Chile?

Norway, and Sweden.

I'm going and am planning on riding through Wellington Arch at HPC around 22:15 on my way to South Bank as a sort of homage to Fridays spiritual starting point.

Now that the insurance requirements have been relaxed, I'm tempted...

...but it appears Mr R has other ideas and has booked something else.

Do the tour in July.

Foodie, Hopless and myself will be there until Maastricht then Herbie Hancock and the Ghent Jazz festivals lures us back to Ghent on the 7th July.

Not really relaxed, you still have to have third party insurance, so others in the group know if you injure them they can sue you and you have cover that will reimburse them. The rules remain the same, it's an acceptance of cover from BC and LCC.

A quiet word to the hard-working organisers :

Cycling UK's existence as the CTC was former, not formal

I think it still is actually called the CTC.

So it is!

Its formal name is CTC. The other one is the funkeh name, for trying to attract the yoofs.

Technically.... one is a registered company name, the other its brand. So you're both right, but not quite. I think I'll change it to "aka".

Form sent. Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones.

VV, you are diplomacy personified

(edit: that was meant as a reply to @velovoice's last post)

 

[Flying Dodo]
