    BBQ stuff

    heres a list of the thinks i think we will need for a bbq. ok i dont have much of a clue about what people actually want for a bbq but this i think is the basics

    portable/disposable bbq units
    sausages
    burgers
    chicken drumsticks (optonal)
    finger rolls for sausages
    normal round rolls for burgers
    something to drink
    paper plates
    some means of lighting the bbq
    what are brakes for again

    Hi
    Do we know how many will be attending and how many are wanting to stay for the BBQ so we can get enough food.

    Also how far apart do you lot get when out ie the distance between the slowest and the fastest ? Just that i have a set of two-way radio's, got them when i went to go out walking with a group doing a sponsered walk up Ben Nevis came in very usefull to keep in contact with the back marker's, I'm willling to bring them along if you want

    any idea how long the ride will last, I got a mate who might come along but depends on when the ride will finish.

    im guessing between 4pm and 5pm

    this is based on a leisurely pace with lots of stopping and food stop/stops

    Hi

    the computer is used, only done about 30hours worth of riding if that. Regards price i did put it on ebay for £50 but no bids so i'd accept £40. If you are intrested then let me know also if you are at cannock this sat i'll bring it down and if you like set it up for you to try out.

    Wanted to make it to cannock but can't because i'm on kiddie watch all day. The computer would be for my sister to set up with a turbo trainer so i will ask her about it and let you know. Do you have all the fitting/how to use instructions for it ?

    I'm looking forward to it but I'm also a veggie so a bit fussy on what my food gets cooked on or with :?

    Why not bud....we dont want you missing cannock now do we......

    Have been out on me bike today and faffing around mixing tyres...i think i've found the ideal setup for this dry trails weather....

    Hutchinson cobra xc airlight on the back and maxxis ignitor up front for grip on corners....tried them out and they rock....dead light and fast and without losing grip on dry shingle tracks...in fact i would rate them above my nobby nics which is a surprise cos i've sworn by the nics for a while now but when we rode llandegla they were frighteningly sketchy on the fast corners/berms.
