Ok guy's, the weather report has changed yet again, see what did I tell you ? You just don't know what the weather is going to do!
There is a large high pressure hanging around over most of the country, as long as that stay's in place then it will be dry. It's blocking the wet weather coming in from the Atlantic and down from the north. So let's just hope it stay's that way until dusk tommorow.
As, I said before, everyone who's name is still on the list will be getting a PM with my mobile number, any problems just let me know! Or put a message up on here!
Looking forward to meeting you all tomorrow.

The dog is good company (but too old to run up hills for 20 miles), the hat less so. Still it looks like I won't need to wear the hat in anger, due to hopeful disappearance of rainclouds suggested in latest weather forecast.
I was going to clean my bike today but the Cycling Photo Challenge is of a dirty bike so I may have to leave the cleaning for a few days so it can get REALLY mucky in London before I photograph it.
See you all tomorrow! I shall avail myself of some cake or flapjack or something to share around, seeing as SigSilverprinter is unable to attend this ride. Don't want you all fainting through lack of nourishment!

BE WARNED
this ride takes us past the house in which I grew up, my junior school, possibly past my secondary school, almost every park I played football in as a kid, past my favourite art gallery, and some buildings that I, for one, think are interesting. I can point out where there was farmland, where there were prefabs, and any number of other little bygones.
It'll be like being trapped inside Little Britain goes Local History for a couple of hours.......

I'm willing to be photographed with the hat without bribes.
Looking forward to the local history ride with Dell seeing as we will be finishing the ride at the pub where I had my wedding reception which is also opposite my brothers old secondary school.

Well I'm completely hopeless about London, I only know the bit around Charing Cross/Waterloo where I worked for a while, so it's all new to me. Any local colour, to be provided by Delzeqq or Tdr1nka, will be much appreciated!

On the Bleak Mid Winter Ride we rode past a house which on I had worked on the flat roof of some five years ago, some said asked if this had been deliberate.

with all this talk of photo's I take it some one will be bringing a camera? Would that be you tdr1nka?
Perhap's everyone should have a shot, of themselves in the hat in front of their fave South London landmark!
**think's** dellzeqq in front of his old school
tdr1nka in front of his brother's house
Radius ...........erm in front of the pub!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would be infront of or underneath the Crystal Palace radio mast!
People from not around here would have to find there fave photo opportunity enroute!

I'm bringing my camera along of course... but my pics of the Billericay ride weren't that great so I hope someone else has one. And of course I hope we can find a convenient wheelie bin as a tripod!

My brother's old school! If we were going to his house we'd be going via Shepherds Bush & White City.
A group shot on the bandstand on Clapham Common would be nice.
