England : London Sunday London ride

[ttcycle]

Hope you all had a fab Christmas.

I'm bowing out of the SLR as haven't shifted my cold. Have a good ride, supposed to be sunny.

Sorry @topcat1 , now can't make tomorrow.

 

[rb58]

I'm not around this week either. Family stuff. Sorry.

 

[topcat1]

Happy birthday Sig

2015 is the year we get you back out on the bike

Just had a thought, does anyone like the idea of a civvies/casuals SLR? A dress up London ride in slightly dressy (ie not jeans and a tshirt) clothes. Cycling buddy thinks dresses or smart stuff is the thing of myths so when the weather is warmer do you guys fancy it? Could be fun.

Hoping to be out next week if I've shaken my cold (this one is hanging on forever)

 

[clarion]

Great idea! When it's warmer, natch.

 

[arallsopp]

I'd be up for that. No need for padding on my velochaiselongue. Tails might get caught in the chain though.

 

[rb58]

Nice idea TT. Also, a Boris Bike SLR should be on our list if we can find somewhere safe to store our regular bikes.

 

[ttcycle]

Excellent - when it's warmer and drier.

Top hat and tails Andy? Upping the ante...!

I also like the idea of a Boris Bike SLR but safe spaces would be a challenge unless we all got public transport in? I've not ridden a Boris bike yet.

 

[velovoice]

I've not ridden a Boris bike yet.

I have... and I'm against it. My observation is that it's only people over 5'8" who can handle them.

Worth a try though even if to swear off them ever again!

Looks like Adrian is an afficionado of this, I'll expect him on the SLR

I have a pass. Is there an SLR tomorrow? Is all this talk of 9am still in governance?

 

[ttcycle]

Have no idea Andy, I'm not out tomorrow. Some others seem to be heading south though.

Off to Brighton tomorrow, myself Ross and Tim.
More then welcome to join us.
