FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast Emsworth 20th April

[StuartG]

fear not - the harbour is right next door. We'll borrow a boat, and people can dispute the nature of pedantry as they drift out to sea.....

<pedant>You are unlikely to drift out to sea there. You are most likely to drift around Chichester Harbour and all its strategically placed hostelries. You would be very unlucky to get sucked out into the Solent passed Hayling Island.</pedant>

Mind you, some of us are all at sea when fixing a puncture ...

Are we back with A Day At The Circus?

Radi was a lion.
Radi had a lion tamer.
Radi didn't like her,
so Radiator.

Keep warm everyone. Stu really will be 'riding the lightning' (precision notwithstanding) if British Standard Steventime holds like wot it is now.

 

[Tim Hall]

AC-DC reformed or still bandjaxed ?

Fully rectified, or so the BBC claim.

How big is the place where we'll be having breakfast? Will I be able to get out of earshot?

User482' aim is accurate so I'd be concerned about him trying to shoot your ears - it's not like he'd need to be very precise.

Harsh

Merely trying to illustrate the semantic difference between "precise" and "accurate"...

The words "big","in", "spokes" and "stick" are going round and round in my head trying to connect for some reason.

Tonight's going to be fun...

 

[mangaman]

you're depressing no one. It will come north and clear London by the time we start!

Quite right - since my last post there has been non-stop sunshine, so hopefully no standing water

Something came this way - lightning over SE1 but no rain...

Just wear a pink shirt and you'll be fine.

That's a trifle disappointing - I was hoping you were going to suggest we throw them in!

 

[GrumpyGregry]

We'll be arriving at The Flintstones, South Street, Emsworth about 7.30.

My suggestion is that you catch the train from 06.19 from Horsham to Emsworth and join us for breakfast - although bear in mind it's a fair walk from the station to the cafe. If your better half comes along too we can buy her breakfast - for some reason I think we owe her.

My plan. Providing it isn't chucking it down as I've got to keep the dressings dry at all costs. The lovely Helen thanks you for the breakfast invitation but regrets she will still be a bed.

The Strida is a no go. Can't get to it in the shed. Pub bike or Brommie will have to suffice.

 

[User10571]

Just returned from winching myself up onto Blythe Hill to take in the evening light.

BOY!!! Has it become cold out there following the thunder and the hail!!!

Stay warm tonight, people.

 

[ceepeebee]

yeah, plenty layers folks - and to think it's 3 days off last years' run to Felpham and I remember that being pretty glorious.

 

[redflightuk]

Have good ride folks. Sky looks good here. See you on the Southend ride.
