OT: Magnificat meet-up?

Bassjunkieuk

So with the big day fast approaching are there plans for the SCR massive to meet-up pre-ride?

As it's my first time joining a reasonable number of forums members for a ride that doesn't start at a cafe/Richmond Park/a bunkhouse in Wales I imagine it's going to be a bit trickier to find each other among the few thousand other riders who'll be patiently waiting at Newbury racecourse on Sunday :-D

I won't be there unfortunately. A new arrival in the family (nothing to do with me thank god) means the weekend will be spent visiting, and cooing over my new niece. Yep I'm well pleased, all the best bits and I can just hand her back if she screams or smells

Sorry to hear you can't attend but congratulations to the new parents :-)
Mind you with the time you set in the Dragon I'd probably have only held you up

I think there's only around 1500 people doing the Magnificat, so it shouldn't be out of the question to meet up beforehand.

What's worrying me is the stupid o'clock I'll have to get up at in order to get to the start line for 7am. That's gonna hurt more than the hills, I reckon.

It's for that reason I booked into a B&B at Tot's Hill :-)
