2012-07-21 London to Bath Night Ride (a TNRC affair)

Two years ago on this ride a guy called Jamie B tipped up , a friend of nhats. A good rider and really nice guy ( apart from when he suddenly stopped to pick up somebody's cap on a 40mph downhill stretch causing me to brown my Lycra). Haven't seen the guy for a year at least until today when I was down on the south bank. Turns out he has a food hut down outside the royal festival hall called PittCue Co and therefore the owner of Pitt Cue Co in soho. Both have been getting rave revues and are well worth a visit if you love eating meat and drinking whiskey.

Hahaha. I remember this too. Funny now, but at the time I shat myself. None of that behaviour this year please!

When are/ Have people already started booking tickets back? Or is the point of the list to get 3xgroupsave?

In, depending on work :(

Shamelessly bumping the thread for those who enjoyed the Dun run. Join us on an equally lovely ride to Royal Bath Spa!

Dunwich was fun. More please!

yes wools!

Boo!

Are you capping at 12 or can we go for 16?

When are/ Have people already started booking tickets back? Or is the point of the list to get 3xgroupsave?

I'm up or either, though atm care little about saving the monies and more about being able to enjoy the pub :) I would suggest anyone booking gets an open ticket rather than miss any fun on the day (unless of course there's a wife/sprog to please... at which point we have the TNRC 'bad dad' awards up for grabs).

Chatted with you about this Des (are you the Des at no. 11?) while sitting with Skully in the pub yesterday morning.

I'm up for this definitely.
I'm also up for the TNRCs in general, can't make tomorrow due to work nonsense but in a fortnight...

Steve, will call this sat. On hols currently.

Andrew, good to have you on! Dare I ask: will you be on the Mercian?

Boo!

Afraid not - they've still got it, and only just got in touch about it a week or so ago. Shame, but at least will be done for light touring duties in September.

i'm getting excited about this know.

shall we do a bet on the weather?

Steve, I'll about about bets that hedge my emotional commitment, thus I have £20 on Cadel and one lunch to you if it rains, care to take me up on it?

Boo!

right, I've booked an area for us at the Assembly Inn http://www.theassemblyinn.com/

We shall lunch on roast boeuf and drink to our heart's content while Wiggins stands atop the champs elysee.

I'm not going to book myself a train but shall instead be seeking temporary friends for group save.

Looking forward to this!
