TNRC 2022 - Last fixehs in LDN

I'm just allergic to hills.

They're just little bumps and should clear up in time.

I'm out for this week :(

Solstice next Tuesday, 29 degrees forecast for Thursday. Ingatestone?

Hmm.. you mean this Thursday rather than next, right?

I do. The 16th.
Partly because I might not be around next Thursday.

Fair enough. I could definitely be persuaded, pending me being able to get some work done prior to then. Anyone else?

It'll be 2 nights after the full moon too, so should be pretty light

I put a thread up: https://www.lfgss.com/events/7364/

I've checked the calendar and it appears that this week contains a Thursday...

Good call. It would need to be somewhere pretty local (with a decent rehydration option) for me to squeeze it in though. Have we done Potter's Bar yet?

I think we haven't. Nor E4

I actually have a work social thing on Thursday but don't need to stay for the duration

I could just do my work event if there aren't any other takers

I’m up for Potters Bar, if you’d prefer to ride. What say @Ruserius and @cagimaha ?

Well I'll load the bike up with lights in the morning and we can make a last minute call I guess? I'll prob be getting the train if I'm coming

In! Will do the train thing probs

Yeah I’m easy. I’ll be WFH anyway and may ride regardless, so it’s no problem either way..

EDIT: aha I see G is now in, so that’s confirmed 😀

Alright. See you on the train in that case

Do we have any lurkers who are ThNRC-curious but not sure about pace or being left abandoned in the middle of nowhere, exhausted, cold and lost?

Would a "ThNRC newbies" ride be of interest? Next Thursday?

I could be keen depending on location

i am a long time lurker, just seems really hard to find time for anything atm. but i will commit to joining a ThNRC before 2023.

Ditto, I should make it out to one of these but tough to find the time, usually in the office on Thursdays, too many excuses, etc. need to pull my finger out.

Being in the office on Thursdays is ideal! Get thee to a train station after work, get to start point, ride, train, home.

Faff of bikes on trains at peak times from central though

You can't take bikes on trains before 7pm and the rush has usually subsided by then.

In a shocking coincidence, you may also notice that we arrange the start times to be reachable by the first post-7pm train.
