Cambridge to the Coast - April Bank Holiday Weekend

I picked up the bike yesterday but I'll ride fixed for this, I don't want to be the odd one out! (that's unless anyone else is riding geared?)

I wish I was.

Ok, having spoken to Josh at Polo last night I am going early Saturday morning (6am) to London with Josh and Devon. I presume we will then eat a large breakfast or in Devon's case a whole snickers bar before meeting the people who cycled up on the Friday. Hopefully we will be able to navigate the mean streets of London without getting punctures, mugged for our Rapha or lost before heading down to Brighton. The worst part of this will be getting through London. Once in Brighton we will find Devon a park to sleep in for the night whilst the rest of retire to a hostel. Josh and I spoke of leaving Brighton fairly early on the Sunday to get back to London by about midday or a bit later. Everything will be shut as it is Easter Sunday and has to be. From here I may get the train back to Cambridge depending on how I feel and the time. I do not intend to stay in London on the Sunday night.

What are other people doing? Is this doomed to fail? Do I need to cancel my order for a pink custom cashmere lined Rapha tarp?

This is really complicated now . Can you all reach consensus on when and how you go so i can decide not to come because it won't suit me .

can we do this on sunday? sunday early train to london, then cycle to brighton. then back on monday?

This is really complicated now

Agreed...

me, Barney, Dev-cambridge to Brighton. Brighton to london-train to cambs.
Everyone else-Don't give a fuck! (except Taxi who set up this thing and will end up going alone at this rate!)

starting saturday morning, early!! but you can catch up!!!!

Eddie, why do you want to go on Sunday?

Whatever happens, I am riding down a bit at a time over the whole weekend.

because i cant get two days off work and im working sat AND sunday.

I seriously don't see any reasons why not start on Sunday. That way crack fox might be able to come as well.

Leave Sunday early morning. Be in brighton by evening, sleep and come back on bank holiday no worries. Simples.

is the Canadian coming?

Sunday down monday back for me . No rapha , black tyres

Let's talk about it tonight. I'm not riding but I'll be at the pub.

Sunday down monday back for me . No rapha , black tyres

Looks like me and Mexican Eddie are going down Sunday ......Gawd elp us !

Less than a week away.

I might not be in for this anymore, will let you know thursday for sure! but provisionally IM OUT! plus there saying snow for this weekend! so maybe another time?

I'm really up for this now Josh isn't gonna be there ;)

I was planning on going down on Saturday with Barney, Devon and Josh but because Josh has pulled out I'm not 100% wether I want to go as I am worried about holding the barndoor express up!

If it's anything other than glorious sunshine I'm out. What's the point in going to the beach if the weather is shit?
