FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast - Brighton April 26th

[Aperitif]

Would be kinda nice to sit on Brighton sea front next Saturday in this weather

Among friends, Mark (who will let you sit down after you have finished carrying grog to the table - Lesson #1 in the Breakfast Club), you will probably be thinking "would be kinda nice to (try to) stand on Brighton sea front next Saturday" hic etc...
Also, beware of the seafront chair thrower man - you'll be flying through the air if you're not careful, as he takes no prisoners.
Yes, today is perfect riding weather - if a bit chilly - earlier!

I should imagine you will all be on the smrbth by the time i roll up to the cafe blowing out of my rear

 

[Mr Haematocrit]

Forgot to ask is a gpx file available with data regarding the route?
still doing prep and tweaking my plans

V, stop fussing. Or at least, give it your best shot No-one is left behind and there are a number of rail stations en route if the unfixable happens. All you need is a working bike, a mouthful of water, a slice of buttered bread, a little cash and beer money. You ARE joining the SMRbtH aren't you?

 

[Mr Haematocrit]

Can you post a link to said GPX file

Of course I'm joining the SMRbtH would'nt miss that for the world, part of the experience

Stop fretting. And the GPX will be in the ride leader's head. Variations on the night possible due to conditions of roads and riders on the night. Just keep following the trail of red lights, don't overtake DZ and you'll be fine.

You're one person who knows to charge their batteries, of course...that includes the lights as well

 

[Mr Haematocrit]

It most certainly is part of the experience for me, as is checking everything twice on my bike. I just want to make sure I don't put anyone out.
Super excited though, can't wait for friday

Excellent. In that case you won't need beer money. Ain't that right Ian?

Edit: Have a half pint before you leave for HPC V. We'll need to work hard at getting you to chillax.

Is it?

Saturday morning rest, beer, then home. If I remember correctly.

 

[kimble]

Crikey, there's enough Johns on that list that this probably qualifies as a CycleBirmingham ride...

Fortunately we don't go near any canals.

 

[Aperitif]

Fortunately we don't go near any canals.

When DwalnutS is shouting away, a ride is never short of a 'few canal'...or two.

 

[User10571]

And there I was thinking that it was a 'far canal'.....
