Whose doing it?
What ya riding/wearing?

This must be around No 14 L2B or so for me...

I'm on my Red Giant TCR (see sig), Reynolds wheels and blue tyres, On-one bibs and either my C+ or Northwave Heart 'n' lungs jersey. Black-red and silver Bell lid.

Hope to see you there, starting early.

    I'll be there![:D]

    What will I be wearing? I have no idea at the moment! I'm studying the weather. Looks like it'll be warm but rainy.[?]
    Got soaked while on Ditchling Beacon a few years ago and that was most unpleasant.

    I have a six am start.

    Anyway, It will be a great day!

    I remember that cloud-burst! Lots of 'hypothermia' (or close to) sufferers on the sea-front I recall.

    I'm planning to be there, on speedskates though, not a bike. I'll have LondonSkaters Speed Team team kit on (blue/white) with LSMike on the back. Blue/silver skates with large green wheels, so shout out if you see us. We're leaving at 07.30 if it's dry.

    If I had a baby elephant, I'd teach it to skate.

    Start time of 8am - but picking up mates from Cambridge means my alarm needs to be set for 4am!

    Will be on a silver Cannondale. I'll be amongst the masses - so I won't be expecting a fast time. Fingers crossed it'll be dry on the day, should be a nice leisurely pootle down to the Sarf Coast.

    8am start for me also.

    I'll be riding my Moulton Deluxe hack - which I might even give a bit of a clean before hand.

    Clothes - no idea what exactly, but I think I might go for the scruffy comfortable look. [:D]

    First L2B for me. 9am start, wanted earlier[:(] and doing it with a bunch from a mates office who are all slow and unfit, so it's gonna be a long day! Is anyone cycling back? Our team are so disorganised I'm thinking riding back will be the best bet, I've loaded the reverse route into my new Garmin but it has no waypoints, reckon I'll be ok but company would be appreciated! I'll be riding a black/red Wilier, black bibs, red/white Wilier branded jersey and a red/black Bell helmet.

  • I'm down for 8:00 start but will try for earlier. I will be wearing a giro pink jersey and so will my mate from work. Just so we can see each other when we get seperated.
