check it out, we're in there in the open men.

so who's going to come up and support us? There's a campsite and bars and we'll need some mechanics if anyone wants to help?

I notice they have a sportive for us roadiescum.. it's too close to L2P though so I'm out.

Nice one slack. Just back from 'training'.. I need to work hard!

are they full up yet?...thinking of entering Rollapaluza team too....

yeah, full right up. they are going to try and lengthen the route to allow more riders but i expect these space will be filled by people that have already entered if they become available. we had our entry form in 2 days after they were released to get a space.

Eastnor Deer Park- Memories of mud and sheep tics. Good Luck, gentlemen

I presume you will all be riding SS?

Good luck guys.

I am the only member who is riding SS at the moment.. This is a request for some forum peer pressure to get Roberto, Slack, and my anonymous friend to HTFU! I have gearie bts ready to go on if I will slow everyone else down.
My 'training' has levelled off and my knees hurt.. I'm riding about 130-150 miles a week, almost all of it is in my 23mile commute.
I did an offroad lap of RP yesterday in 35 minutes.. I'm plan to build up to doing 2-3 of those laps twice a week. is that good?
Roberto, Tommy, Object, MrSmith, infact anybody who wants to do some offroading please HELP me get out more - Any advice appreciated - only 8 weeks left!
Thanks, Prav x

Prav. The diary is packed until our move in date of the 9th.
After that I'm in. Every Saturday until the event?

Actually I can probably do the Bank Holiday Monday if you're free too.

ooohhh - I can feel the bromance growing in my heart - you're on mate!
That 20kg lump of metal you ride should handicap you enough that I will look fast.. right?

Possibly. What ratio are you pushing?
Bear in mind that I've got the fat tyres for added drag and it's only a 38*16 SS or 38*18 Fixed.

Tommy, stop watching the thread and put your damn name down ;]

34x16 / 34x17 fixed. its been good to me :-)
Tommy - bring the baby-blue-bodge..
Would Hippy dig out his GT if I promise him it will count towards his training?

I'm still gonna get you out riding dude - not this weekend or next but maybe the 10th/11th. This time you need to HTFU and do the extra miles to the station instead of getting a lift :-). How about the Surrey Hills Killer Loop with some added singletrack next time?

Killer loop is a definite.. I'm on it. After the last ride i was frustratingly under-knackered.
I prefer getting the train, hopefuly James will read this and buy a bike-rack or STFU and train it from Clapham like the rest of us Londoners..

I can't do the bank holiday w/e I am away. I might beable to do sat p.m but would not beable to get to Watlerloo until 1pm I think.

34x16 / 34x17 fixed

I suspect you're lighter machine will make the climbs a lot easier, but I'll kick your ass on the way back down or along the flat (hopefully) ;]

MOnday 5th May:
1 - Provenrad
2 - Object

Sat/Sun 10/11th May:
1 - Momentum
2 - Provenrad
(3 - Tommy?)

Unlikely I'll have time to get the GT out and dirty. Maybe after June.

i'm doing this mountain mayhem thing in a mixed team. don't even have a mountain bike, i suppose i better get on the case if its only 8 weeks away.

10 th / 11 th I'm Scott's biatch I am afraid.

This Sunday am?

Likewise, I'm out on the 10th & 11th

So Bank Holiday Monday and then Saturday 17th!

Sorry Tommy - cant do Sunday.. I've got a big BirthDay thing on Saturday night.
What about this Saturday AM?
Open invite people!! (I can lend a bike if its someone I know and they are 'MTB-less' )
