    i'll check with Bernie and KT Bee.. if we get to six it'll be a good number, i'll ask around souths tonight also

  • Unless Conk is snowed under he's still in I guess.... read the thread Jacob. ;)

    3. almac68
    4. conk (if not too snowed under - work not actual snow)

    And there is a possible KT Bee depending on work.

    And I was always on the list Almac

  • Though if on the day it's anything like your Val d’Isere ride, then I'm out I'm afraid.

    cowers in the corner at the thought of snow covered hills

  • forecast this weekend is a tropical 15 deg C :)
    let's keep the day free, if weather is bad, suggest an alternative..
    or just ride to the pub :)

    also, on the last page, didn't amygdala and spybot say they might be able to come??

    Roberto... Ben has fagged out. says he doesn't think he'll get it off work (i think he asked if he could be in that particular day)

    i'm up for riding in terrible conditions. what a way to die...

    I expected as much....

  • ^^^^^ yep, still in as long as I don't do a major cockup & have to cover my ass.

  • yep, as long as I do a major cockup my ass.

    eh?

    couldn't resist.

  • I'm up for this, vintage jersey and vintage bike. Happy to lead out and have Garmin for backup.

    death to lists...

  • I now have this day off, so might be up for it. Not totally sure yet though.

    comon pete, not ridden with you for ages :)

  • Yeh go on then...

    Plus I may have committed mentally to the Rapha Festive 310 thing, so might need to be riding that day :)

    Still don't understand why they chose 310 miles, what a random number.

  • Yeh go on then...

    depending on what time we arrive I might ride back with you too. Girlfriend has the afternoon off work so I may need to be home by lunch-ish.

  • This is going to be a social ride, isn't it? I'm all for a brisk pace and no big fan of long breaks mid-ride ... but I don't think you can do London-Brighton fixed, in a group, in less than 4 hours - taking into account punctures, faff etc.
