2014-05-24 - LFGSS Practicality Trial- Bournemouth and BigxTop

I'm stuffing my panniers with newspaper to make it look like i'm going fucking CAMPING

Booo, last day of werk.

Maybe I could just call in sick ¬_¬

You should!

Also- I should make it clear that the ride is weather dependent.

I'm going to be out sorry, i'll be riding to holland that weekend.

What's the plan in terms of trains for the return?

I no can haz road bike for another couple of weeks so I'm out too I'm afraid.

Very poor excuse Jibbeh, I may be able to lend you one though.

Jb plz, do it on your ECR

I'm going to be honest, and say at the moment, I'm not 100% I have the distance in me...
Might be postponed till the next bank holiday.

Thoughts on postponement anyone?
Since we've had massive dropouts, and I don't trust my legs to get me through it, though I probably would...
#classiceyebrowsfailthread

might do it solo anyway

^ if ya want some company
I don't mind tagging along

I'm not 100% out, I edited/ made a different route:

However, the current forecast for 7.5-10mm/hr of rain from 0700-at least midday on Saturday could make it truly miserable, and only due to clear at 1600....

seems less hilly?

It is, mostly due to surrey avoidance.
I just put it up as a different option. The 1st is probably more scenic, but needs some significant editing, I think

Parents have sprung family event on me.
Definite no go for saturday.

In for the re-schedule!

punches air

Any chance I could tempt any of you guys down the following friday?
We've got free Jimmy's Iced Coffee...

I just want to ask are you going to that ride tomorrow or not
Thanks Broda

I'm not.
It will be re-organised for another date later in Summer.
Apollo and Omash may be riding.

It's a shame but I will go anyway I'm new on this forum and know nobody so probably i i will go alone

I can't make it the following Friday Dan, but that looks like a nice event.

Ideas for re-run date?

thanks eyebrows
We've got our June event coming up on Saturday June 28th
It's going to be a series style race event between a number of pubs in the purbecks

We've got some very big sponsors which will be announced a little later on, it's £4 entrance for the race for LFGSS members (and that includes free Jimmy's Iced Coffee)
We are trying to create monthly events down here, a mixture of alley cats, longer races, downhill time trials, track days and a few other things
check out our Facebook if you want to keep up to date on our stuff, it'd be really nice to have some of you guys down. The guys at cycle ps are bringing down a team next Friday, the only London representatives so far!
