MA3K "It isn't road tax, its a car tax" is my favorite rejoinder to some self-righteous motorist.

Or...

You could toss 50p at him and say "here's your refund for today!"

scott not scot Just wondered what kinda lights you guys are using?....will a commuter light be cool...or is anyone taking a proper big flood beam light for the dark country roads?

I did the bridges ride with my commuter light. It was fine on the streets, but on the offroad unlighted sections it wasn't good enough. Although it did throw out enough light to see by, it didn't light up enough of the road ahead of me for me to be confident enough to go faster.

Somebody had a really bright light, but I forgot to search him out and ask him what he had.

How about we call this one the Flowers to Towers Ride

That bit of green at Kew bridge that we stopped at was right across the road from a pub - sounds like a good meeting place to start with.

punkpixel yup. opens on a mac in windows media player. but no idea how to download it. would quite like to keep it. Let me know if someone figures out how to download on Mac.

You could also try VLC (Google it) which plays everything else that QuickTime doesn't.

I've put mine up on flicker with the londonfgss tag.

Not the best of pictures, but if you there it will bring back memories.

I'm sorry I missed the sunrise too, 'cos I joined the southerners at Piccadilly circus.

Hope you all had a great time - now I'm off to adjust my saddle. Again.

Cheers.

Glucosamine is really good for tendons and joints as well.

MA3K North meets north at 2330 BLB
South meets south Kens house 2330

**Meet Midnight City-side pavement ON Tower-Bridge

SORTED**

I'll be at BLB from about 2245 if anyone fancies a pint.

Knucklehead [quote]nimhbus I guess you lot have already seen this....thoughts?

There is a review in this weeks cycling plus of the Plug btw.[/quote]

I'm coming from the South as well, but I'm happy to meet outside BLB, go drinking and then pootle south of the river, meet up with whoever might be late, (maybe have a quick half in another pub) and then start the ride proper going South to North.

OR

Silly Option : we can each take up positions on the North and South ends of Tower Bridge, depending on where we are arriving from, and yell at each other Scottish warrior style to decide the start point.

OR

Silly Option 2: we can each start on the side of the bridge that we arrive from, and then see which zig-zag route reaches Kew Bridge first (RACE!).

mareeoh bbc 5 day

looks like the weather will be ok, cool!! finally ...
...snip...
please someone bring a map that covers all the bridges, just in case

Weather forecast not as good as it used to be, but it still seems okay.

Oh, and my pocket A-Z goes up to Kew bridge.

I'll be trying out a new hydration pack that I'll be using for DD, so don't look at me like I'm a wierdo when I turn up - I know it's overkill for this sort of ride.

Hovis Brown front of brick lane bikes: 2300. sounds good. bagel in hand.

I think a tandoori naan would be more appropriate.

Brick Lane is okay by me. I'm coming in from Greenwich but Brick Lane is only a little further along from Tower Bridge.

Barring unforseen circumstances, etc, I'm in.

I see the route passes by the flat where I spent most of my life.

So although it isn't a bridge, I bagsy Old Marylebone Road (@ km 43).

I know nothing about the pubs in Tooley St, so I'll just turn up wherever you lot are going to be.

How fast do you guys go? (on your bikes, I mean)

I'd like to get some night training in for Dunwich, and this sounds good, but I'm new to fixie riding, I think I'm overgeared, and I'd rather not be left bonked in the badlands.

I'm hoping something faster than an sunday afternoon canalside amble, yet slow enough that we don't all form a line and share the work in the front. Does this sound about right?

I was in the LCC bit, right in front of the big screen; saw the race and the coverage.
