I saw Bokonon in Uni today!

I didn't see you. I must have been wandering around in my own little world.

Hey Colly, if you're riding out from Leeeeeeds again, i'll join you. Oh yeah, I saw Bokonon in Uni today!

If I do make it I will be driving over. I may not have time anyway.:biggrin:

Be able to tell nearer the time.

That really looked good. But now cannot do the 29th.


Have been invited to the Induction Service for the new Pastor at our old church.

But seeing this has been so well received could their be a third later.

I would love a long day out

Anyone considered a Saturday also.

Looks like my kind of food.

I'm sure we can arrange another ride out. I desperately need to get some more miles in before my ride to Amsterdam.

I don't always go through all sections of the site.Would someone send me a message if another date is picked.

I really enjoyed doing the shirt relay.And it was great meeting the cycle chatters.

And i am not as big as Uncle Phil thinks.But it would be a good photo opportunity to see Cathryn in my xxxl jacket.

If I'm involved, I'll PM you postman.

Size doesn't matter. Just standing you and Cathryn next to each other could be amusing, though... Or perhaps Mrs Uncle Phil would do:

Back to your place for tea and biccies at the end then - is that OK?

You know, I'm tempted to say yes, just to see how many Cyclechatters would fit in!;)

(Note to self. Buy biscuits and put away laundry, esp pants.)

Annoyingly, they knocked down the really handy bike shed just opposite.

Well, I'll see if I get the FCR fettled in time (it really does come down to affording the tyres this month), but with the Big Apples pumped up hard, and minimalist baggage, the hack might do it.

Anyway, if it got too much, I'll probably have the right map and could drop out and head back. But if the pace isn't too fast, I'll cope. Which map would I need. BTW? I have most of round York covered, I think.

If you know the York bits, and you're talking pink-cover OS 1:50,000 maps, you'd want Malton & Pickering, Sheet 100.

Or just print out the map I linked to in the first post.

I'm sure we'll all fit in - we're all good friends. I don't mind having my tea in the corridor or wherever. And, as Postman has alluded to, some of the local members are compact and bijou, space-saving, petite ones.

Cheers, I think I have that one. Actually, it's the one side of York I havn't covered so much - I tend to go down Selby way, or Tadcaster.

I'm sure I can fit a few people in - it's sitting down that's the problem. Two chairs, a sofa that can take 3 at a pinch (if I clear all the kintting wool and the Ukulele off it) - other wise it's standing room, or reclining on the bed.... Or all sitting round the edge of it, backs to each other. Less conducive to conversation!

I might be able to make an appearence for the 29th. Depending on how things go that weekend, as I'm at my brothers for his 40th Birthday party on the Saturday.

That depends if South Yorkshire people are allowed of course :biggrin:

I'm originally a York lad, hailing from Wigginton, so I rode the roads north of York a fair bit in my youth. Gosh, that makes me sound old now :biggrin:

It'll take some carefull juggling to manage it, but I'll be the fat bloke in the YACF jersey (infiltrator!). Still set for a 10 am start?

I did say Yorkshire folk of all persuasions, so I suppose that includes South Yorkshire. If we must.:biggrin:

I'm not sure we can allow a YACF jersey, though...:smile:

I'm hoping to make the 29th as well. Depending on time I may have to turn back early as I'm on nightshift that night though.
