2010-04-10 Sat - The Tweed Run 2 (Discussion)

so... turns out I may be free on this date, I know its all booked up but are you saying that if one was to turn up on the day one would be told to do one?

The ride has an events permit, and has taken extensive negotiation with 4 borough councils, several royal parks and the met police to pull off. The ride is very much a leader for future events, I believe. If this goes well, and we stick to the allowed 400 people, then the future (hopefully larger) events will be easier to organise, given (hopefully) past successes.

As Teddy said up-thread:

well. our event permit is only for 400. so if tons of extra people show up, i run the risk of a massive (in the neighbourhood of tens of thousands of pounds) fine from westminster council. so... i'm rather less than keen on people who haven't registered showing up to start the ride.

If you are desperate to come along, in tweed for the day, I believe Teddy is still short a few marshals, and will appreciate the help. You should contact him directly about this.
