There's a new special event page in keeping with the new forum functionality.

Seems like a good chance of me making it.

You should have made a backup "hot beverage ride" for if the weather is dire

Indeed - start time /
Location is here :

Pls. download and print your brevet card before arrival :)

@Howard - nice brevet card.

Deja vu - I knew I commented on it last night, this 2-thread business is really getting confusing. mod please close this thread!

This waz a year ago. :)

more places have opened, gelato is everywhere, time for another?

Is this why everyone was buying the Rapha Randonee shorts???

Would love to, but I think someone else needs to take up the batton

will have a think, I'm off on holiday on the weekend, and if there's still a bit of an indian summer going on when I return I'll look into it..

but may need to update the list/route to include some newer places..

We have spoken about this off the thread a couple of times. As Howard said he is tied up. Cake and I have spoken about it too. However I am away the next couple of weekends. Depending on how September looks we could still do it again this year.

Lets at least collate the new places here so we can factor them in.

Oddono's have a new shop on Chiswick High Street.
Gelupo have a new shop at the junction of Charring Cross Road and Shaftsbury Avenue. (Been there a few times already.)

What else?

This post below reminded me, I think it's time...

Ruby Violet opens 12pm on Saturday 21 May 2016 at 3 Wharf Road, London N1C 4BZ. They'll also have a bicycle and trolley fitted with freezers for making local deliveries

I've also got two surprises for my friend's hen do in the freezer.

Palmer violets icecream
Vimto sorbet

Both are pretty good to be honest!

Palmer violets icecream

Soap & showergel thread>>>>>>>>

Vimto sounds good though!

I'm well up for another ice cream ride, I've just about digested everything from the last one. :D

Soap & showergel thread>>>>>>>>

Yeah there's a fine fine line!
I recently did a lavender one where I stole some from a neighbours garden and infused the milk. It actually turned out very nicely. I think the creaminess of the custard helps in dulling the soap-like association.

We need to do this ride again! Some time in August perhaps - happy to organise. How about August 13th or 20th.

Either works for me!

This ride was fun will be working but ride over somewhere after.

The ladies are doing an ice cream ride on the 13th. How many guys can do the 13th? Might ask nicely to make it a wider thing, or we might do our own mini ride. Depends on interest.

Everyone welcome but no dickheads.

is the line....so yeah, no dickheads I guess

Thanks @mands - something tells me its going to be a low turnout on the 'man' front. I assume Nick is baby sitting, perhaps @Howard might be able to join me?
