GSIAD VIII (LFGSS 10th Birthday Slam)

well this should get interesting..

How many k's does one of these entail?

interested

well just plotting the pubs using bike setting on google maps we have 35 miles. of course we are likely to add to that considerably under the influence. and none of us live at the trinity or the slaughtered lamb so will need a bit more in the legs for getting to start/home

looking at > 56km minimum

Long ride, I'll need to think about nutrition for this. Where does the best Kebab?

We should find somewhere with a vegan option incase Oliver Schtick or any of the other weirdos come.

E.Mono Kentish Town.

The Fields Beneath 30 for 30.

K is not performance enchancing.

Not recommended.

oliver can pop in to the vegan chicken joint when we are at the Chesham. and pick one up for me too (if the queue allows)

this ride looks like a classic OG affair. Win.

In. And I'm drinking again!

Only when google have 'as the gsiad crow flies' setting will we truly know.

In the fuckin diary. Coming on full 2008 bike for this one.

Snaps.

Rad brakless Nagasawas. Archie's Grobag full of locks.

yep that's the way to play it skully.

my 2008 monoc (bottom) and my 2017 monoc (top). the only part on the original that is on the current is the Phil front hub. not even the same frame - just exact same size.

Proof, as if we needed it, that Phils are the most 531 hubs out there.

i've been wanting to do a forum ride for a while (long time lurker and occasional Classifieds dibs'er), and this seems like a good one to start with..

anything i need to know? and how/where/when do i find you guys?

thanks!

It's all on the first post - we'll start from the Souths pub around 1145 (but come in earlier to have a pint or two) and follow our benevolent leaders from there.

We should do feeder rides too! I'll be starting from Camden.

There won't be very much earlier, pub only opens at 11.30. You do know this is in the AM don't you?

'feeder rides', eh?

Guess I'll be setting off before the cockerels have finished '-doo-ing',
from outer (Welsh), West London,
so could collect people along the Uxbridge Road,
posing the intriguing opportunity of breakfast pizza at my 1st stop off the day
at Wests venue of the Red Lion in Ealing.

15 minutes is plenty of time for some pints!

I'll join you from Camden, always need instructions to get about when Down-South

thanks. i saw the rundown but wasn't sure if we're all just meeting there to head off, or earlier (as you said) for a drink or three. also if there were secret handshakes or head nods to look out for ;)

see you guys there!

Don't tell anyone but the traditional secret greeting is to stick two fingers up to someone and say hello toss pot, if they don't hit you, it's one of us.

only just seen this thread. made me lol.
hope i can make it - all depepends on whether i have to drive in the evening - i'll have to be really nice to the misssus!
