    i would reckon i'd have more chance of dragging myself across to the dock toward the end of the month, mainly due to disorganisation but also a bit of cashflow. 23 / 24 jan might be achievable.

    Sort of, it did have an '8' on the front crossed out and a '9' wrote instead. I was told it was a printing error on the cover and the pages were OK. :x

    Hi All,

    Well, I am gonna be out on the town on Friday night for booze if anyone wants to join me - probably somewhere on Glouces road. Happy to PM my moby number.

    As for ride out - I will be doing a long road circuit of about 110 miles (if I get up early enough!) on Sunday. I will be out on Sat night too, so 110 miles is probably gonna turn out to be 50......!

    22nd of March I am doing the Bath cycle path on a Fixie and I am sure I will be going across Severn Bridge on a weekend before then anyway!

    PM me and I will give you details of my approx plans - training up for tri events and www.Exmouthexodus.co.uk (I want to do this fixed....)

    gtvlusso, how serious do you take the tri training? i could do with a kick up the backside if i do the bath tri as i'm intending (waiting to see if i keep my job before i shell out the readies).

    110 on sunday might be a bit much for me (given its 30 miles to bris), but i have fairly regular weekend visits that could involve more bike.

    I'm sick BIG time little itboffin has passed on one of those cool school bugs they seems to collect, just trying to take my mind of the horrid stomach pains and the thought of having to cycle 20 miles in the morning feeling like this.

    Oh dear. Yuk.Just a thought, but, do you think you're more susceptible with the mileage you're doing?

    it was my first thought, I may have overdone it just a little, i'm not a well bunny :(

    PS. All bets are off tomorrow, i'll be on the tourer but in no way will I be racing, i'll be doing my best not to chuck an organ :?

    Ahem, I think you'll find Gert Lush and myself also have plans to infiltrate tomorrow night.

    If Gert is wearing a particularly lumpy looking vest I suggest we scarper quicksmart.
    (I'm way too cowardly to go suicide bombing myself, but fertilizer is easy to come by in these parts and I'm not sure if Gerty could go Bin Laden on us or not) :wink:
