2010-04-10 Sat - The London Tweed Run 2

is the colouring-in man getting any goodies?

:^{)}

If it's not in a Happy Meal, I'm not going.

Jacqui, would love to be there, alas have business here so cant make later.
another time.

She can't make it?

no you donut, go back to your happy meal ;-)

See you there Jacqui!

I shall be limping my way there - the things I do for prizes :)

FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY - I am so sorry for the confusion. Don't go tongiht. . . Friday. x

bugger can't do Friday unless its around 5.30-6

is it? Where and when? We don't need to be at the Duke for more than it takes to pick up your pressie.

Afraid someone is meeting me there for 6.30 so I can't do before then C..

C&H in Clapham, fuck it I've just thought about it some more and it's fine - will just be a little late there and I'll just be in the Duke earlier for a pint of cold stuff

cool. good.

Claire, shall I pick it up for you? you're on my way home after all.

Friday it is

If my marshalls would be so kind as to meet me at the Duke of York (Clerkenwell / Rosebury Ave) EC1R 5DU at 7pm.. it would be most appreciated.FRIDAY...

Will be there on my way back from work, won't know until friday if I can stay a bit or not though...! I love Happy Meals! Thanks!

Nice vid, and top tunes. Last one samples Al Stewarts "Small Fruit Song" to great effect - awesome, never heard before.

C&H in Clapham, fuck it I've just thought about it some more and it's fine - will just be a little late there and I'll just be in the Duke earlier for a pint of cold stuff

I need to get off to the C&H too of course C. We can ride back at a reasonable time together.

Right - think I might be able to be there on Fri. I have to leave at 7.01 though to zoom back home in time to go out again.

I should be there from 6 though, if any other marshallengers fancy a quick one.

Dunno what happened about the stall on Sat but it seems to have got lost in the noise. still - unable to do it now in any event...

Still thinking, and similing, about this a week-and-a-half later. Sat around in my breeks last night to try and recreate some of the atmosphere :) Can't wait for another 12 months for another Tweed Run; thinking about flying over for the New York one...

If you can't wait there's a couple of other tweedy type events:

Boulogne Rally - http://www.theoldbicycleshowroom.co.uk/events-108-c.asp - already mentioned this, a gentle 25-miles around the pre-war GP road circuit on old bikes stopping at tabacs for beers.

L'Eroica - http://www.eroica-ciclismo.it/english/home.asp - first time this year for me, 100 miles on gravel roads 'round Tuscanny

Already booked the day off for the Goodwood Revival, cheaper on the Friday.
