    Fresh bloody ow how exciting!!! have I told you about my time in the Sudan?

    wellll of course I was very very drunk .....

    You're in luck this Friday is in fact the anniversary of our first SCR Christmas party although this years party has been moved to the 18th, there will still no doubt be a good number of dodgy lycra wearing Internet freaks to mark the event.

    It's also a Friday and therefore compulsory to drink - FACT!

    Plus it might be someone's birthday :wink:
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    Yep - the Morpeth is a good place to meet lycra-clad weirdos. Check the Morpeth thread.

    You could always ride westbound on Embankment for some SCR action too. :)

    There may also be folks doing laps of Regent's Park in the evenings. I think London Phoenix do this (paging Rich158 to the thread....). Best check their website.
    FCN 2-4.

    "It stays down, Daddy."
    "Exactly."

    I'm also there most mornings and evenings doing a few laps, nothing organised though, just some extra miles on my way home.

    I might be there next week too. I'll either be on a Scott or a blue Kona.
    FCN 2-4.

    Oddjob, normally I'd kneecap you for that comment but as I'll be 'socialising' next Friday lunchtime before heading over to the 'peth that might actually be a good idea :lol::lol:
