Get one with a laptop thingy, and you can ride Col Du Galbier and all that free handed. Might be pricy though. Too pricey for me anyways.

Deffo there before 8pm. 6.30 to 7ish sounds like what I planned.

Looks like it might just be you and I Pascalo, warming ourselves by the light of Balki's LED.

Well, we can at least have a pint ... I am not sure when exactly I'll be there, as work things here keep me on my feet. Not too late though. You still gonna be there?

ALSO: last time reen said he won' be there, be he held out longer than I did.

Oliver, no worries ... better to heal than to make things worse by overreaching ... I have some rollers that you could borrow if you fancy?

scratch that, off to cambridge to view a tandem. another time.

Is this to make us look even slower, when you burn past us up leith hill as lonely tandem rider in the big chainring?

I might pop in for one pint and one pint only!

No way! You ended up in Dover????

At what point did you think "fuck it, I go until I see the seaside?"

The only shame of the day was the missing of damo and jaygee.

Yup, everyone who chickened out missed a good one.
6pt approves, and since he's the fastest of todays bunch it must count for something:

All pics here.

Akin, this is an epic story. Big respect for finishing that.

Enumeration fail! See you guy in the morning.

Well, metoffice says it's gonna be dry and up to 12 degrees tomorrow, but gust winds of 34mph ... we'll see how that goes, eh?

I think you will find our current (hopefully short lived) government was voted in with quite a bit less than 30% of the vote.
And our current PM (Grabbing Gordon) was not voted in by anyone.

But do they arrest other party member MPs before passing a law that would make him able to pass other laws without a democratic vote like Hitler did with the Enabling Act of 1933?

I am going geared, so does marco I assume ...

I'm there, monday or sunday, rain or not ... whatever goes :)

Anyone seen this stuff in the shops yet? I am keen to give the shorts a try ...

it's looking grim for sunday, weather wise ... so much for the british summer! Already done! :(

sem, which one? The 100? Wanna meet us in south London as well?

Cool, I'll check the map. In the meantime filling in the form and all that. organizer said it ain't too late :)

Yes, sounds like a plan. Do the 100 and get the train that gets there at 8:07 ... So that's Bromley around 7:40? Deal! You wanna collect me in SE15?

pre plotted is fine I guess. Was that a 605 as well?

Pascalo, don't dirty this thread with thoughts of audax.
we know you just want a chest full of badges by next year....
:)

Ha, and I only ever have done one ... anyway, jaygee, any comment on that garmin thingy?

Maybe we should do audax style route sheets, and all have paperclips on our bikes.
Has the Garmin thingy jaygee used last time got a route finding facility?
Maybe I'll get one of those.

The 100km starts at 9:00, and that's the one I wanted to go for.

But you're right, the trains suck that day. Maybe another station close by and then ride?

200 will follow later this year.

It is a bit late. Need to email the organiser once again ... seems to be a pattern emerging.

[EDIT] Just sent an email if it's too late to enter [/EDIT]

BP? As in Brevet Populaire?
