SCR outing?

linsen

So who is actually signed up for this? Obviously, if I was in the "in-crowd", I'd know who you all were when i look at the registrations, but "Attica" and "CJCP" weren't on the list

I'll be heading up the "slow" group. I shall endeavour to walk up NO hills, have fun and finish before everyone's gone home for tea....

attica

Attica = Rob Armstrong (shhh, not many people know that)

oops

until I'm up near the middle, or even the bottom third, I won't be doing this type of thing.

Surely you can be confident to finish in the bottom third :P :arrow:

D'oh!

I meant the top of the bottom third... :oops:

Snooks is right - you are clearly mad - I should have realised this when you mentioned running the West Highland Way a few weeks ago :roll:

If you aren't in the in-crowd what does that make me....no don't answer that!

For the record I think I am rider 872 out of 1001 but people usually call me Tim. I haven't checked the rider list to see if there are more than one T's on the list

Now if you can just post your addresses, the men in white coats will be with you shortly, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride...in the padded transit to your padded cells

Unfortunately on the day we all will be, with a fetching little plastic coated number plate and a techy timing dongle according to the site

The offer of the padded van will be good on the day cos my ar$e will be very grateful. Probably in the TMI category however

Maybe Snooks is right - you are all mad!!!

Are they offering long sleeved jersys with buckles on the cuffs?

I have mapped the route so we can see what we are up against (literally)

I hope I have done it right and if you can see all my private information then "oops" (don't think I've told mapmyride any secrets so we should be okay

PS I am most amused to see that mapmyride thinks that Biggin Hill is in the Bahamas

PPS I have obviously just revisited the website to find that the last hour of my life has been entirely wasted because it's all been done for us.

B*ll*cks

The mate from work who gave me his ribble is doing this. He is a serious club cyclist so I figured that as a mere commuter it would not be suitable for me

He GAVE you his Ribble? What did you do for him? :shock:

I have a suitable training route for you

Chingford-.Loughton->Robin Hood Rbout->High Beech->Lippits Hill->Sewardstone Road->Mansfield Hill (if you want a real challenge do it in reverse!!!!)

Then build it up till you can do it 6 times. It's what I'll be doing providing Seven Sisters Rd don't get me mid week until February.

Sorry - only just seen these replies :oops:

I told him I was after a road bike for my mid-life crisis He said he had a winter trainer that needed some work that he was about to get rid of It needed about £200 of work - bottom bracket, just about everything that the frame touched, seat post, saddle etc but the LBS still reckon it was a v good deal so I'm pleased. Just need to get out on it a bit - it's very light so a bit skitty for me in cross winds and I need to get more confidence but as I don't like a wet behind I'm not to keen on taking it out on wet roads :roll:

Back on topic - and to pick up DiggingDepper's point, I'm not a big fan of hills, though the ribble handles them a 100x better than the hybrid - but I need to overcome my fear so may well try the route suggested (but perhaps when its a bit warmer eh??? :twisted: )

Good luck to all of those taking part. I'm most impressed
