FNRttC with Barclays Bikes

[redjedi]

That's you out then....

Where's ILB when you need him? I'd be very disappointed if this goes ahead and he's not on one.

...and we do it in blond wigs and ill-fitting suits, talking cr*p along the way.

Anyone got a wig and a suit? The rest I can manage.

Ive got a few wigs, fancy dress dresses and stuff...

Ian... cheek of it!

 

[marinyork]

Absolutely you should do it, it was joked about on here a few times.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Oi vay! oh Yay!

I'm in; a fundraising stroke of genius I reckon.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Does anyone know anyone at Serco? At the end of the day the bikes and logistical 'ownership' of same belong to them....

Barclays Boris Bike Brighton Bummel Brigade Bonanza anyone?

 

[robgul]

Wizard wheeze BUT have you ridden one of the things? - all I can say is, allow plenty of time for the journey - slow and cumbersome is a generous description.

I think that can all be ameliorated by the participation of Kelly Brook on this ride.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Once you get them up to speed though, lots of mass to keep them rolling.

yup. Do you want the top of Slugwash Lane, or the bottom?

Bit like my Trice Q then ............

 

[rich p]

Count me in. What a great idea

 

[dellzeqq]

I'm heartened by your enthusiasm! But, bear in mind, this is a sell. It's not going to be easy....

 

[Wobblers]

Sounds like an outstanding idea! It's the sort of mad/eccentric idea that would be bound to get lots of publicity - if you sell it that way and suggest the publicity would be good for Barclays//TfL you'd have a better chance of success.

I wouldn't need a blond wig...

Hmmm. Eschew the titanium comfort of my Van Nic for a Boris Bike? Sacrifices have to made I suppose. Not sure that my knees would ever forgive me, though...

 

[style over speed]

OMG I'd love to do that... this year I did dunwich and the martletts ride on a 5 speed bike, which I think actually weighs even more than a boris bike.

Can you put my name down!

 

[threebikesmcginty]

I wouldn't need a blond wig...

You could help me, rich and teef out and still have enough left for yourself!
