chips. i'm gonna eat so many.

chips. i'm gonna eat so many.

Totally awsome!

loads of chips you say.. we'll need more mayo then

I've had this thread on ignore for a while due to EPIC JEALZ! but just wanted to pop back in to tell you all to have an AWESOME TIME!

I'll try and find a cobbled hill to do loops of on saturday - I think there was a slightly inclined bit of pave off Clerkenwell Road on the London Classic and then I will head to a Belgo and eat frites and mayo and cherry beer till I fall over. Or something.

ENJOY KIDS! RIDE SAFE!

someone start a thread in the tours and touring area documenting the journey (pref as you go!) needs some love there :)

Got my leave for today, tomorrow and monday approved AN AGE AGO by my line manager and then a while back she was all "oh, that leave you've got? You can't have the friday anymore because we need you in"

It's the deadline for a year end financial report due to be in from NHS Trusts - yes, we've been busy this week but most of the queries have been in the week NOT on deadline day. Apparently it's business critical that someone is here to reply to emails and say "cheers for submitting" and then file the return somewhere.

Sure will mister. Sorry, completely forgot to discuss this with you last Friday, and by the time we got to The Toucan, had lost the power of speech and thought.

It must have been my nut allergy kicking in...

it's all good, just interested in your experience, how you planned it and things that go well/not so well.

Have an awesome time dude!

Have a most excellent adventure people.
Good luck with the drinking, and enjoy the cycling.. Or is it the other way around?

I think it's both ways. Let's grab a beer when I'm back Sweats...

Humm, you said you would.

Van all packed, and ready to leave, and pick up my two compatriots at Elephant and Castle.

Drive/ride safe people! Can't wait to see the pictures and reports!

Try realise that this was today, ride safe guys!

Omg so tired. Whenever I get up at this time it's like that bit in Father Ted where Dougal doesn't realise there are times in the morning

Thank you

Sorry
