    Jesus some of you have your priorities all wrong, you know who you are :evil:
    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.

    Looks like the 4th is the date. I might struggle to make it as I'll be riding back from Brighton that morning, but PT still works doesn't it?

    I'll only buy you a Guiness if you're on your bike.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Isn't Richmond on the way back from Brighton? Just rock up at the pub and start early, although you may be a little worse for wear by the time we get there.

    I'm fairly confident that will be the case. I'll be there at some point.

    We could have a fight... Bottom Bracket vs Commuting all ride up on bikes and lay into each other... It'd be like the 1950s again mods vs rockers... on bicycles

    Us oh-so-clever CC-ers would hide porn mags in the bushes (phnar phnar) and undergrowth (yuk yuk) beforehand. The poor BB-ers would be far too easily distracted... :wink:
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

    I'll be along trying to cadge a pint or two after having experienced the feeling of having been mugged that I suspect my trip to the Olympics will result in............

    @SinonAH and Redvee - I think I will be going, I am pretty sure the calendar is empty and I am owed a day/night pass. I probably won't cycle though, I will take Wilma for a walk. Well, I might take an MTB.....

    Fecking long drive for walkies though....

    The image it conjured up for me was more a load of drunk blokes in road shoes trying to stay upright whilst pushing each other and taunting. It all got a bit Benny Hill.

    I am from Bottom Bracket. I am in here in the sense of entente cordiale, but if you guys wanna kick off on the 4th...........I might have to bring a note from me mum.

    BTW, are there any scantily clad Girls in lycra gonna be there or is it baggie shorts, beards and fixies? :D

    If I'm not wearing red trousers it'll be baggy shorts, someone else can bring the beards and fixies. I hope some of the girls come along, always nice to have some more fragrant company.
    If you do come along I might even buy you a drink in a similar spirit of lime cordial.

    I'll bring a beard and a fixie if that's OK? And a coupla Bristolites in the back seat all things being equal.
    FCN 5 belt driven fixie for city bits
    CAADX 105 beastie for bumpy bits
    Litespeed L3 for Strava bits

    Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.

  • I'll head to the park for some Brompton training on the 4th then, that way I can scalp the lot of you when you're chatting about bikes :P
    Why? Because I'm guaranteed a seat all the way in.

    I think if I was ever scalped by someone on a Brompton, I'd be emotionally unavailable for quite some time. :|
