FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast - Southend-on-Sea May 4th

[TimO]

So, do Wiggle sell waders? (SPD compatible, obviously).

I was wondering if I could get a canoe in my Carradice....

Hatler and I are going for a look-see on Thursday. If it's as high as it is in the picture we'll simply have to take a different route....

 

[User10571]

I'm reliably informed that the bridge/path to the right of the ford was totally submerged.
I'm correct in thinking that Hatler drives a boat, am I not?

 

[theclaud]

Better flooded than frozen.

I'll drink to that.

 

[User10571]

OK.
Another one from the same photograher, same location.

Given that there's a mag-mount aerial on the boot, you have to ask the question.... well? .... did he have one on board?

 

[Aperitif]

There may be a school of thought that this post was unnecessary.

Sad but true.

And User10571's second illustration looks like the ultimate ford fiesta...

Addison Lee-on-Solent?

that's the handrail to the footpath. Which means it's five feet deep at the deepest part. And it's probably flowing quite rapidly. We're going to have to send Davy across with rope.

There was 3 foot of Water in......Watery lane. Funny that.

Its the Road on the left just after the small bridge at Battlesbridge. You can get through but it is not very pleasant. If you are going that way of course

It's been part of the route in the past...... I seem to remember some monster puddles along there when Dellzeqq, Mice and I reccee'd it a couple of years ago. Mice was on her Trice......

I remember those puddles. The levels stayed below my Sprint Seat (That's Ice Speak incase someone thinks I have found a new speed!) but puddles there were. Now Im on an upright I wont worry so much...! Besides as per the FNRttC blogspot rules I dont have schmudguards so am used to having a wet butt!

Near breakfast time in the cold? "Icecycles aretrikecycles as micecycles" (Yeah - I know, enough to give you the Noddys!")
