England : London 7 April: The Death of the Sunday London Ride

[Blue Hills]

Not quite. A distribution centre for scalextrics, Hornby trains and airfix models. If you've got one I might have sent it to you.

Cripes, be careful - you risk regressing to a second childhood. I hope your employers provide counselling.

Easter Sunday? It's the only Sunday I have left until the 2 June. Doesn't open until 11.30am on a Sunday, so maybe ride, cafe, ferry, ride?

I would really like to do this. I am on a 7pm train for the Harwich Hook ferry and 5 days cycling in the Netherlands and it depends how my packing goes, as I have a 12hour slot on saSaturd marshalling a walking event. So it goes.......
What time and where will you finish Tim?

We are finishing at Ally Pally. The Phoenix Bar and Kitchen. Which is in the South West corner. Hopefully arriving about 1-1.30pm

Margate? If so have you been into the old factory and seen The Bittern and Black 5?

I went there for a Trade Day a couple of months ago.

Unfortunately I can't make this. I'll be in Selsey updating a central heating system for the outlaws.

Not Margate no. Near Canterbury. Not been to the Margate site. I think it's just a visitor centre now.

@rb58 not going to make this. Been told by physio not to ride because my knee kept giving way. Been fine for a few days until last night when it's become very tender and painful. Need to wait for another appointment but this will probably be me out of Whitstable too.

Sorry to hear this mate. Rest up and GWS. Let me know about Whitstable nearer the time.

Will do. This is going into its third week now. Physio thinks ligaments but confused by lack of pain, well that changed last night. He's a cyclist too.

I have to go for an MRI on my knee. Doc thinks it’s a torn meniscus. But strangely, it’s not been such a pain this week.

I had two scans on mine about 25 years ago same knee both in the tube so I guess one was an mri the other a cat scan maybe. That was looking at cartalidge I think. Over half a working life at sea is never going to be helpful to the joints.

Maybe we're getting older, which is a good thing I suppose when you consider the alternative.
