That may be a bit dificult - there's two of us going, one's a non-cyclist, it's 120+ miles each way (hence the overnight stay) and we've got to take our own equipment, safety wear, etc!

A folder would be ideal - if a bit crackers...

This is Hillingdon near Uxbridge, I take it?

and biskit time...

The folder would make it bike No. 9 which, even for me, is a bit excessive and I never really got on with the Dahon that I owned a few years ago. It's a case of travel across Wednesday afternoon, work all day Thursday & home that evening (if it goes ahead) so there's not really much time for a ride.

And yes, it's Hayes/Uxbridge area.

Heh, fair enough... Manic schedule...

That area's my old stomping ground as I did my undergrad at Brunel.

Use a car as backup. With the non-cyclist driving.

I'm glad you said "at" rather than "with" - I didn't have you down as that old

Oh you're truly ghastly! You've just made me spit my tea all over my laptop!

Now - there's a plan. I cycle both ways and my coleague takes all the equipment in the car.

I could leave first thing on Wednesday and take my time about it, then do the return trip on Friday. The route could be shorter as I could go through central London instead of round the M25, but I doubt work would pay for the extra night in the hotel, let alone the differential travelling time

I've just seen a pop up advert for a coat. It said "Good for cold weather". That's like saying a cup is good for holding tea.

You'll not know unless they say "No".

Did you refill your cup afterwards?

Gawd knows what the moggies have been up to, they woke me up hurtling around the house at about 3-00am.

Off out for an early mtb session with son in law before the girls decide what they "we're doing today"

Lovely morning for a taz in the woods. Son in law has a new mtb so he'll be on a flyer today.. Me in an hour or so

Morning. It is sunny here but it seems to be misty / cloudy again .

There was a bit on tv just now saying that they have discovered that a bone that is in a tendon behind the knee in some people is becoming more common throughout the world .

 

[Illaveago]

I had a strange dream last night ! I was watching tv in my dream !

I hope I don't need a tv dream licence !
