2014-08-24 Bank Holiday HHSB Slide to Cambridge

You got a Garmin with nav?

Yeah when I can use/it works.

Remember last year?

Did you navigate? The route was great last year, aside from the traffic islands...

I was supposed to but my garmin wouldn't lock on/I was an idot so @hatbeard did instead.

Willing to try again this time, I'll check if I still have that route.

Sweet.

Will you be riding the Pendle?

And do you have a spare 110mm pro chrome?

It depends on what parts I can buy this week, was planning to ride the orlowski and 4 spoke because pendle+4 spokes narrow rim means no real 23c tyre fits.

I might flounce due to the fact I've not ridden my sweet fixie bike for atleast 4 weeks in favour of my BMX. Said BMX riding has also resulted in a bruised heel and twisted ankle.

@IR I have the route still

tempted to come along but my steamroller needs a bit of a service before my next long ride and a lot of RDC stuff going on next weekend as well.

I'm in a similar position dry, barely ridden fixed this year due to other injuries and rolled my ankle carrying the fixed up from the cellar the other day, it'll be fine, nice flat route and forecast is looking decent, low winds...

Hatbard it wouldn't be a slide without you, get a bit of gt85 on that chain and it'll be fine.

Ridden fixed yesterday (London to Margate) for the first time in about a month and the legs are definitely hurting today! But definitely looking forward to riding this (though I will be extremely slow due to track day the day before) need to MTFU

OK, I'm in. I'll see who else I can drag along.

I just need to put together a rad to the max sled.

I will try and come along on this, need to the Makino back in working order.

If anyone can't make it, or fancies warming their legs up on the day before, come along to the track day down at Herne Hill. Even if you don't want to race, it will be a good day to sit in the sun.

I should be down Saturday to observe, not race fit ATM ha...

@HatBeard ah come on, my weekend has to be worse. We need you on this ride.

@TM bringing donobro?

.

I reckon so iR just can't decide on bar setup...

In with minimal slave points but bringing the noise.

Wicked.

I just spent my Nectar Points on a Bluetooth speaker. I too shall be bringing the noise.

I don't think anyone can beat crops set up so I won't bother trying this time, CBA for a backpack.

Srs

I'm going to try and make this, my vaguely HHSB is on bricks while the Cycle PS lads build some rad new wheels for me. I've got a new pub brklz Bianchi (hipista) that should be built by Friday! I'll try slide that down. No silly wheels for me tho :(

I'm in like Flynn.

Which LMNH though ? London Fields or Old Street ?

I can also bring some moderately considerate noise.

Old street! So get there for 9:30 ish to leave for 10, try and make cambs with time for a chill/beverage before the train back.

How long you thinking its gonna take?
