Birmingham this Sunday

Hey folks. I'm heading over to Brum on Sunday with my bike. I'm meeting up with MotherGirl at the Sunday polo game to collect some stuff she's been hanging onto for me. I'm thinking a trip to Urban Coffee, pootle about brum a bit and then head back to Cov.

Anyone interested? Probably won't be a massive amount of riding, but good chance to meet some of the Brum crowd, watch a bit of polo, get some decent coffee etc :)

Not sure on times, probably aim to be in Brum for around 11am/12pm but that's just an estimation.

Sorry me old china, away this weekend.

Back at work today so my weekends are pretty much buggered before 4.

I'm not gonna be about, down the smoke with Keval.

I shall make the effort then. I'll be in touch about travel arrangments Steve. Might jump on at Long Buckby.

That'd work well I reckon. Also, I bought a stem from the forum yesterday, so hopefully will have it by tomorrow, so I won't need to borrow the two stems you offered to lend me mate! Save you carrying them :)

Just looking for a seat post now. 26.6 I reckon, maybe 26.8 at a push (have attempted to sort out the seat tube/clamp area tonight).

Right, hopefully this isn't too early, but there is a train from Long Buckby at 10:11, which calls in at Coventry for 10:33 and then onwards to New Street (11am). Does this sound feasible?

The reason I suggest this train is to make sure we get to B'ham with enough time to catch the polo guys; they're playing from 10am for approx 3 hours. My thoughts are, get to New street, ride down to High Gate park and hang out for a bit (why not have a go?) and then maybe head north to Urban Coffee, maybe pootle about a bit. Then head home mid afternoon.

I'll aim for the 10:11 and let you know when I get on.

Awesome :)

Need to be at the station for 10:20 at the latest. Need to buy tickets and whatever, and there never seems to be enough time to do that and get bikes to the right platform.
