2010-04-03 - Egg run to the sun - London to Brighton night ride

So.. Gatwick. I planned to ride around the back entrance and cut through the footpath at Schlumberg house, ride around to the BP and stop in there. Seems that the police were waiting for us at the gate! Luckily with the previous experience, Matt and I knew how to handle the police. We told them how wet and miserable we were and most of us want to get the train back to london. After a few phone calls they let us in and escorted us up to the terminal. Shortly after that, they came in the building and pretty much ordered us to go upstairs and warm up in the terminal!

Good work. Which gate were they waiting at? The gate of the North Perimeter Road?

Dropout, I'm kicking myself that i didn't get your number. I had everyone elses, but as you turned up late i didn't get it. There was a little confusion when you stopped and waited, I didn't know you were stopping. Live and learn from my mistakes on that one, shame we couldn't have hit the bright gay lights of brighton together!

I might have inadvertently caused John to stop as I called him about braker being late. Sorry, Owen, I didn't have your number. I looked for Matt's, too, but it wasn't in the phone numbers thread.

Well done for leading this!
