Leeds-Scarborough 30 September 2017: The White Rose Classic

[nickyboy]

Not looking good at the moment.

Currently shitting through the eye of a needle, and have been all afternoon.
On a diet of imodium so hopefully the chemical cork will have kicked in by setting off time.

Suspect ill be in dire need of carbohydrate replacement drinks by end of tomorrow's ride, hope someone can suggest something suitable.....

You know what I smell Kes?

Excuses....

However, just to be on the safe side, I won't ride behind you

Not a good way to get down to your ideal ride weight . That was my past time last Thursday/Friday but quickly back to "normal" (I know I'm not normal!)

I don't think that's what we'll be smelling - I'll ride off the front with you if that's ok

They came, went away, and have returned with an excavator which looks a bit ominous.

They were doing some public utility digging in Market Place, Durham City, a few years ago when they found a skull.

Not such a surprise, given it's a former chruchyard.

But inside the skull was a Walker's crisp packet.

The presumed explanation was simple, a worker who dug there the time before also found the skull.

He put the crisp packet inside, and put the skull back without telling anyone.

I'll be there... Even if I have to wear a nappy

Well, I've been up for 40mins now, went to bed at just before 1am. #CanISnoozeOnTheTrain?

 

[ColinJ]

Hmph - I have woken up with a sore throat and the beginnings of a chesty cough, so I'm afraid that I will ...




... just have to come along anyway and see how I get on!

See y'all in a couple of hours.

Just at Piccadilly now changing. Bike storage is full of suitcases Should be about 45 mins or so.

It's also raining here, but then it is Manchester. Hopefully it's not a portent for the rest of the day.

Good luck everyone, have a great ride.

Gutted to be missing this years Scarborough ride as last year's was a such a good do, but I'm currently in Birmingham with work and won't be back oop North until later this afternoon.

I shall try and minimise my disappointment by eating as much of the hotel buffet breakfast as possible...
