Saturday Night Ride

Midnight Mass back in May was pretty good but nothing much has happened since then as people have been away etc.

As Summer is ending (today?) but it's still quite warm is anyone up for another ride this Saturday night? There is interest from a few from last time, could even reach double figures!

Maybe start a bit earlier, 11pm at the Bull or beforehand in a pub...?

RSVP

id be up for it,

probably a bit earlier is better, as its saturday night and people want beer! -

where would you be riding?

id probably come if its a bit earlier.

im doing a sportive on the day, will try to make it down after anyhow!

Barry Bigbell says he might make it

Tell Barry Bigbell it's not an option, he has to be there.

Last time it started at midnight which was great because most streets were deserted. The earlier it is the more cars and drunks to contend with but whatever suits most people is best for a good turn out. Getting home at 2.30am left me knackered on Sunday so earlier is fine by me.

Riding is mostly round the city centre, Digbeth, Jewellery Quarter, Aston Uni etc whoever is at the front dictates the direction. I like Edgbaston for night rides, big wide streets with massive houses and round Brum Uni too, it might suit people from South side to finish going this way home?

Is 10pm preferable to 11? Anyone willing to confirm yet? BlowieBen? , Belgiangoth?

OK 10pm BUT unless anyone else is up for this I'm not bothering to ride 3 miles into town and find only 2 of us turn up and we could have met in Moseley instead

Well there will be 3 of us there at least. It's dry, not too cold so if anyone changes their mind be at the bull at 10.

I'm thinking of organising a piss up In a brewery next.

Last call. 5 now confirmed. Bull @ 10pm

Barry Bigbell didn't turn up, I reckon he new we would ride in the cemetry. He missed a good night.

Barry Bigbell is always there.

Tricky thing to organise. For me the interest is the empty streets, 10pm doesn't feel right to me, too many people leaving pubs and lots of taxis, 12pm is the right time but I see that not too many are up for it.
TBF had it been midnight I could have put the wife to bed and gone out.
