Not sure half a chicken for lunch and half a cow for dinner was particularly sensible, but it sure was tasty!
Happy birthday, Brave.

Might not make the pub the way things are going here, but will definitely be there for the meat

I had half a chicken 4 hours ago. I just had a piece of tart.

I'm not especially hungry.

So, just roll up at the Blue Posts and look for the group of fixie skiddaz? Hmmmmm

In for a pint. Name the place.

The office is making murmurs about Nandos for lunch. It looks like I'll be having all the main food groups covered today...

I think "the cyclists" all bursting out in unified laughter kind of gave that one to the others for free TBH

Hah! I'm in bed already!

First full month's pay from the new job. See you all at the Sov.

and comes with free Cake

Vid's done

just heading up to lmnf now if anyone's around

Look mum no friends?

So far I have to say that either my Conti TopContacts are quite effectively puncture-resistant, or I'm just a lucky bugger. I strongly doubt the latter

Famous last words - got a stone chipping through the rear on the Ride East on Sunday. Cock.

this looked like an amazing ride, I missed out.

Well, there are a lot more photos of the sunny part of the ride

I want to seek these out, just to give them a try. I like unusual tastes at times.

Mongozo Coconut Beer
Mongozo Banana Beer
Suma Penumbra Stout
Cannabia Hemp Beer
Hollows Superior Alcoholic Ginger Beer

They may all be nasty, but then again, I may find something I like.

The Coconut one you can definitely get at the Porterhouse. It's sickly sweet. Not sure about the others. They also have a chilli beer which is foul (and I like both chilli and beer).

try the Belgian Guinness. it's an acquired taste.
but then so is Gueze

lovely stuff you just have put the thought of bile/acidic sickup to the back of your mind.

Lambics are some of my favourites. The Fuller's reserve has a bit of a sourish twinge to it which reminded me of them IIRC.

The Mariage Parfait is a good once to make your friends wince. I can't get enough of the stuff.

was it just me or did we lose a whole load of people after the ferry?

Yeah, there were a few incidents from a ruined chin (upstart) to quite a few punctures which spread the group out. My flatmate's fingers were about to fall off so he bailed just before the O2 and took the foot tunnel to get back north. I did the same after going around the O2 - cold and wet and I'd used my spare tube. Didn't fancy tempting fate.

Good ride, the random sand made it interesting!

Best bit, and to think I only cleaned the bike yesterday!

Great day - thanks a lot to MA3K and also to the guys who stayed to make sure us tail enders didn't get lost. Had a bit of a stack myself - won't be shaving until the chin mends...

Good to see you weren't put off by a little scratch! I heard you guys going through the sand - sounded like you were having 'fun'.

PMd. Thanks |³|MA3K great ride. Lots of new places for me

Hope you either got to where you were going or caught up with the group after me and chris bailed at the foot tunnel.

We rode through it and got a nice friendly ticking off from the lift guy. Finally got to have my fry-up breakfast at about half 4.

That was my vague plan, looking at map it looks like turning of and heading past the East's pub might be a good route to go

it does, but unless you know the roads it's a total nightmare. Got an errand to run beforehand so see you lot at the park

I'll be heading through there on my way down

What route? A10?

Anyone else riding from Stokie who knows their way through the quagmire of one-way streets between Victoria Park and Homerton?

a happy story from se3

found a lovely bike just leant up against a lamp post the other day, so took it home and left a note. then called the police, described it and they said it had been stolen, and it went back to the original owner! zing!

Did they point at you yelling "it's him! It's him! He took it!" when you returned it?

Had some of this at The Banker a few weeks back.

Very sweet and quite tasty - more tasty than their 1845, I'd say.

Not sure it was worth the £7.50 though.

Full jacobs is a good solid meal

good news

BBC don't know their arse from their elbow when it comes to weather.

Could be a little damp later on

So far I have to say that either my Conti TopContacts are quite effectively puncture-resistant, or I'm just a lucky bugger. I strongly doubt the latter.

That said, they seem like a lot of hard work and they suffer the same problem I've seen from every single Conti tyre I've ever used. The sidewalls are shit.
