It's cool you're coming, neverclever and estherbunny. Just a quick pointer that we're not meeting at Hyde Park, but at Hyde Park Corner, on the large central traffic island under Wellington Arch. Look forward to seeing you there!

Are you doing cards Oliver?Hm, no, I hadn't thought of that. Did you ever do cards for the February run, Crispin? I just realised that I can't remember you handing any out. If anyone wants to do some, you're most welcome!

Yeah but couldn't get them laminated in time. I'll see what I can do between now and next weekend. Can anyone laminate?

You can pick up a cheap laminating machine from Argosh, or I've got one at work.

Half an hour? Thought it was only a few miles. But ok that's cool. I'd imagine the traffic is reasonably quiet at that sorta time? Ahhh dunno. Cheers man
4 miles, in traffic, on roads you don't know, it could easily end up being best part of 30 min, might not be but that's how long I'd give myself in that situation
Traffic can heavily vary on a sat night. I've seen empty road and long tailbacks.

Crispin, using luminous ink will make you a king.

Thats quite exciting! Luminous ftw.
I might dig thru my collection of site/council/security hi-vis to find a gem worthy of the ride... -
• #148
Ha, hi-viz spoke cards. And it sounds as if it'll be a very musical ride.

neverclever... the blur song?
ha, yes! don't laugh! seeing them at hyde park later that week! it was my excuse to come in the first place but now this ride among other bicycle related activities have turned into the main attraction! a spoke card would be a serious treasure to us!!! i hope to get one! i'll think of something to bring from the states to share...

Long-time Blur fan here, my sister's got a ticket to the Goldsmiths Union show, which she's selfishly not giving to me for free the little swine.

It's settled! We're going and we'll hopefully be prepared --- we have minewt x2 lights, spare blinky lights, spare tubes, a gps, grenades and train money... will we need locks? We just "trained" this past weekend by doing a 50 miler to the beach complete with heavy drinking. Our plan is 3:30pm Heathrow arrival, then we're checking in to our room in Kensington and napping until it's time to meet at Hyde Park. Needless to say we're super excited about this.
