Waifs and Strays - Four

marvelous

might wear the santa beard Im currently making for an off road ride tonight, hmmm,
strokes beard

saying that ^^ went in the shops yesterday is really is quite nauseating,
12 deep in M&S, its like theres a fucking famine coming- except there isnt.

jealous of this thread/ride

racing round the base of the Gherkin til the securitytard kicked us off last year was a highpoint, only thing was we were going the wrong way round for track racing ocd

Void, you sound like the kid who killed hi parents so that he could go on the orphans picnic.

mf, we will do it right this year!

it's a geographical issue that's the problem, I don't live down there anymore.
I have 'people' here, but will be well away from them on the actual day, probably hammering my cross bike on Clent Hills.
I'd just like to be whipping through zone 1 with you muppets, that's not bad is it?

/sad face

I'm getting excited about this.

We don't need a map.

Maybe we'll even visit these places in this order.

Oxford Circus
Parliament Square
The Mall
Harrods
Chelsea & Westminster
Hyde Park
Baker Street
Regent Park (Inner Circle)
Camden Town - Café break for those who want it.
Russel Square
Holborn
Aldwich
The City
Tower Bridge
City Hall
Some other bridges
Erm.
Some other places.
Then that place near that other place that we like.

You get the idea.
Plan for a relaxed paced ride or 20-25 miles.
Bring food, spares, adequate clothing and anything else you think you might need.

See you all for a 9am departure.
I'll be at Oxford Circus from 8.30ish.

I am asking MrsO to make some mince pies. Fingers crossed.

I know it's a bit "splinter group" but I hope to catch up with you after watching grizzled old people throw themselves in the Serpentine.

Near naked old people being dunked in freezing cold water.

How long have you harboured this particular fetish?

Since TNRC ended.

Right, £10 for anyone* that can beat the tandem in a 1 mile drag race...

*must be registered disabled

Damo. you've got my number, Call and I'll give you updates of where we are and where we're heading so you can catch up.

I know it's a bit "splinter group" but I hope to catch up with you after watching grizzled old people throw themselves in the Serpentine.

What time do they go in? I've always fancied trying this, but obviously am not going to. Might be fun to watch though...

They go in at 9. However, to qualify as a swimmer for the December 25th race, you have to have raced three times in the winter league.

Tell her I've said, "Please! Oh, please! I've never had homemade mince pie!"

jayloo, and you a baker of considerable excellence. I'll ask her for her recipe for you.

Excellent food!
