February's ride for food

[HaloJ]

Fourded?

I didn't heed Franks warning by PM and rode on it all week until Friday where upon I woke to find a flat. Just gone over the whole tyre and it was just a single slither of flint that had worked it's way through. Plucked a good few out of the front as well.

I tend to use Ian's trick of filling the nastier holes in the tyre with superglue. Helps save a few rubber plants as well as a few pounds.

I was off work today with flu so I did a bit of tyre maintenance to keep boredom at bay. Dug out lots more little gremlins and did some supergluing. Got a bit carried away and retrieved some old tyres that were due to be thrown out and refurbished them with superglue. Now I shouldn't need to buy new tyres for a long time!

did i miss the ride for march?

you can always ride around the inner circle of regents park allday (stolen from across the road)

Apologies I've just not had time to organise a March ride as I'm leaving my current job and also preparing to move flat. I planned to ride the Olympic road race route solo during the week of 28th as a test run for April's ride. Then May's ride will be a Cambridge run again on the 7th or 8th for my Birthday.

Sounds like FNRttC to Blackpool!
But that is a smaller group so there is probably room for both.

16th is good for me

And me....

Thanks. I've sent Simon an email asking if it's ok to clash. I'm sure that those that are doing Blackpool have already got their trains arranged so doubt they'd join my ride.
