Jonny I'm sticking to blackcurrant and sodas tonight..before I get there anyway :)
I managed to stick to two beers last night and had a serviceable roll out to Greenwich about 10.30pm so it can be done, I think I just get a bit overexcited... anyway see you later dude!
-
• #312

Isle of Dogs is a doddle: Come out of the tunnel, through the park gates and follow the road to the left and then take a right at the end of the road which takes you to the main road. Turn left and follow it for about two miles and you come up to the western end of Canary Wharf.
Then it's straight up to Victoria Park

I'll be there about 8ish still not feeling ready for laying down a time but I'll operate the stopwatch.
-
• #316
What time do you guys assemble?
Looking at the map it's only up the road from work, so it would be rude of me not to turn up.
-
• #317
I'm going to pop over, but can't stay too long, got to get back south for half nine, so should be there for sevenish.
-
• #318
crikey, with this weather the temptation to pack in work early and get down there now is beginning to overwhelm me.
(dreams of drinking beer in sunshine)
-
• #319
I'm thinking of bailing out of work now as well.
Where do the steeds get locked up?
-
• #320
There are railings around the pub, with the bikes locked on the inside of these they seem to be pretty secure. There are seats outside too for lovely warm evenings such as this.

• #321

-
• #322
i will there from 8 - 11.
but it looks like others are heading there for sevenish. possibly earlier.
see you later.
-
• #323
Fcuk it I've been drinking for the last few hours, I'm heading up in a min(once I've changed my tyre, I managed to skid through my 28c in 2 days!). I'll see everyone there.
-
• #324
Too hot to cook, so I'm going to eat there. Guess I'll be there as soon as I've dragged myself off the sofa.
-
• #325
Won't make it along tonight, stuck at work.
Have fun, and I'll hopefully see you all soon.
Good to see the hard core who did turn up even in the rain. nice one for letting us into your place RJS and seeing your master computer(thats about all I remember from the night).
Next week should be good, I'll bring the 13t sproket and see if sub 2 mins is poss. Should intresting.
Ed I was just wondering, did you keep your trouser leg rolled up all the way home in the car?
