2010-02-08 - Weekday Coastal Ride

Might be going again on Monday...

Failing that the weekend after I may also be going...

Well, another good day out there, apart from a broken rear mech.

Who is in. Beers at the Bicycle Shop one night next week. Get pissed up?

Oh yeah and skidding in the snow is fuckin awesome! Probably did 20m with no hands earlier!

I'm in. Skidded 10 yards on my arse earlier. Small crash.

Haha. When it came down big style last night, I headed out at moidnight. Thick snow. Bombed around the city centre and rode all out alleycat style, skidding round corners, sliding and slipping. Was awesome.

Snarbles up for some liquid, I'll tell fixy kids too.

Swish... How's about Thursday night?

Bone! Capital bound on the 23rd, make it a Tuesday?

I'm at the Arts Centre Tuesday. Howlback Hum Christmas Party.

Its the last gig of the year, its our crimbo party, Cakes and Ale are celebrating their single release, its three days before christmas, its only £5.00 and it's from 7:30 - 12:00. Come!"

I went to school with Charlotte Morris... Am tied up tonight though... How's about a new ye-har NVS drinks meet... Am working new years day though. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$! Hahahahahahahahahahha. Got a new project in the pipeline too. A Van Nicholas fixie. Looks like it will be cool. Will have 2 bikes for sale in the new year if anyone needs one...

NVS XMAS would be great but the next week is looking pretty chocka. How about 02/01/2010? Rumsey Wells? I fancy pie and mash and sinking a few.

So what's the other bike you have for sale Mark? The Claude?

Ah, I need to grab the money for the CB if I can - Christmas has drained me pockets...

Also, Dan, you know what I'm gonna ask...

Yes indeed mate.

Mark, fancy buying those cranks off me?

Yes mate that's fine. The CB is ready for sale (just needs a paint job and a front wheel). As soon as my new wheel comes, the claude gets sold. But yeah can get the money together if you can wait a few days. Don't get payed til the 28th.

Yeah I will have the cranks if the price is right (PM and I will see if Dom wants them)...

Oh and gem has banned me from a friday night ride this week for some reason.

On Christmas Day? How unreasonable? ;)

I'm praying that the snow will either clear or come down in fresh buckets. Either way I can go for a nice long spin. Even if this ice crap stays I can put in some offroad miles, but I'd rather head to the coast.

Christmas Day ride FTW.

Because this has been so successful in the past - me and a mate may be heading to Thetford in the morning, if anyone wants to come...

PM me early in the AM or call on: oh!, SEVEN, nein, Severn, for, nein, one, ate, hate, Fife, funf.

alright chaps,

back in norwich now, who's up for drinks then?

Birthday drinks at mine tonight (29th) and maybe some chili(vegan) so hot it is uneatable by all but myself.

Hello mate - I should be in, as long as nothing happens at work. One fatal crash and one burglary so far...

Ahaha! Am still getting over the Chrimbo cold. Happy Bday Ben. Am out riding on Friday night if anyones in. Usual sort of shit. Ride, drink, carpark sessions... General new years debauchery. Will make a new post when I get home. Peace out.

happy birthday mate,
i'm working tonight until 12 probably maybe too late...

got the day off friday, definitely up for a ride.

had a proper mental crash yesterday along pottergate. didnt notice the ice and my front wheel went from underneath me, going nearly top speed. slid for ages straight into a bollard. managed to move my body out the way but it hit me in the shoulder! all fine just a puncture and bruised leg.

let me know about friday! peace

yes!

Going to have to duck out: weather + long day at work = me already in bed.
