I'll be a git - I've got a thing for the number 8.

I think we agreed on a 9pm start, It was in the original title of the thread.

I promise nothing - but the weather for Saturday is light showers and Sunday is sunny, so extrapolation points to a good night.

Are you bringing cake?

andrewleitch86 Get a Fuji Track

Are you saying that my beloved bike is a cheapo piece of sh1t that isn't worth nicking?

Questions:

1. Who's in charge of 'dis outfit and knows the route?
   
2. I haven't been to the Tate Modern, are we meeting out front, where the arrow is on the route, or somewhere on the Embankment by the river?
   

jonnywilkinson [quote]kowalski [quote]jonnywilkinson you know, tools, cash, waterproofs, spare pair of undercrackers.

Is that yer "Lady-visiting" kit there, jaydubya?[/quote]

yeah, especially the waterproofs[/quote]

More likely the cash...

Scott, whatever happened to the hip bags you were talking about on the way to Dunwich? I'm still interested.

Here's most of the south river route.

See, roads. paved roads. apart from one tiny bit between 1 and 2 miles.

peejay78 is this off-road malarkey going to be a problem?

No.

Apart from one small section, it's all paved and fenced off so no one falls in the river.

Greenwich and Woolwich foot tunnels are open all night, but the lifts won't be running.

Gypsy moth is right by the edge of Cutty Sark Gardens, just past Starbucks, and opposite M&S.

PeterD stompy how off road is that section going to be...should i consider a change of tires? dont want to slipping and sliding and mending punctures all night.
Also MA3K I think the pathways im thinking of stay open as people access their houses from em. May cycle down em late one night this week to check

I don't think it's worth changing tyres. I ride 23s and I can handle the small cobbled bit. The off road bit is short enough to walk if you feel unsure about it - that's what I do sometimes.

Apart from that it's all paved and quite smooth.

millierider i will take a few of yours hands asm on friday. cheers
millie

I'll bring a few along on Thursday if you want.

photoben stompy can you bring some to CW please? I believe I said I'd abuse the post at the mirror and send them to far off places.

Sure. I'll bring them in tomorrow.

Give me a call when you're ready for them.

Unxetas has already ridden this bit with me, but I think we'll be going a bit faster this time.

Bring lights, people. Nice bright lights.

If there aren't too many pedestrians, we'll take the really narrow bit between the river and the Naval college. Then through narrow alleys and back roads to this open aggregate yard (the only place that doesn't have a railing to stop you going swimming.

After that there are some nice wide smooth paths by the Dome where we can build up a bit of speed, then it's alleyways and roads. to the Woowich tunnel.

The aggregate yard is the worst bit.

You can get a Fuji for that kind of money. Comes with a Flip-Flop hub, and nice strong 48/16 gearing.

MA3K Those "riverpaths" (disjointed as they are) will probably be locked after a certain time. I think it is 8 or so.

Not the route I'm leading from Cutty Sark to the the Woolwich Foot Tunnel.

If you thought the off road bit by Barnes was fun, you'll love this.

hippy Thankyou, thankyou, I'm here all week!

unlike your bike

I don't see why it matters.

Its a solution to a problem.

Route, route, route?

dicki and I picked 'em up for redistribution.

hippy I haven't. Pint?

No probs; I carry a first aid kit anyway.

hippy Halfs?

Maybe.

I'm a legendary lightweight - and I've long outgrown the need to keep up in order to fit in.

dt i still have some blue tube left

There's people in Wardour St who haven't been able to have their electricity fixed.

I hope you're proud of yourself?

;-)

iainr73 Ok, having been looking at a couple of the other messages am starting to worry that I may be shunned from the outset.

Less worrying, more riding.
