I'd suggest HPC. 8 is OK for me.

Well, my pump won't fit in my seatpack (and no way of mounting it on the bike)....Unless you want to count the Carradice as a seatpack!! No room for any cake either. Or lights..... And I like being able to have a drink without stopping (I haven't got good balance, last time I tried to drink from a bottle on the move I nearly came off, and I've had enough crashes this year!). The way you lot moan, you'd think I was making you carry it.....!!!

Buff??? Armwarmers??? Its the middles of Summer!!! God, you oldies...

HPC is fine by me, possibly the earlier the better. I will be cycling back as I am Mister Davy'idontdotrainsontheRBTH'walnuts and so I dont quite fancy getting home at midnight and then up a few hours later for work... So.... who's plotting the route... and should this be allowed to be plotted by a Garmin user?

Missed the bit about armwarmers. I don't own any, TC brought them up. so it's 'oldie', TYVM
+1 for having a paper map. Garmins are a bit unreliable as a route guide.

Nah they're fine as long as you don't use Garmin software to make a route and NEVER rely on their internal routing data.

And remember to turn them on after a stop.........

There's nothing to be scared of, having a route carefully plotted on Garmin. just be scared of the peeps to whom the kit belongs... (except for topcat's one - he never risks telling anyone anything for fear of incrimination... )

Where are you all going then?

 

[ianrauk]

Don't tell him Pike...

Is this something to do with 'they don't like it, Upham'? That's in Hampshire. (Where are you going again?)

 

[dellzeqq]

how many of you?

By the way, Adam, the frozen eye was in Bracklesham. Bracklesham is bracing, but Wittering is warmer.

The mobile number for the ferry is 07970 378 350. He can take eight bikes at a time.
