2011-07-16/17 Sat/Sun - Dunwich Dynamo DD19

I'm sticking with the 'What's the rush' approach...peppered with a little pinch of 'Be prepared'. :]

Black Rainbow Project, what bag is that hanging off the top tube?

The bags are all made by me.

I'd pay for a top tube bag like that. Thats perfect.

Awesome, they look really good.

Thankfully my plan of covering the whole bike with bags to draw attention away from the white rims seems to have worked! :]

Was feeling happy with what I decided to take, looking at Black Rainbow Project's set up I now feel woefully under prepared.

Oh and I have to say I am amazed at your bag making prowess!

+1

Fuckin' hell Scott; those white rims look awful....

Those rims caught my eye first :-).

I'm impressed with your prep.

Weather has been upgraded from 20km/h tailwind to 30km/h. Anyone have a parachute I can attach to my bike?

Well at least we won't be getting soaked for too long then

Alright, I'll probably get a flaming for this, but, what is wrong with the white rims?

Oh lordy lord. This is tomorrow isn't it. Woefully ill prepared and getting plenty "dog ate my homework" ideas already.

But semi-determined to do it.

Need to arrange a meet up time at the start and riding buddies please or I'll definitely bail. Anyone that I know riding I wonder (can't be fagged looking back over the thread)(don't recognise many names on the current page).

Is it worth starting an "actually riding tomorrow" list to give folk an idea of people they might wanna meet up with/ride with?

Hell, maybe there is an "actually riding tomorrow" list, who knows? Not I.

BRP, I guess if anyone should set the bar, it shuold be you.

Fuckin' hell Scott; those white rims look awful....

They looked even worse before i took all the stickers off. :]

Cafewanda - are you riding? Can't remember.

I don't set bars...I just bolt the entire contents of the Batcave to them! :]

Well...not Alfred obviously!

got a giant penny?

No, but spending one is the last box to tick on the checklist before leaving.

Hey Katie, do we need print outs of our coach receipts or anything like that and is there someone we can send out numbers to in case were running late or dead?

I believe you are already on the coach? if you are please PM me the following information.

name
email (to validate the order)
forum name (incase anyone seeing this decides to try and fool me)
contact number on the night
emergency contact number
emergency contact name

(or you could answer Velocios email asking for the same...)

Might be a lot of riders appearing on the beach at 4am if there's a real tailwind like that!

Meeee. With a bunch of other carbon'd up nodders. Won't be a fast one.. even at a 20 kph you'd arrive before 8am.

Im stressing more about how to get dry clothes to the end if it rains down on us...

I think im going to tape a black back to my toptube but worrying how to stop it interfereing with my cabling....

I promise not to try it on in the dark down some country lane on the way to Dunwich.

Bin liners are useful and cheap for keeping stuff dry.
