The Fridays Tour

[dellzeqq]

thankyou, Snorri, and please accept my apologies for the nonsense you've had to wade through to reply. I don't think I heifer known it be this bad...

 

[clarion]

I won't be cowed. And don't try milking this.

What's your beef, chuck? Hold your tongue.

 

[mmmmartin]

I've never herd such nonsense.

 

[clarion]

Time to moove on...

 

[theclaud]

I agree, it is all very silly.

Quite. You should steer the thread in a more sensible direction.

You mean 'don't let the tale wagyu' - that sort of thing?

sounds good to me, Ian. Don't get them excited about the stove thing, tho'. It's bully beef and hard tack once we're past Bingham...

The increased number of returning cyclists has prompted me to look at a ply and softwood upper deck for the Luton, which would, I think, allow us to transport the bikes whole rather than dismantled

Hi DZ, I'm no handyman with plywood and timber! Made note to myself though to bring soft rope and bungee cords. Consult / tell me nearer the time what you would like me to carry for riders' daily comfort/refreshment. Sue (Mrs Ian) will then have that lined up at Wellingborough to load onto the van there - and to take away my full-size bike at that point.

Funnily enough, a whole month has flown by and it's jazz again tonight at Wellingborough (the Kit Downes Quintet) and I shall visit that exotic Tesco for their cash machine. Cheers, Ian.

it'll all be sorted.

If any one of you has a bike that is higher (as in floor to top of saddle or handlebars, measured vertically) than 1.05Metres (three foot five and a half in old money) speak now or prepare to meet thy chainsaw

Holy van der Rohe!

 

[Flying Dodo]

Is that a tartan from an obscure clan?

It's the Klan Mondrian, isn't it? As reimagined by an early 1990s hacker. (Anyone else remember CGA monitors?)

I was going to throw in the Piet Mondrian/L'Oreal remark, but thought better of it....
What I find exceptional is the capacity to generate the work of an iconoclast of this calibre, midweek, in the hours of daylight.
Outstanding.

A big hand please for Stella McLeggney.


(Actually, I have to admit I'm rather taken by it. Perhaps a heavier line round the red star?)

Thankfully I'm only doing the first day!!!
