Might be your last chance to pay a child fare!

 

[tdr1nka]

No need to joke CoG, Radius is exactly the same age as my eldest.

 

[DJ]

Damn! That negates my 'Joy Of The Wandsworth One Way System' ride then.

No no tdr1nka, that s...o...u...n...d...s...............f..........u...........n!


Honest!?

 

[tdr1nka]

Oh, OK then.
But the Hills of Upper Norwood idea is a go'er, no?

 

[Radius]

Yeah me too, (of course). But no trains

You won't get to Auntie Helen's ride in April from London without using a train... not unless you make a long weekend of it!

Your right! Radius is a strapping young man of er nearly 18, I reckon he would be up for riding up on Friday evening ( a bit like they do in the Dunwich Dynamo) going for a ride then downing 12 pints of Lager, sorry real ale and hitting some excellant Essex night spots before riding home again and still managing to convince his mum he's perfectly sober!

 

[DJ]

I've realised that the next ride I can definitely attend is Aunti Helen's in April. That gives me a gap of nigh-on two and a half months. If people want to organise smaller, open invite, ad-hoc rides inbetween the official Calendar of events then why not? I'd be up for it.

I would like to organise one, is any one free the week of the half term? on the Tuesday perhaps?

 

[Radius]

make it 7 and I might be able to do it
I am riding this Friday evening, though, Critical Mass time
Rest assured I'll not every be paying £4 for a pint of Hoegaarden, we can leave that to certain Focus riders


EDIT: And Dave / David / Davey / Davo / Daffyd () [?] I might be free then, well I'll certainly be on holiday I think if it's half term week...

Really did focus rider have Hoegarden?!!!

Well ye that's great Radius I thought at least you would be free that week, I would like a couple of others to come as well though cos i don't want to be last the whole of the ride!

 

[tdr1nka]

I'll be available at some point in the half term week, keep me posted.

 

[Auntie Helen]

I'm probably available in Half Term week, although I don't know when that is! Could someone give me the dates for the benefit of one who left school long ago...

Half term is from Monday the 16th to friday the 20th of Feb,I am thinking of a quick sprint maybe on the tuesday of that week which would be the 17th of feb. This is really an interim ride for those who can't make all the bigger rides! I'm not going to factor in any cake stops and it will be over about 20 to 25 miles non stop. Unless someone needs to!
I will put an itinery together this weekend and start a thread on it.

Sorry if this all sounds a bit harsh! If people don't want this type of ride then just say!

What time do you finish work CofG ?

 

[tdr1nka]

4.30. Don't plan round me though! Though 25 mile jaunt sounds good and I'll do my best to try and juggle to come along.

Cheers
