    That is just the visible bit.

    Remember what they say about icebergs...

    Will get a full itinerary up, but spread the word folks if you are aware of old comrades who no longer frequent the forum.

    OK people, opening post amended for route details.

    And in answer to some common questions.

    Yes, all timings are for the evening, not the morning.

    Yes, the ride is on Friday, 26th April, not the Friday before, or after.

    No, you do not need to know anyone to come along, as this could be the friendliest ride on the forum, and a great way to meet friends old and new.

    No, you do not have to drink Guinness and all fellow travellers will be welcome.

    I am hoping to persuade one of our resident design gurus to design a spoke card, to be sold for an outrageous £4 a pop. All profits to the forum, or a charitable cause, choosen by our leader, without whose tireless efforts, this community would not function.

  • What is this about "last" Guinness ride?

    The phrase is Good Things come to those who wait, not all good things have to come to an end!

    Probably something best to discuss face to face, but we have had a good run of no "serious" injuries, other than OneLessC's chinos, and no interest from the authorities, and I am nervous about chancing our luck too often, and too openly.

    So, not a definite end of an era (man, what an awful phrase) but if "get $#!tfaced on a Guinness Ride" is on your Bucket list, and remains unticked, don't let Friday, 26th April pass you by.

    Oh, and did I mention protective foam head gear?

  • Good to see the Black Lion make a repeat appearance. It'll be a challenge for me to get up there and sink a pint before the scheduled departure time, but a challenge I am willing to rise to.

    I would also be willing to help with the navigation back out of the auld country so long as you can put up with my slightly chaotic navigational system, it's generally a combination of Douglas Adams' zen navigation and "oh that looks like a nice road".

    That will represent Garmin like efficiency compared with the usual efforts.

    We will have the pint being poured, like Paolo in the swimming commercial, awaiting your head long charge into the bar...

    Need to add to my collection of spoke cards.

    And get drunk.

  • I will happily navigate everyone from Kilburn to Filthy's, on one caveat.

    I know the way from Highgate to Filthy's and from Kilburn to Highgate, not a direct route and likely to incorporate Swains.

  • spoke card

    check your email

  • I go past the black lion everyday to work at ucl. I can lead people down back roads that far...

  • No, taking 30 drunk cyclist through the Euston Underpass is a much more entertaining plan. (Not that they will be that drunk after 1 pub, perhaps we can do it again at the end of the evening).

  • its a strava segment, makes sense.

  • why take longer to get to the pub?

  • why take longer to get to the pub?

    Logic on a Guinness Ride?

    "Get behind me, Satan."

    Ok, so I'll be there in spirit (hah!) but I'll find a pint here in SF. And even ride my bike to it. Someone keep a spoke card for me and post it out here :)

    Hahaha I should put all the previous spoke cards on for this night, and really confuse the locals

  • And the hat... don't forget the hat.
    (You're still in London didn't think you'll ever leave)

  • hmm I didn't bring a decent hat with me :S I'm sure I can find one

  • check your email

    Excellent spoke card mister, many thanks.
