they really are very organised. They've got 500 active volunteers, the most amazing second hand furniture and clothing operation, with five shops in and around Brighton. I'm hoping they'll take over the CTC

How did it go Doctor?

 

[dellzeqq]

fine - I really concentrated on building confidence and suggesting (cheap) improvements. And moving brake blocks away from tyres.

what do you think?

Touch of the Milton Glasers there, with perhaps a bit of Jim Phillips for good measure, coupled with French 20s mystery and robust sihlouette. Not constructivist, more a case of CTC-er not used to riding with a titfer as protection..
Crappy typeface - you got the job!

I was under the influence of the original - this is a bit better

and, then again, there's this...(needs more than the five minutes I spent on it...

HNY Matt - this one exists for Lushketeers don't forget...

Drank a bottle once...it's banned in Alabama apparently...they thought the toestraps were dodgy.

Going back to Page 1, now that BAA have sold off Gatwick, does the new management have a more enlightened attitude to nocturnal cyclists?

ah-ha! I now know rather more than I knew before. Apparently there is a cycling 'terror' group called No Borders. Actually they're a group that has protested against immigration detention centres, but they did use bikes to disrupt Gatwick. So, when I wrote to the dreadful Amanda Vango she decided that we must be related - despite their not having noticed us being there for the previous four years....

My source, who works at the Detention Centre did offer to intercede on our behalf, but I think the chances are limited. I did think of writing to the new owners - but, to be honest, I don't think we need them as long as the Cabin welcomes us. If the ride exceeds 60 in number Gatwick doesn't work anyway - just getting in and out adds 20 minutes to the journey, let alone the ridiculous queue for Slowa Coffee. We're far better off using the Scout Hut.

Tsk tsk - saboteur cyclists.

In fact thinking about it, I had gone wandering around Gatwick with my bike at 3 am about a week after the airport was sold and no-one batted an eyelid.

Anyway, as you say, the alternatives are better.

'Tippex' Clive - of course! HNY to you.

That's no penny farthing - she'll sou...
