Strange as the beeb use the met office for their forecasts. At least for another year anyway.

Already switched to MeteoGroup.....

I signed up a few weeks ago but no email yet?

1. no one of that name has signed up
2. those first-timers who have signed will have received an email yesterday
3. old hands will have one tomorrow, I hope.

Is it too late for another old hand to sign up for this ride? Form being sent in hope...

 

[mmmmartin]

Not too late.

Email just gone out to Bognor riders. Weather looking good for the ride, with rain in the evening that is forecast to ease off about midnight. Following 7mph wind all night forecast by (lowers voice respectfully, puts hand on heart) The Met Office.
We could fit in about three or four more riders for food at the halfway stop, which is The Edifice at Horley, with the scouts catering.
Anyone interested, email the fnrttc address.

That's Dyb Dyb. It's an acronym for Do Your Best.

As a lover of trivia, I feel I should have known that. But I didn't. Thanks Tim!

Amazingly, the Met Office has it doing just that - a tail wind for the ride down and a complete change in direction for the ride back. I'll believe that when I see/feel it. [/ATTACH]

I knew it was too good to be true. Met Office has done a 180 degree turn-around. Headwind for the down leg, and the wind direction then changes for another headwind for the return leg. Happy days!

I think they're the only ones atm.

I did know it... being a cub/scout way back when :-)

I always thought it stood for Dodgy Young Buggers - but that may just have been a rumour about the ones in our local troupe

Blimey! Trains pricey :-/
May ride-on to Eastbourne to get a sensibly priced train back to Deal :-)))
Every cloud etc.
