While the cats away...

"while the cats away" appropriate title for you then RJM, eh???

am i the only one that thinks its a bit strange that everyones girlfriend/wife is away for the weekend........theres somthing going on

I did think this even b4 my girlfriend told me she was going away. Now I am V suspicious

bike widows weekend????

Goddammit i'm in taunton this weekend. Wonder if i can get back from taunton, back home, pick up bike, and make it to the bandstand all before 12 on Sunday - and I'll be sure to have a cracking hangover too.

ps. Where is the hyde park bandstand?

if you go into Hyde Park via the Hyde Park Corner entrance and swing a left down the path, heading towards the Serpentine, it's on the right hand side of the path, set back a bit.

I think :-/

I'm up for a bit of a spin too. It so happens I'm off to Brighton on Sat and was thinking of riding, but would have been strange and possibly a bit crazy doing it twice in 7 days! See you there sunday (probably.)

31trum damn, just been told it's a mates birthday tomorrow, believe it or not going to Maidenhead of all places....not sure who said they were moving there. i'll keep an eye out for fixies tho.
also not sure what state i'll be in on sunday...so count me out, unless i'm well. and just find out were everyone is.

Yeah, that'll be me! I'm moving on the 19th... great job, but I still can't believe it... always disliked that small town boy racer chav attitude. So if your mates know about any fixed gear riders around then I'd really appreciate a heads up.

Love to meet you guys, but I'm heading out with some pals over the weekend, If i'm around though I may head over to the meeting point to say Hi

there's a small LBS on the main street, giant stockists really but they do all the essential maintenance that anyone may need...

have a good one though

Looks like it's physically impossible to get a train from Taunton back to London sufficiently early on a Sunday, so current plan is to grab a bike and chase you guys to wherever you are :)

erm. I mean head back to London and grab a bike... I'm not cycling all the way!

ok, it seams Hyde park has two bandstands :S

The real one is marked on the map under the 'places' tab

that's the one to the east of the park, along the serpentine if you're coming from the saarf west innit

yup, my bad for pointing out the other one - everyone can blame me for the confusion that'll no doubt happen on sunday ;)

looking forward to this.
praying:

a, it doesn't piss down
b, my bike doesn't break
c, I don't do something involving injury beforehand.

all those things are very likely..

wrap you self and you bike in bubble wrap and we will all do the no rain dance

Where are you guys going? I'm confused ...

LOL!

hah, strangely, I do know a bit about how to do a rain dance..but not one to prevent it.

otherwise I'd be gettin' on da floor!

I take it to do a no rain dance you do a rain dance but backwards

to be honest it wouldn't be a lot different!

so I should do the chants backwards as well?

that might be difficult

lpg pub /ride anywhere

lpg Where are you guys going? I'm confused ...

straight to the nearest pub if it starts pissing down ;^)

every forecast I've looked at says persistent rain :(

it's a Sunday, and God wants to piss on us

bastard
