2011-05-07 - GSIAD V (The 7th of Mayhem)

If timing works out I'll try to get back from Cambridge and ride straight to the Hoebuck for a pint of Ubu and some forum love. Would one of you lovely South Easties drop me a text when you're on your way there?

All dependent on me setting off to Cambs early. Aiming to be there and back by 1pm...

Fallers stick together, safety in numbers.

You just want to fall on top of someone.

You riding in from Crouch End Yas? We're thinking of doing a Norths breakfast then feeder ride to the start if you want to join.

In!, where is breakfast?

The Hot Sausage in Regents Park at 10.00h?

im pork free :)

Bring a croissant

alright :(

BOLLOX.

With all this bank holiday nonsense it turns out I need to be at work till 2 o'clock. Anyone got any ideas how long will each stop be? This means Souths is out for me but will you still be in the Roebuck? Or would a splash and dash in each pub in order till I catch up be the right thing to do?

no idea :( will need to know too :)

Head to the Flask and line the drinks up for the rest of us would be my suggestion.

I recall Jonny buying a round for the Guinness ride, and on another occasion JCGarcia not only buying the whole ride a round but phoning ahead to have them set up on the bar for our arrival.

Magnificent gestures each but not sure I could afford to follow suit, my children need to eat (I don't have children (but if I did they would need to eat so my point stands)).

I should be along with the group provided my illness doesn't get worse. Can always txt me and I'll let you know where we are. Afaik, JC/Betty might join at Easts for a bit via the same method

If the weather's shite, I will probably skip the C&H. Bit too far out for me if it's raining.
I will try to intercept the procession at the Roebuck.

What time does it all start and what is the route of pubs?

Wish the OP would put it in the opening post like the norm.... Poor form. Must be a noob

As the folks from Norths usually turn up before the folks at South-Easts, shouldn't the route be:

Souths
Norths
South-Easts
Easts
Wests
Central

I mean, I hope the order wasn't chosen because it's the shortest. Real cyclists wouldn't do that, would they?

Surely it should be;

Souths
South-Easts
Easts
Norths
Wests
Central

Epic chronological order fail.

Days of the week order and SE on the way to Norfs, so:

Souths
South-Easts
Norths
Easts
Wests
Central

cease this dissent

nearly xander but the drinks are done in order of the day of the week they represent.

Souths - coach & horses at noon
South-Easts - roebuck around one
Norths - flask around 2
Easts - pub around 3$%
Wests - pub around *5^&
Central - lamb around *&£$%

arrival times stated

Just say where we are meeting and what time

just behave yourself.

won't you be flouncing anyway!?!?!?

I was being lazy and pushing the shortest route!
