    Yeah - course from 13th-16th but probably stay for st Patrick's day and head out next sat. Need to find some way of hiring a bike to keep training up.

    What is PT? You do realise a bike is required to partake in the Silly Commuter Beer Race?

    How do you all identify each other...?

    A single white band of material around your left bicep?

    It's easy, you just look for the bandy of slightly sweaty people in lycra...

    Yep. 6'4" too. I'll be there with the feet shaped wheels (in a softshell, so that counts as bikey-enough), in about 20-30 mins or so.

    Be there at 6
  • I may be able to pop in. So, there's four Ents (JZed, HH, CP and other CP) and Gimli (MM). That leaves IP as Aragon. Bagsy Legolas for me then.
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.
