They were so lucky with the rain - got absolutely soaked on the way home...

It's back again, and this year's event will be on Thursday May 31st.

i'll pop by after work has been fun the last two years although i didn't spot any forumengers there last year
the wind howling round canary wharf can get a bit nippy at times
bring spare jumpers if it isn't forecast sunny and 24 degrees

Go Green 13!

Go Green 14!

I saw it on TV last year, now that I work in CW I should probably make the effort to see it in person this year...

This pretty much how I remember that day.

thank you

I'll probably be there as it's just round the corner from home. Rode the loop last week and the wind is definitely a killer!

It was in my hometown of Redditch recently:

It's in my hometown of Colchester next!

I'll be there from 6 I guess.

Forum corner this year?

where east india avenue meets the circuit
nice bit of space parking / bike bays close by, sun on our backs

Anyone there now? What time did it start? Only just got free of work...

I'm watching out of the office window.

Programme:
18.00 Canary Wharf Corporate Grand Prix Challenge
18.50 Riders form up on start/finish line
19.00 Race starts (1 hr/5 laps)
20.30 Podium ceremony and presentations.

Go Thomson Reuters! We are defending champions and I very much hope we keep it. I was going to try out but was a bit broken at the time so I thought there was no point. Maybe next year.

You can do it with your own bike this year for the first time, there seems to be a man doing it with panniers..!

I'm here with Claira's parents. Look out for grey jacket and white cap with red stripe (no camera!).

oh shit, didn't realise it was today.

I'll be there. Hopefully.

I hope I get to talk to those cheerleaders again.

Does anyone know what time the race starts?

First race is 6pm, main race 7pm.

With cheerleaders.

hmmmm cheerleaders

hmmmm cheerleaders

^^^ Thanks!
