Or even better - get a forum whip-round going to get you a replacement!

(Schwinn FTW kattt!)

We leave at 7pm and will take in the sights and sounds of West London (darkness and honking) - the plan is to go via Hyde Park/High Street Ken but I'm open to a trip down the Kings Road/Fulham Palace road instead. See y'all there.

The most direct route would seem to be along Knightsbridge/Cromwell Road/Old Brompton Road, or is that being avoided deliberately for some reason?

Much of a muchness, really, but just wondering.

That's my normal route and it is quieter. Cutting through the park allows you to avoid most of the bad traffic, buses, pedestrians and large Mercedesessses in Knightsbridge.

^^ Both routes are full of Chelsea Tractors, Rollers and militant lycra clad roadies on carbon.

Fuck Schwinn!

Tardis FTW

Yup!

Last night was good, all good. Met some very nice chaps and lasses for which I am still trying to put names to faces. I won't mention any in case I missed some out.

Well speedy through town, especially the lady with the gold frame.

Right. Looks like that as of now this is the crew headed to West Beers tonight.

There were some last minute additions to the other rides and if you do plan on coming along please post up and let us know so we can get an idea of who's showing up.

I'll be in Trafalgar Square over by the steps to the National Gallery right at 6:30p. The tall handsome man is likely to be a tourist, I'll be the balding guy with the red/white Gazelle bike and a bag that has my avatar stitched into the back. My phone number is in the phone number thread.

Sweet, I'll aim to get there between 6:30 to 6:45. (Blue frame, camo messenger bag...)

Can't wait for the end of today. I'm heading west with jaygee, we can't wait until 7pm to leave.

You forgot the rugby players on mountain bikes, my favourites :(

I will be the drunk china man sitting in the corner somewhere... come over and say hi...

I will certainly do! I saw your post on the West drinks thread.

veevee no leaving early this time! :)

and schwinn does rhyme with for the win.. no coincidence there.

I feel a new T-shirt coming on ...

Great time at east last night, suffering this morning, hangover not quite gone yet, and falling asleep at desk....

I've got a day off tomorrow so might stay until 10pm. ;)

Nah. You have the route now and just general levels of unorganisedness might have us leaving 5 minutes late anyway.
