing in action. Shouts went unanswered, and it was the great Rivaldo who volunteered to check out the other viable route that he may have taken and agreed to meet us at the bottom of the Quarry run. Having completed the Quarry run, Riv returned a lonely man and frantic calls were made to Johnsey's wife as well as anybody else that knew him, but once again to no avail. But have no fear readers, the Moos very much like the US Marines ensure that "no man gets left behind" and thus, re-traced their steps to where Johnsey was to be found at the top of the Quarry Run (to be honest it was easy finding Johnsey, because its the 3rd time he's got lost, and like the homing pigeon he is always ends up in this spot!!!!)

Following the drama of the missing moo, the collective took a well deserved break at the Maenllywd, where hot topics of current affairs and world matters were discussed and none more important than "what is the best sports theme tune of all time?". I won't reveal the outcome as I'm really interested to what the opinions of our readership are, so please send your answers on a postcard to...

After a longer than normal stop at the Maen, an excited bunch made their way through the woods on singlespeeds track, where one of the more esteemed and respected riders Harty prophesied "there's going to a serious accident" and do you know what................................he was right!! As I can exclusively reveal Sports fans that following a tumble on the way home Dai Eye has broken his wrist.

Not only has this led to Dave taking his first sickie from work in 20 years, but he has just ripped the bathroom out hoping to put a new one in. So without further a do Moos a call to Arms. Anybody who can offer their services in re-fitting a bathroom Mrs Eye would be eternally grateful.

Yours in Crashing

Stunt.

Next weeks ride will be taken by Harty (somebody let him know!)
