Well I suppose it *was *his birthday...

Enjoyed my first visit to Trix last night tho twas a shame to miss Mr PJS. Also, the general standard of tricks seemed to be somewhat higher than the thread intro led me to believe! Not complaining tho, it was great to watch.

Going to try and make a debut visit this tuesday - hope standard hasn't got too high yet as I have zero tricks - it'd be good to learn from some people tho.
@ Pajamas - hope you're around this week dude as it'd be good to catch up.

Pedestrians seem in good mood today as result - some people walking to work with stars n stripes on their backs! Good work - wish I had one of those spoke cards. drivers not any nicer than normal though!

Leavin work now so will see you in 45 BoBoB but I'm sure you'll have plenty company by then.

I'll be down around 7ish ready to perform 'quality control' tests on said burgers. Hoping it doesn't rain in the interim...

I'll be down a bit later - got some round town mileage to do first - track training starts here! I will definitely need a burger buddy around 8 ish!

The best track day yet! Good work people. I need to get some practice in for next season - that and some bigger gears....I think there's an aphorism in there somewhere about a workman and his tools. Thanks Joe for the hard work, and the HH people.

If Todd's got any o'them thar caps in stock tell 'im to bring it dahn the track day will ya teens?

Anyone got a 45t chainring I can buy or borrow for the day?

If wiggle get here with my delivery in time I'll be there too...bet they turn up at 12.55 tho...

HB and BoBoB - let me know where you're leaving from and I could help tow the trailer?

Commiserations Sir Cornelius. There's way too many injuries around here at the moment. Get well soon.

Really sorry to hear this Paul, do hope you're mending fast. Looking forward to seeing you back in action.

Glad the pub did the job - I've spent more than a few hours in that garden...

The ride looks TOO good! Well done y'all.
Can't believe I couldn't do it. Still working. I think my bike hates me now - it's seriously neglected at the moment.

Very sorry to say I can't make this now - it's my final MA hand-in on monday and I had hoped to be further on with the work than I am. It's got to be a weekend of slavery for me!
If you all still want to head to the pub I recommended, the Dolphin, here's a map

http://maps.google.com/maps?client=safari&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=the+dolphin+st+radigunds+canterbury&fb=1&cid=6476615364078892781&li=lmd&z=14&t=m

To get the bikes in the garden you need to use the side gate, which is down a little alley to the left of the pub as you face it from the street.
I hope it's a great day - genuinely gutted to be missing out but I fear it's the only option.

A good programme I thought - though the music was hilarious - it's like they needed to keep reminding us that it was still radio 4 and not an exciting new youth video or something!

Will 42:16 be OK for this or should I be changing?!?

Exactly the gearing I'll be using - I'd find anything smaller too spinny for most of this ride. There will always be hills either way!

Nice one. Having a pub pre-named that we can roll into is a great idea. Which one is it mate?

It's called The Dolphin, 17 St Radigunds St, Canterbury

As I said, I don't recommend we eat there anyway as it's pricey for food, so we can get food first and then hit the garden.

Then I shall make sure I'm dressed appropriately at 11 am tomorrow!

So I was in Canterbury this weekend and visited the pub I have in mind to enquire as to whether they'd be happy to host us. They have a good back garden with a side gate (meaning bikes don't have to go through the pub!) and are pretty happy for us to pitch up there on sunday afternoon 31st. Only main drawback is food - on sundays they only do roasts (and not the cheapest) and utterly refused to allow us to bring our own food in ('It's the brewery's policy etc etc.') So we'd need to feed before hitting the pub. Of course the garden only works if weather's good, and if it is then we could just go to the park anyway with food and drinks from the shop, which would be cheaper.
Opinions? If we are up for the pub I can let them know we'll be there, or we can leave it as provisional.

Radio 4 dj

I rather think Radio 4 would favour the term 'presenter' or 'broadcaster' over 'dj', unless the show was being relayed from an event requiring evening dress of course

I guess round brixton they'd better be sawn-off bells tho?

Object - think I passed you crossing the roundabout junction of Old Ford Rd and Lauriston south of the park about 6 tonight - I was the other black bike going the opposite direction...some kind of stealth symmetry?

Glad no one's talking about bells anymore on this thread anyway...well done teens!
