Right guys... nope.. just can't get the time off work.
So happy hill climbing and I hope to see you on the next one..

That's a shame Ian, ah well we shall think of you when we are in the Partridge.

Maybe see you in March if we both make it to the next one!

Sorry to hear that! What a shame that I'll be piling on the miles whilst you're slaving away over a hot desk (or whatever you do).

Got the bike sor'id today, so that's good, front brake now works

 

[Auntie Helen]

BBC weather forecast now changed to rain Oh well, a bit of water shouldn't wash us away!

Try going to Herne Hill cycles or phone them up first.

 

[Auntie Helen]

So topcat1 can't make it what's the roll call of hillclimbers for Tuesday now then? Need to know how many rounds it will be at the Windmill so we all get one in

They might cost a fair bit more though?

True, TBH I think the weather will be ok , a bit windy, unless we are in the lee of a hill might get the odd shower! But don't worry about it.

 

[Radius]

Yeah think I'll just not bother, winter's nearly over now

couldn't sleep, so edited the route for this ride instead! It now takes in my tweeks, the detour up to the pub and I have changed it to encompass the same down hill stretch that everyone enjoyed so much on tdr1nka's bleak mid winter ride.

Their is the link above.

Quick roll call;

So this is the updated roll call. NO TC!!! Still a good turn out.

 

[DJ]

Ok, I am excited about this, I will PM my mobile number to everyone on the list tomorrow, still time there could be some more taker's.

It will likeley be slightly warmer than we are used to at the moment, but there is a chance it will rain, in my experiance though, the weather goes around London . So dress accordingly, even bring your orange hat's if you wish!

 

[Auntie Helen]

Yes, for those of you who haven't seen my thread about my fetching new hat, I shall be bringing it along for photo opportunities to see if any of us actually looks good in it. I know I don't. I'll buy anyone a who allows themselves to be photographed – and the photo to be posted here – in that hat.

Just as a warning, this is what it looks like on me:
