CJ is very good for me.

Must remember sun tan this time, my head is peeling badly!

Darn. -1 from me. Sorry all. The day pass still stands, but I really need to spend some time with the family. Work has been mental for the last few weeks, and I've been out the house from 0700 to 2230 every day. Got to take some time to be a daddy and a husband, but hope to see some of you on the next FNRttC.

Oh, and say "Hi" to Longers from me, and thank him for the food

This is not doing my visio-imaginary perceptions any good at all...

It's all moved along nicely in here.

So it's 10-10.30 at Sheffield station.

And I'll get my excuse of inadequate gears in now as well

53/25 is also my lowest gear B)

Any room at the back for one more Teef? I'm starting to think that this will be the first ride which requires me to walk

Have you been boozing with Davy? You must mean 25/53

25 at the front? I don't think I could pedal fast enough to even keep it upright.

and I'm never going boozing with Davy again

my mtb's got 22/36 on the front. quite a popular combination.

Strines ride - Saturday 26th September

Meet at Sheffield railway station 10:00am to 10:30am

Is there a roll call for this ride? Could I be included?

I've met the southerners on other rides so could act as an interpreter...

 

[marinyork]

I think

MacB
topcat1
Origamist
Davywallnuts
Redjedi
Arallsopp
and Aperitif are driving up from London.

ILB, myself and Hulver from Sheffield
Bonj
Longers (and maybe Dan Bo) from Lancashire.
There may be others.

I don't think Arallsopp is doing this one, and I think Mike e might want to come along

 

[marinyork]

Well there are a few others from other wapentakes that may or may not be coming along (not that likely).

Being serious, yes mike e can come if he likes. We're meeting outside the station because unfortunately Sheffield station is now a closed station. I'm sure Teef may be in there earlier than that drinking in Debenhams or somewhere across the road that I find for him.

I now realise the error in my post. It's actually a 39 chainring, with a 11-25 cassette.

But no time for any changes now, I'll just have to suffer.

Sheffield station is now a closed station.

What do you mean by "closed station" Marin?
Do you mean you can't get in without a ticket?
I hope it is open, as that's the station I will be arriving at from Lincoln.

 

[bonj2]

if you're arriving on a train from lincoln you'll have a ticket won't you? or are you planning on 'avoiding' the ticket inspectors?

is there a pub in debenhams?

 

[redjedi]

I'll have a ticket, I just don't want to get stuck in a train station because it's no longer in use, perhaps Sheffield no-longer has any use of a train station.

Last time I was "up there", we couldn't get dinner after 9pm and no where was serving food between 12 and 1pm. It was good to get back down south after that weekend

well course it's in use, it's a busy station you just have to have a ticket to get in/out. if you've got a ticket you shouldn't have a problem.
Leeds has been like that for a lot longer.
