Man, when I cycled along that off road path a few months ago, I got 3 punctures in an hour. It's full of flint :-(

Under one month to go now..

Do we hae a route confirmed yet????

same as last time I think plus south to Greenwhich through tunnel then along to north Woolwich through tunnel and back along the South side to Greenwhich park.

Someone has to get a video of thirty-plus bikes ridding through the tunnels.

i have a dv camera.....il do it:)

I'm up for it again (greenwich finish - yay!)

re. 17 I'll have my hands on the bars, given my balance is going in my old age, besides I don't need my hands to know where the old fella is.

If each of you can rope in a friend, fixed, single speed, geared, what ever we would have just shy of 60 riders.

That would be impressive.

Would love to come on my ss (haaaa - getting in first) but am worried i won't keep up. What speed you guys and gals go at? Greenwich finish

your be fine...its a medium to slow pace.....well lets just say murtle could keep up so your be fine:)

right thats it................not going then...........

haaaa......its either you or hippy.....hippy's not here so your going to get all the jokes aimed at you.....sorry:)

hippy come back....pleeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!

hmm.. if I'm not busy at work or at climate camp, I'll be there! I'll hold off putting my name on the list for now though..

31trum(murtle) hippy come back....pleeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!

pining after him are you?

erm...........no....

I was worried on the last one, but it wasn't so bad.

With the exuberance of the start, the pace was a bit high but it settled down. There was communication along the line (AKA shouting), and we stopped for punctures, comfort breaks and saddle adjustments.

Get a couple of mobile phone numbers at the start in the unlikely event of being left alone, and you'll be fine.

Seriously; I managed it last time. Nobody complained about me hanging off their wheel for a free ride, either.

im not at green man festival so its all go for me,
we've been talking about having the prototype hip pouch ready for the ride so people can see how it rides/play with it etc
i plan to have about 3 made up hopefully so the people i promised can try them out for the whole ride

:)
i better get sewing
