England : London Sunday London ride

[Mista Preston]

I thought you meant for Andy to stuff a couple of chickens down his bibs Clive...for that 'Coq Sportif' look!

But then I remembered that you feel the cold. What happens if you get a bit peckish - as we sometimes do - in the night...do you have to pull on the ear warmers before opening the 'fridge door?

I didn't know we were having a 'Post a Pic of Yourself in your Pyjamas' thread!

 

[Mista Preston]

weather looks hot for this coming sunday, who's coming out to play?

 

[Aperitif]

If you wear your ear warmers Clive, I'll faint.

Hi Clive, I'll be out. I was under the impression there wouldn't be a Sunday ride cos of the FNRttC?

Im not doing the Friday Night ride as i need to be awake on Saturday so I am riding Sunday. Not sure about Ian, Dave and Andy thou?

 

[ianrauk]

I might make it. See what time I get back on saturday

 

[arallsopp]

Oh Lordy. Are you riding back from Bognor, Ian? I'm somewhere between not turning up to the FNRttC at all (as expected and previously billed), waving off at HPC (as suspected by a few), joining and parting mid route whenever we're near my place (as anticipated by me), or joining the ride proper (as newly suggested by Evey).

...and now I've got to add 'and riding back with Ian', as obligated by past experience. Darn, this is looking big.

 

[ianrauk]

Got to get back early mate if I want a pass for a sunday morning ride. So probably going to get an train back to East Croydon from Littlehampton.

So c'mon fella.. what ya gonna do?

 

[Aperitif]

I fancy Greenwich again; me like. No foot tunnel though - Luke hasn't got enough cleat covers to lose another!

 

[ianrauk]

Nice Nice Nice
yes Greenwich was nice, a nice cafe up there and is probably much nicer with nicer warmer weather.

You may want to check the route for the London Bikeathon and organise around that as it should be chocker with cyclists.

That's nice! A CycleChat clad S.W.A.T team fixing old clunkers would be excellent publicity!

Good luck Abs and andy anyway.

So we're definitely on for Sunday then?

Legs are feeling a bit knackered but what doesn't kill you etc, been 3 weeks of every day cycling now. Non working days have had at least a 35 miler in them.

Greenwich sounds good but doing it without the foot tunnel suggests coming along the south bank of the river (either riverside path or main road)

 

[martint235]

Thinking about it, there's another cafe at the top of Shooters Hill if anyone fancies a challenge!
