    Yeah I like beer and I like Fridays at the Morpeth, although will have to restrict intake of said beer due to a 7am start for L2B on saturday.

    pfft you need to talk to dhope about my l2b on my 30th birthday.

    I drank solidly from 2pm -> 2.30am the night before and then rode the whole way with a full messenger bag of shit I didn't need having only ever done half that distance in a single day before.

    and I did it on my fixed gear.

    HTFU :lol:

    surely in the same way they throw petals down for freddies dad in coming to america - he was merely cleaning/hallowing the area for you to walk upon?

    Judging by the way I felt Saturday morning I should have thrown more pints on the floor. 85 miles hungover on 2 1/4" tires wasn't fun.

    I could certainly tell a few beers had been had by you all

    Was a little jealous until the morning when I felt ok and had to spin to win

    Seems the Morpeth is 180 on Wednesday 21st and is offering beer at £1.80 between 18.31 and 8.11pm. Another opportunity to run them out of Ale?

    I'll be there and hopefully I'll be in a BLINDING mood. At the very worst, I'll be in a good mood.

    I'll probably get there quite early and leave quite late.

    Pass arranged so i'm coming. Looking forward to it as it's been a while. No drunken stories this time......

    Will be coming over from Docklands. Due to finish here at 5.30 but may well finish up earlier, so expect me sometime between 5pm and 6pm.

    Will be putting in an attendance too. Not to see you lot, obviously, but to take some liquid refreshment between my Strava segments, completely ruining my door-to-door average speed but enabling me to try and blast for the record, NotSoBlue style :wink:
