Tuesday Night Ride Club '09

http://www.bikemap.net/route/245403, courtesy of marcom. I think you get better print outs if you use the fullscreen feature (lacking on Bikely).

guys, do all please note this is on 28 not 21. people are working off an old script.

28 july. easy way to remember - that is 4 x 7.

Fixed... again :S

4 x 7 is 21, right?

That's a nice site, may considering using that in future. Bikely has been playing up for a while for me.

A tad late, but no access yesterday - excellent ride as ever Tuesday night, good to meet some new riders and a lovely route. 12 up already for the 28th, better get my name down...

TNRC 28/07/2009 - "The Way To People's Beds Is Via Their Herts (or "You're Welwyn There") Ride"

FYI, the route is here, give or take, going anticlockwise. It was 40 miles on 69" fixed in 2h02 for the reccy, but should be far more pleasant and sociable around the 2h30 mark :)

Train departs Kings X @ 7.18pm (via Finsbury Park) // £10 Return // 40 Miles Fast & Rolling

ADDITIONAL TRAIN INFO:

• The train will most likely leave from platform 9b. This is one of a few 'extra' platforms, tucked away through an entrance half-way up the left side of platform 8.

• Facing the direction of travel, the doors open at Finsbury Park on the left, but all stations thereafter open on the right (so shift bikes at that point). On the return journey, all doors open on the left.

• The 7.18pm train arrives in WGC @ 7.46pm. The 7.36pm train arrives 11 minutes later.

• Return trains @ 9.58pm, 10.27pm, 10.30pm, 10.50pm (the last realistic train for Sam's 11.50pm connection), 11pm, 11.32pm, 12.09am.

Really sorry for f*cking up your formatting, no idea why. Here's an attempt to fix it.

jedininja - I take it you've followed this thread for a while, and know what's required as far as fitness and equipment, in which case... you're in!

@ - bmmf saves jedininja from a fail, and doesn't make a sarcastic comment about it, shock! must be the responsibility of leading the ride has matured him somewhat ;)

I knew I'd be treated kindly. I'll be fit enough! looking forward to it...

Also its of utmost importance you bring a good front light (fully charged rear helps too). None of this commute bollocks and knog hipster shit up front.

We need to be seen from space.

^ quality post Ved/Zed . i just shot my Gran into space at no little cost and i told her to look out for a series of lights traveling quite fast in the herts area on the 28th of this month. Come on guys , don't let my gran down

Bollox to ya! Just stay behind someone who has a decent light and can preferably see when the darkness comes down

Lol

"I can't see properly in the dark anyhows, my eyes are fucked, good job I have this awesome knog 5-led bad boy to show me the way"

LOL Thats the truth. Now that I am going to become a regular on these rides. A new light will be my first purchase once I get paid. Need to follow that up with some clear prescription cycling glasses

Mike - if you don't get one in time for the next TNRC you can borrow my Hope seeing as I'm oot of the country. You've got shorts that need replacing!

Believe you me, I have a long list of things I need. Thanks for the offer. I definitely won't have a light sorted by the 28th

bumped to help polowannabe - come along dude

Have you done your back-up reccy yet?

Let me know if you've got any mods in mind.

not yet dude, will be either weds night, thursday afternoon or friday night. hard to pin down due to whim and fancy. whim and fancy are not the forum names of a couple of noobs. btw, from what you said on saturday i don't think there will be any reason to stray from the route.

Can't make this one. Was really looking forward to it but work travel plans render it impossible. Early August TNRC for me then. Have fun on the new route.

shame claus, but at least it might bring the average mph down for us mortals ...
