Trip down to London town for the Tweed Run 2011

afterparty's open to anyone in tweeds

Excellent news, thanks Teddy!

I'll get to hang out at the end of ride party for a bit, but won't be about for the afterparty unfortunately.

It sucks a bit but I need to get things in order at the weekend, I'll survive.

What do you need to get in order?

Need to get my house in order!

I was on holiday last weekend, so am a weekend behind with Study, Housework, piano practice etc. Plus I've got a load of eBaying I want to do, and I'd like to get out on the Road bike early Sunday AM.

I've got your Entry Pack in the office today (As suspected yesterday it is just full of adverts) will be about all day, and will be doing late night shopping to get the last bits & pieces of the costume so give me a shout when you want to meet up for the exchange.

That's a poor excuse.

Still, if you're out on Sunday morning I could be tempted to take the Donhou out for it's maiden voyage (I know, I know, I still haven't ridden it...).

Do it!

You in if we do?

Hell yeah, come along for the ride, might have Ellie in tow is the only thing, may not be the fastest ride, although she's borrowing a trek at the moment and is pretty quick on it.

Absolutely.
I want to see your fancy new bike in the flesh.

OK, I better re-do the cabling and bar tape tonight then.

I am also up for a Sunday morning post Tweed pootle - although as I won't be back to Norwich until 1.15 on said morning, I may be being ambitious.

If the party is good tomorrow, then I'll stay, if not, I'll be back and getting a good night's sleep for Donhou ride numero uno.

hi Guys.

I'm going down on Saturday from Kings Lynn.
Got to drive into Cambridge station as track engineering work means a bus from Ely to Cambridge grrrrr.
then track engineering work Cambridge to Bishops Stortford and another bus means going into Kings Cross.

So, result is 09.20 from Cambridge to Kings Cross, arriving 10.09.

Anyone joining up?

We're all leaving from Norwich, arriving at Liverpool Street. You could drive to Norwich instead and come with? Or come and meet us in east London?

Norwich sausages & dry cure smoked back bacon sourced from Pickerings, going to bake some epic bread tonight.. think that's the train provisions sorted!

I have derby scones, cheese straws and brownies.
I would have made walnut muffins if I wasn't going out tonight.

I plan on getting the 7pm ish train home.

I appear to have no train ticket. Bum. Will see what I can do in the morning. Have not bought any food/drink yet.

i'm planning on buying a ticket at the station. aiming to get there at 7.35.

Have a good un you dapper cats

All ready for the off and suitably filled with Pimms?

We met Ewan McGregor, who was riding a Pashley. Nice bloke.

Lovely day chaps. Met Earng on Brick Lane and we went and stuffed ourselves with lush Vietnamese food at Song Que. Slow cooked belly pork was a good end to a jolly fine day out.

Nice pic, Ben, apart from my eyes. But that was my fault...
