FNRttC 4th September to Whitstable 2009

[mike e]

You'll be there in spirit my friend...meanwhile, address yourself to the little matter of the '(led by moi Strines Ride' - it exists about here somewhere - because there is talk of a posse (led by moi ) heading Northwards for fun. (Direction unknown, but fun guaranteed)

There's a geezer on here "Marinyork" leading a Strines ride sometime in September? and I've pm'd ilovebikes who's going to be oop north for quite a while, he was asking questions about a winter wardrobe.....

Shorts, top, gloves and beer tokens + a decent cap (Rutland County race style) - that's what I told him will see him though...

Why has everyone now got posh names? I haven't got a clue who's riding anymore which is largely irrelevant as I'm not riding anyway....

Just curious that's all....

This isn't leading on to some sort of FNRttC name badge I hope, the only people I will know are MacB and Topcat1 and only because their cycle shirts tell me.....

In Belgium, Brazil or Beirut, Mike E is the poshest name there is. People pretend to be related to you.

Everyone I know says your name - all the time "Hull lad"...

...never a day goes by without the cry of "Now where's mike e?"

(Little do you know, or the Bride & Groom, the return from Whitstable is via your wedding reception...)

Might have to put the hammer down a bit for the last 200kms!

you've still got time to split up the 'potentially' happy couple, I know it's an extreme solution, but this is your cycling life

There is no such thing as a "happy couple" in Hull, just a "slightly better off financially so why not".....

It's still nearly 2 weeks away and I'm getting serious withdrawl symptons.

I must not, must not, must not, keep reading this thread...

And to make matters a lot worse Simon goes and sends a pm with a glitzy postcard / flyer thingy and I'm in one of the pictures and there's that loverrrly dawn sunrise and it tells you how nice brekkie's going to be....

PS John Wayne has serious 'with drawl symptoms' too...dude

those of you cursing the tardiness of the moon might just think on this. Oyster season starts on September 1st. There's a soft, yielding, flavoursome, almost liquid, little bivalve somewhere, a salty ball of loveliness, with Mike E's name on it...

...and it's being whitsablespered in your 'shell like' mikeeee....
