2009-07-04 Sat - Dunwich Dynamo 2009

Frankly that is two too many. But I'll let it slide.

I've even got so far in my preparations for this ride as to consider which type of non-cow Haribo I'll be bringing. I'm thinking Gummy Bears and some of those sour ones. hmmm
I didn't think Haribo made anything without adding as shedload of beef gelatine.

Crispin: I've just sent an email to Barry Mason from southwark cyclists, that he can pass my ticket on at will. I can send out a second one saying that he shall pass it on to you, if you give me your details?

Is it just a coach back to London once everyone's arrived in Dunwich?

Yeah, coach and a furniture truck for bikes ...

:D

This has blown my mind. I'm pretty damn happy.

:D
I'll even forgive the emoticon, it'll be nice to have the ability to eat Haribo again when I'm out cycling. Haven't done that in many many years.

Surely the insipid advertising is enough to induce cock vomiting in anyone.

That'd be great mate, I'm on a bit of a shoestring and anything to keep it cheap.

PM me your details, I'll send an email out.

Hell for cyclists is being stuck on that coach and watch it drive by your house in East London.

And be careful with your precious in that furnture van

Now can I suggest a further category? That would be half way stop and back or Dunmow and back. I ve done the latter one year as I had to be some where on the Sunday. The roads are deserted so don't worry about the traffic.

Or the reverse... train out to Dunwich, and then ride back ;)

No idea yet. I've only just started chilling after work and exam stress so haven't put in major miles anywhere. I may do... but if I do it will be a last minute "fuck it" and then I'll be in like Flynn.

You still doing the maths this week VB?

We'll have to do it between just the 40 of us, I'm afraid. ;)

It looks as if the underline wars are still in full swing!

Hooray, excited counting fail. I need just four more forumengers to stop me looking like a cunt.
