Route looks great.

My brother-in-law owns a cafe in Cookham.

I'll find out if it's open for Monday! how much a sausage sandwich is and tell him we'll be there on Monday !

Fixed that for you ;)

Crock - you are playing a blinder!
(It WILL be open) will it not? ;)

His name isn't William by any chance is it? As in 'Will Cookham, but I prefer roasting chicken...'

Sorry.

The last part of the route looks a bit higgeldy-piggeldy but that is because all the paths are not indicated on the map. It is totally flexible with regard to time, weather etc. Also, we don't have to return to the station/s - if everyone is cycling 'in' from the South / East side of the park it is easy to spill out and return to your nests or other stations along the way.

The pic of the big hill looks super dooper, I'm going to start at the very top and ride very fast all the way to the end of the big path..

Also, if it's wet (I hope not) that grass might get a bit muddy and someone who shall remain nameless could very unfortunately end up on said wet and muddy grass, this could play havoc with the bling factor of said nameless persons bicycle....;)

Is this feasible on Bank Holiday Monday? Probably might have to engage in some pedestrian avoidance tactics....;)

into the Royal Park via a naughty slope,

Aperitif, dear sir, Ive been pulled over many a times as bikes are forbidden and they are usually very hot on it too...

We will have to be very sneaky if so, but oh, what a rush!

Mikeeeee, as fast as you may go down hill on a fixie :biggrin: there is a main road cutting through the royal mile...

And luke!!! TUT!!!! I think we should send MacB down first, I mean those butterfly bars must be a biking equivilent of a Chelsea Tractors cattle bars??:sad:

And CoG.... tell him its easy money! I mean, the numbers we now have in our peleton along with a minimun spend and am sure plus passing trade he'll be quids in!

And yes, am excited as I am moving house Sunday, which means I wont be getting lashed that day so no hangover monday which means all bets are now off! Just a shame mondays miles will count as this months cyclogs tally...:sad:.

Aperitif, ill probably ride in with you to london to pick up the chasing pack if thats okay? I fancy another ton of miles this month... :biggrin:

Bet's off?.............hmm I'm not sure, "humping" furniture about could cause many injuries including cramp...:biggrin:

Put me down for:-

1,000,000 to 1 - grand piano roll's down staircase and over poor Davy's foot......:sad: (see how I've not gone for major injuries there)
 
Royal Mile not allowed :biggrin::sad: Plenty of other ups and down within the park though (particularly behind the rhododendrons if it's dry :sad: )

Last night I wrote to Bisham Abbey etc...

Martin,



Yes the Centre and the café will be open over the weekend (only 10-4 on Monday). The café is situated upstairs in the sports centre however you would be welcome to take and food and drink purchased out onto the lawn area by the tennis courts or in front of the abbey (Not on Saturday and Sunday though as there will be functions taking place in the old abbey building/lawn) and so you would not be able to access these areas. Hope this helps!



Kind Regards,



Claire Broomby

Business Development Manager

Bisham Abbey National Sports Centre,


So that bit is open.

Needs a roll call soon as well... Why is work interfering with all this arranging?:biggrin:
