I've just signed up for the 'sporting' ride this evening.

I'ld be happy to marshall somewhere between London - Coulsdon, then join the ride from the back.

Would love to help, the last was was quite fantastic.

But, I need to double check that date as it coincides with a friends birthday, will let you know.

Christ! What will this entail? Women of Whitstable, brace yourselves...

 

[theclaud]

Well, I've signed up with the fancy online booking system. I'm not sure that the phrases "Nocturnal Extravaganza" and "static marshal" sit too well together, but by all means put me down for the thrills and spills of standing around and pointing on the corner of Short Straw Lane for five hours. Don't say I don't know how to have a wild time...

 

[slowmotion]

I signed up for the mild version just now. It could be an interesting ride. I will be flying back from the west coast of Canada on the Friday morning so there is every chance that I will fall asleep over the handle bars. I'm very much looking forward to another run to Brighton.

I say, if one is intending merely to be a static marshall does one need to register at all? I rather hope not, becuase I have had my fill of online registration systems this week. I now for instance have four TfL bike scheme keyfobs and am 140 squid out of pocket!

Is it in order for those intending to heckle their FNRttC mates whilst leaning smugly on a lamp post to offer waymarking assistance to all participants to leap upon their trusty steads and attempt to rejoin the grupetto once the cry of 'all up' has categorically and unequivocally been given?

HAHAHAHA!! I'll have you know am a reformed character... I merely meant buying our illustrious a belated birthday drink...

 

[Aperitif]

HAHAHAHA!! I'll have you know am a reformed character... I merely meant buying our illustrious a belated birthday Martin, my friend who guided me to my first hundred despite me running out of Tesco value maltloaves and stopping every five minutes for a pee, Claudine, who lets me draft her on the straight into Whitstable, and all my other lovely pals of all persuasions a drink or two as I haven't been around, and I think I should buy back a few friendships...

Fixed for you Davy. Shape up.

 

[dellzeqq]

if you're going to be marshalling there really is no need to register and pay the fee. That's devotion above and beyond....

If any of you would-be marshalls would like to de-register please send me an e-mail

We're past the 130 mark now...

 

[theclaud]

130 marshals might be overkill, DZ...

 

[Davywalnuts]

Fixed for you Davy. Shape up.

All how true indeed.. except I didnt draft our Claudine... but all very true espesh my first ton up!

130, wow!

 

[CopperBrompton]

Will there be a reasonable number of CCers on the genteel version?
