Those are good numbers by themselves. Do you have a confirmed number of Martlets yet?

it's about 64...

it's about 64...

64 Marlets + 58 FNRttC regulars = Peleton....

 

[StuAff]

And is there a 64 seat sag wagon?

Only if we bungie everyone together with the stronger riders at the front.

On top of my usual set of tools (screwdrivers, allen keys, spoke key, chain tool, inner tube for my bike), I reckon I'll be able to carry inside my jacket about 5 spare tubes of various sizes, 15 Parks Instant Repair patches, an adjustable spanner and a pair of pliers/wire cutters.

Apart from a hammer, anything else recommended for repairing BSO's?




PS The above is meant as a humorous comment and in no way denigrates the efforts of those riders who will be making a real effort beyond their comfort zone.

14mm socket + wrench to tighten up square taper BBs.

And the oatmeal parkin is already made.

When BSO's break, as the link I posted earlier goes to show, they break in ways far beyond the capacity of mere men with handtools to fix....

...thusly the best tool to bring would be a skip lorry to follow the sag wagon.

I'll be coming as a bike shaped object! I will need a tow. If you can't give me a tow, then a decent nose will do! Come on everyone - arallsopp is going to publish a book about this epic ride and needs anecdotes and photos and recipes and fund-a-mental raising ideas! All in a good cause.

And, anyone with a double yellow line on their jacket gets no parkin - ok hatler?! (It's mine all mine)

Really ? We might need some additional form of transport for you then. I made a triple batch.

What about people with double yellow lines on their face?

Very good - a Luke warm welcome back to the world of derring-do derailleurs for me.
Anyone who wants to make fun of me - roll up! £1 a go - in aid of Marlets Hospice.
That will be £2 thanks Luke!

 

[redjedi]

I've only got a fiver. Don't worry about the change I might need to use it soon

That's more than you usually bring out when Al and I are sitting with empty glasses Luke, what happened?

(It's OK - I paid £1 )
