New Members Compass Beer Rides: 7pm Departure Trafalgar Sq

hello all,
proper noob here .. only got my bike yesterday so today was my first time out on it and i am hooked!!
are the monday south nights still going ? i cant make it this monday but next month i reckon i can get to ts .. plus the pub is right near where i live anyway so its on my home .. bonus!

Yep far as I'm aware Souths still on Mondays, might come for my 'second time' next week, definitely worth it!
And looks like you live near me, pub is at the end of my road (Abbeville road), easy for both of us.

Special note for any newbies who fancy doing a ride out of London to Epping Forest (30miles, which is easier than you think).

It's the second Vintage Jersey ride next Saturday.

You don't need a jersey to ride, but be nice if you did. There's a guy coming who sells vintage jerseys. He runs the ebay store 'Convicts of the Road'. He's based in London, so you could collect before, or on the day. Plus JD (forum member) has a shop in Camden called 'What Goes Around', and has some jerseys in.

hi,
I'm coming to london next week. I'll have 600km in my legs then, so I'd like to go on a nice relaxing ride to east beers on wednesday, someone in?
cheers

don't you have to visit your girlfriend first?

easts is pretty quiet these days. Come to Wests on thursday, or Souths on Monday. Good luck with the riding, looks awesome.

who's coming to west this Thursday? I have to go to the White Horse anyway (to settle my alcohol addiction)...

raise yer tankards!

ps BlueQuinn I won't lead you on a white horse (goose) chase down the back-streets this time!

Wests is at the Crabtree.

ah shocker... where's that? (checks google) ahh on the waterfront up from Fulham. I may have to go 'via the white horse' but should be there. You coming Dov?

I'll be there. Riding from Centralés Londrés if you wanna come along.

From Trafalgar sq?

If you like. I'm only a 2 minute ride from there so I'll swing by if you want and pick you up.

Yeah that could be good. Day after exams finish, so i'm allowed to venture further than the Souths at the end of my road...
What kinda time would you be looking at?

Between 6 and 7pm. I'll PM you my number.

dov, think i told you where i work (BTC), you near? might be getting bike to do that sprint finish i owe you :)

I arrived in london yesterday. it was a really cool experience, not always nice to ride but a good challenge! I'll think about coming to west beers on thursday since I'll be on my way back to cologne on monday. But you are right, I have to ask the lady first.
cheers

Anyone wanting to ride out to Wests tonight we'll be meeting at Trafalgar square at half 6 leaving at 18:45.

im coming along too for the ride ! Dov , please for the love of god don't get lost this time ;)

I won't. I'm like a homing pigeon to the Crabtree. The Sloany Pony just threw me a little.

see you there then !

hi guys,
I'm back in cologne now.
thanks for taking me to west beers last week, big fun, especially the ride from trafalgar sq to the pub was nice!

@ DOV: sorry mate, still owe you a beer. maybe next time, I'll be back in london in oktober.

Hi, first post

Are the New Rider rides still taking place July 13-19?

Cheers - look forward to finally getting out with some others.

I'm happy to lead people to Souths or Wests (wherever the decided location of the latter is!) if need be!

Cheers Radius, I am interested in either (Wimbledon)

are people riding from traf this week? I've been a little silly and organised bball on the same night... ho hum, i'll be there for about 8.30 a sweaty mess of a man :)

How are rides looking for next week? Monday Souths or Thursday Wests?
