South East beers - Tuesdays @ The Roebuck, SE1 4YG

Maybe in for the Essex ride on the TT bike...

Anyone up for a ride on Sunday?

Corlis, hats and I (and possibly cupcakes) are planning on riding to Frinton-on-Sea in Essex.

It has a mile long sandy beach! Ok, so it may not be beach weather, but it's better than staying home and watching TV...

If we can get 4 people the groupsave cost would be £13 each for the train back.

We'd probably arrange to leave from Broadway Market at 9.30, or something like that. TBC.

Maybe? What sort of distance and hills.

Rosie and Tom are alive and enjoying their trip.

^ Good to hear!
I completely forgot to buy a lottery ticket. Bah.

I bought 2 but plans to buy a south-easties house for us all have been put on hold as I didn't win :(

Nope, im still as poor as yesterday...

So did I.

Ah thats so nice of you.

A little poorer after last night.

So any idea of distances?

I may bail on my own-instigated game of pre-pub basketball, partly because my ball is flat and I can't find the attachment for my pump to inflate it.

The forum appears to have had a fart just then.

I posted that I had an adaptor that you can borrow if you met me between se8 and nw1 and possibly even a ball too. I also posted that id rather you came to SEs. Fecking technology!

Back in england after avoiding rosie and tom in france. Hopefully see some of you tomorrow

Oh shit I have to go to Great Missenden this evening- promised a friend ages ago and didn't write it in my diary. Fuck fuck sorry sorry.
Anyone for TT tomorrow?

Does anyone fancy a pre-pub trip to Decathlon this evening?

(OSR, I’m looking at you... I’ll let you have my points)

hats I'm in for that! Time? I need a new saddlebag.

Hmmmm, possibly! I don't get out of here till 6pm tho, so it would be ~6.45 - 7pm by the time i get there?

At the rate things are going here, I won't be leaving the office until I'm spewed out at retirement age :(

But I was thinking of around 7.15/7.30 at Decathlon.

I need a new saddlebag.

Inspired by my inappropriately massive saddlebag at the weekend, I assume?

Ha! yes. But I'll head the other way. I need something compact for my road bike.

im in for drinks...

Im not sure about 10ton... But it may be fun as a group. I need to look into pannier bags.

I haven't been to beers for about, oooo maybe 147,000 years. So I figure that before the next ice age comes, I really should try to drop in. I'll be up in London tonight, but I only have time for a swift half either on my way from Kings X to Docklands, or coming back.

Will anybody be around early doors? Any people staying until closing still?

T_B, just letting you know its not at the Dover Castle anymore... Its now at the Royal Albert in Depford.

And it would be AWESOME to see you. Its been ages!

anyone about early doors? I finish at 4,15 today so I'll be at the pub by about 5ish.

will sit and work on my iApp if not.

Ha! yes. But I'll head the other way. I need something compact for my road bike.

I have a compact saddlebag too but have shunned it in favour of a bag that holds packets of biscuits and bags of jelly babies...

Im not sure about 10ton... But it may be fun as a group. I need to look into pannier bags.

Took me ages to figure out what you meant by 10ton there. Come, it'll be fun! OSR wants to buy snorkels!!

Yep, I spotted that it's almost in New Cross/Deptford now. I'm going to Limehouse, so I can carry on east to Greenwich, through the foot tunnel and straight up the Isle of Dogs.

Ah, shit it! I just realised I forgot lights though.

"We're not in Cambridge anymore Toto - we can't go riding around London without lights, now can we."

...thinking of a plan B to get lights...

Yes. I'm on an early shift too can make it by five. Been meaning to check out the new south easties pub for ages.
