Isle of Wight Through the Night (a ThNCR deluxe edition)

right, brakes changed over, rear derailleur changed over, just tyres, index and pack now.

Jesus I didn't even pump up my tyres this morning for fear of fucking something up!

dont worry, I'm riding into the post office to test in a mo :)

I managed to rick my shoulder putting the unused track pump back in the cupboard too. Given I can't climb seated this is extra aggravation I didn't need - good job I'm getting the train.

Even thinking about pumping my tyres up has screwed me over!

falling apart old man :)

turns out also, I have just got some very good news, so I might buy a bottle of bubbles to celebrate at the pub :)

ooh.. exciting! Although I dread to think what sort of bubbles they might have in that boozer!

me too, I might have to bring my own. Already on first beer of the evening... hic.

If someone could bring a plug and iPhone charger I would be enternally grateful.

Have fun all!

(And yeah, if you're going to the King Ludd I wouldn't go any fizzier than the cider)

Gotta be Babycham in the IoW. Aiming for 8:30ish at Waterloo, see you chaps there.

On the train, arriving PH 21:06. What are you thinking Ben? Italian?

Whatever dude, it's the usual suspects plus 1-2 pubs. I'm easy so long as I can get some protein and some carbs.

@middleofnowhere we're next to the ticket machines

Any survivors? Or did the dinosaurs get them?

Oh yes we made it alright, but it seems somehow that the other thread gained the upper hand. A most exquisite ride :)

Aha, thanks for that. Looks like another fine jaunt.
