The Fridays Tour

Leave off, you are not that young.

Ahem, young enough to not have a clue what you're on about. I'm sure NS was dead by the time I was born.

The best descending microtonic scale in music - not that there's much competition. And I'm sure MrsW will sing you one on a flat stretch if you ask her.

This is getting depressing, hand doctor says 8 to 10 weeks recovery time. I'm not allowed on bike on the road due to increased risk! Bugger! I'm determined to still come but I may be wheezing and coughing my way to Scotland.....

get that man a turbo!

I've just been through the bookings with York YHA (19) and all is now hunkydory (yhm Sketchers). Likewise Hownsgill Bunkhouse (12).

On some nights (Bingham, Castleside, Tain/Dornoch) we're going to be pretty spread out. In York we're almost all within walking distance of the YHA - which will take the van - there's only one so far at Naburn. Kinross is half and half - there's a few out at Gallowhill and two at the Travelodge, but it's all within a mile - same with Newtonmore. Jedburgh and Wick we're pretty much all together, so we'll make those nights the social evenings. Should I see if I can get Alex at Glenbank to do pasta (meat and non-meat) for 40?

Sounds like a good call to me…

I agree, sounds good to me.

They would presumably be LonBing peeps.

Re Glenbank. Yes please.

 

[mmmmartin]

[martint235]

Gosh no email and no idea what this Nancy Sinatra business is. I'm starting to feel like a second class citizen. I blame the Tories.

Good grief. Thank the Lord I wasn't born until 19678.

Re nosh-ups - great idea.
Which reminds me - the nice lady in the B&B outside Bingham where a number of us are staying (who was highly amused at the idea of a bunch of cyclists booking for June on the same day in January) suggested that she provided afternoon tea for everyone. Which sounded like a spiffing idea but one I never followed up. I think she understood what "afternoon tea" ought to consist of after a long bike ride.
