if they are following you on twitter get talking to them. still a week to convince them to let you fit Atacs and an SLR!

;)

did just before. will see

she got back to me. they have a strict policy on sponsored rides, etc. including no waiving of fees but she'll see if there's some way she can help me get access to a fresh bike

Out

Bus ticket available for a lucky someone...

What happened T4?

My mother has decided to visit for the weekend.

Darn! Never mind.

Just rent her a Ken Bike!

Tanya if you ride hard you can do it all while she's asleep. she'll never know!

It's good they're being so accommodating. It will be ace publicity for them.

Do you think they'll send Boris down for a send off / see in ceremony?

Naaah invite Ken! Srsly. He'd come, probably. After all, the scheme was initiated by his administration...

Is the TfL person Silka by any chance? If so, I'd be pretty confident she'd do her best not to scupper your plan.

i don't think they are interested in any publicity from these types of events to be honest. especially if they have a policy already on it

i would prefer to keep out all politics and any politicians, except maybe jenny jones — she's doing good things for cycling.

yes it is paul, she sounds lovely.

update on ankle: slight pain today when i move in particular ways but it's not sharp pain which is good. it's not swollen either. i think it might be fine, but am just taking it easy over the next few says

Oh that's brilliant! Tell her that Paul from the GOSH Paris to London ride (2006) says hi and that I still wear my TfL jersey!

will do paul

Re: Jenny jones yep. I was merely responding to the suggestion that Boris might turn up with a reminder that Ken started the wheels rolling on the scheme, no doubt supported by the greens.

It's actually quite funny that you said 'I'd rather leave out politics - invite the greens'!

It has to be said that if you're doing this for charity, then that itself is a political act. Are you doing this for charity?

yes i am. of course i see the hypocrisy. i just don't want to get into the whole ken or boris debate about who launched the bike scheme really.

... and, presumably, you have had a physio/doctor look at it?

Even if it seems like a trivial injury, professional advice is always good.

Cyclists do that a lot--'oh, I'll be fine to ride', since the lure of riding is so strong. :)

you are a wise one, oliver. will try do so this eve. thanks

60% chance of precipitation on Sat in London. No rain and cloudy on the Sunday. Hopefully it'll get it out of it's system by the evening. Going to be cool either way, so no stingy eyes from my powerfully salty sweat.

Just from the swimming at the end! Can't wait!

I've got a photo of Oliver emerging from the ocean that I'll keep to myself for reasons of decency/sell to The Sun for cash.

Anyone who doesn't have coach tickets back yet - try contacting this person on Twitter: http://twitter.com/#!/becksldrt

The stoney beach dance routine slayed me...

Looking forward to this, and a big thanks in advance to those who took up the organisation of a coach. I may have missed it up-thread, but will there also be a support van like last year to carry bags?
