Hey Digger saw a tattoo you might like http://www.flickr.com/photos/sewincicle/3864482540/

Zebs

Not sure when the next meeting is planned but just wanted to remind you guys that the Bicycle Film Society is having a show on the 9th January http://www.lfgss.com/thread77732.html

Are we on tomorrow?

I do'nt know but I am running a film show http://www.lfgss.com/thread77732.html

Looks completely ace.
Sadly I've been summoned to the land of the flems so 5.30 start tomorrow buggers that one up.
Will make it one day...

So are we going to continue and try and make this happen?

You beat me to it, tonight, but yes. Don't let this be a fad.

we should get some dates in the diary.. monday nights work best for me and keep it fortnightly and sociable too..

mon 30th jan
mon 13th feb
mon 27th feb
mon 12th mar
mon 26th mar

mon 16th apr
mon 30th apr
mon 14th may
mon 28th may could be a bank holiday

can we have some venues please, it needs to be central C&H is too far south for me,
also quiet and cosy with good bike lock facility.. alas LMNH doesn't really work too noisy..

Any chance we can move the fortnightly by a week? Al you seem to have made them the 2nd and 4th Monday of the month the Bicycle Filme Society is always on the 2nd Monday we have already booked the dates

That'd be good for me. Anyone for Obree tonight @ LMNH?

Is he talking or is it a film?

Sorry Zebs, just seen. He was talking and was ace.

Graham Obree is always good to see talking though he usually starts the same way the rest of his talk is always different.

Have we agreed on a place for meeting? Can I suggest we stick to one location? In my experience this works a lot better than moving around

On dates the dates booked for the film society ar
Adam so those dates you posted^ are your film nights?

So the roll call for venues so far is:

**Leon Ludgate Circus
LMNH
C&H clapham
**
Any More?

My vote is for Leon Ludgate, due to centralty and space. Happy to try another central venue. Would Conway Hall at Red Lion Sq give us a spot? It'd be nice to get away from beer (keeps the meetings short!)

Al's suggestions^ I'm happy with these.

I'm going to order a jersey. Charles wants people to try before they buy them, so contact him if you want one. I'm need sort these memberships I'm doing for others. JaRyder and Object (don't think there's anyone else ...?) have already given me £2 memberships - you guys need to give pm me your addresses to recieve newsletters please.

Thanks Skully, you've got a reply.

i need to order a jersey.. and we need that london clarion logo artwork
so i can order sew on badges for us all to add across the shoulders..

we'll be like hell's angels on pedals

yes to leon at ludgate circus.. it has a che guevara feel to the place.

Skully,

Yes those are the film nights for the coming year

On venue my vote is for C&H Clapham though it is miles and miles out of my way. I known LMNH is Diggers favourite but it is a really crap place to hold a meeting or show a film for that matter. Leon is fine for location only.

Adam

Adam - I agree with all your points about venue, would really prefer C&H, but presumed Ludgate better for general attenance. Happy to go with C&H, natch.

Let's see if anyone comes up with another suggestion.

I'm happy with the dates Skully posted ^^^^^^

C&H Clapham is do-able for me, just about, though I'd prefer somewhere more central.

The C&H, despite having a separate room, and LMNH are always going to be distracting.
I don't know Leon so can't comment.

There's a cafe in Golden Square which does really good coffee and although they don't have a separate room it's never been very busy when I've been there of an evening. There are also railings outside that can be locked to. http://www.nordicbakery.com/
Could be worth a look?

Skully, cheers. PM'd you.

C&H is perfect for me a I'm just round the corner. If we didn't leave the separate room we'd be OK?Happy with anywhere central too.
Anything as long as it's not North.....

Obree was just great. A real gent as well as a legend.
His BBC Hard Talk interview is a must watch too.
His stance on Drugs in cycling and David Millar in the Olympics absolutely spot on I reckon.
Interesting about his boozing too.
