FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast - 16th May 2014, York to Hull

[Andrew Br]

You do realise that the money saved by booking the cheap but later fares means that you'll just spend more money on beer don't you ?
I'm on the 11.40 back from Hull.
I could have saved ~£3 by booking the 13.40 but I didn't. See above for why .

ETA: The 'spoons has the advantage over Cafe Pazaz that they serve beer a bit earlier, there's a wider/better choice and, key, it's possible to see the bikes from the tables near the windows.
Not that I've thought this through or anything

Sorry folks, I won't be on this one after all. The travelling is just too expensive and complicated for me at the moment, given that I'll be doing several other events in May. It's a really great ride though, I wish it was a bit closer to home!

That's a real shame TMN; I was really looking forward to seeing you again
I was also hoping to be able to guide you on your way (left/right/whatever) again .

@Andrew Br

I really hadn't considered the cheapskate rate equating to more time/money for beer. Truly

 

[mistral]

I see beer in my future.

I'm on a train around 2pm, changing at Doncaster

 

[SaLQ83]

That's what I thought too !

.

@wanda2010 & @Andrew Br we're looking forward to it

@wanda2010 & @Andrew Br we're looking forward to it

So are we* .

*I'm putting words in wanda's mouth there; I'm sure she won't mind given the circumstances .

Sorry I'll be heading down south!

 

[Flying Dodo]

That could make the trains a bit more crowded.

More time spent drinking and getting a later train back should solve your problems!

Sorry I'll be heading down south!

It's not 'till 5pm though - do both!

 

[mcshroom]

Me please Mr dellzeqq sir!

Not decided about how I'm getting back yet though

That would explain why the fares have suddenly jumped in the last week, unless you travel a lot later.

Seriously considered this (May ride - could be 'warm' ) ...


Then reality struck - falling 'asleep' ( ) during the (our first) Cup Final

Chapeau to you all regardless
