[Flying Dodo]

All good things must come to an end.

Yes folks, brace yourselves, as this is the last ever Friday Night Ride to the Coast














for 2019.

So make the most of it, get yourself an all night pass and join in the fun. All the blurb including the link for the sign up form can be found here.

Registered, though I'm sure I didn't win the sign-up race this time.

We'll be going on some new roads by the way.

Well, technically they're the same knackered, potholed bits of tarmac we normally have to endure, so they're not brand new bits of infrastructure which I've specially had constructed, but what I mean is a few miles that haven't actually been used for a FNRttC before.

 

[Domus]

I have registered, rather anxious though.
Us simple northern folk are very wary of That London, what tyres grip best on the Gold pave?

Diamond studded ones.

 

[Domus]

Oh dear, I only have coal studded ones. Black stuff we used to dig out of the ground until Maggie made it illegal.

Mrs Domus and I have booked a hotel in Steyning for the 10 - 13 October, is my plan to get the train from Shoreham to Victoria at 21.44 and ride along the Albert Embankment sound? Or is there a better way?
This simple northerner need assistance.

Victoria to Waterloo is a PITA, due to the one-way systems and interminable roadworks.You might want to consider the Clapham Junction option...something like this.

 

[Domus]

Top tip
Thanks Stu.

 

[hatler]

Or just switch trains at Clapham to get on a Waterloo train. You won't have more than about eight minutes to wait.

Yep, or that!

 

[Shadow]

...or I can meet you at Victoria and ride to the start together, passing some of the Smoke's well-known sights.
And I can ride with you to Steyning on saturday morning, as this is on my route home.
Plenty of options for you @Domus !

 

[Domus]

Victoria it is, train due in at 23.00.

I shall be wearing a red Carnation and carrying a copy of the Beano.

 

[Shadow]

My train not due til 23.12.......................................................its always late. Still plenty of time to get to BFI.

Pink carnations not available in Sunny Radcliffe?

 

[Domus]

Will purchase carnation in Sussex. We only have Turnips up here.
