2009-06-06 Sat - Strawberry Fields Cambridge Ride

Leave the bike? You mean lock it up? i think it'll be alright underneath 20 other bikes.

To paraphrase dogsballs: This isn't London, my friend.

ok, will see, btw usually festivals make me feel bored after a little while

^ An indicator that you haven't taken enough drugs. :P

actually there is an enourmous safe bike park in the basement of the car park right next to the maypole, which would be ideal. you'd have to be a complete nonce to try and nick from that place!

Bikes will be fine! My bike has been powdercoated with anti-nonce™ too.

I might be up for this, need to check dates though!

Well.......I surrender

This looks like fun, shame it's the same weekend I'll be cycling from Rotterdam to Amsterdam! There's just not enough weekends...

Good people, my friend has cancelled the weekend away, so I'm back in for this..

Want to do this... Nocturne was fun last year though... Hmmm... Reason to get the geared bike built a bit quicker.

I'm guessing this is a relatively flat ride? Will be doing it fixed in any event...may swap out the risers though ;-)

It's quite rolling through Essex (not mountainous!). All the hills that are steep are short enough to honk up on a big gear.

^^ haha 'mountainous Essex'! I'll be rolling on around 68 GI so all should be sweet.

It's famous for it's mountains.... and slappers.

Is there a meet time and place for this yet?

It's flat enough. I did it on 79GI last time. Not the best set up, but I managed.

yeah 80GI and some drops ftw

but you'll end up waiting for everyone to catch up, cause you can't go slower than 20+mph on that gearing.

^^ good point, TIME and PLACE? where and when?

9am Hyde Park Corner?

what, at the marble arch?

two of us will be coming from cambridge, so plus minus 20 minutes or so if you could wait up.

Yup, Marble Arch I guess.

I'm going to have to bail on this as I've got to be in Southend that day. Balls.
