FNRttC York to Hull Friday Night Ride - 23rd June 2017

Registered. I may be forced to drop out if this road rash hasn't actually finished healing (there are a couple of nasty gouges that are taking their time), or worse, suffer the indignity of a saddle. If I can't do the ride I'll bring my elbow pads and assist User10119 with the cake delivery.

Did I win the race to sign up first?

No you weren't - I was!

Although that's only because I was testing the link before it went live.

However, someone else beat you to the next spot.

Fortunately, we can

 

[CrispyH]

Fortunately, we can

Thanks for the replies. I would really love to do it but Im more worried it will be too far for my first event 40ish didn't seem so bad but wasn't expecting 70.Sounds like it could be a step too far with only 3 weeks to train up. However i think i will get into training as it does sound good

Oh what the hell.

I'll take the day off work.

I've always wanted to ride over the Humber Bridge.

I'm in.

@CrispyH meant the mileage....

 

[GrumpyGregry]

Not convinced the rail tickets/connections/reservations I've booked will work out but...

... tickets booked.

 

[Flying Dodo]

@CrispyH meant the mileage....

I know. Just trying to be helpful.

 

[StuAff]

Why not? What have you booked?

He's booked tickets on the wonder that is our privatised rail system. No-one can ever be convinced it'll work out OK…
