If my frame breaks again Binners, you're getting the blame.

I’m in.

Weather is looking promising too and we’ll have light until gone 9pm! I’ve even bleached out all of the black hairy things from my Camelbak™ bladder in anticipation of some summer riding.

brennak that would be great cheers. Probably makes sense if you pick me up at the Masons, but if you want me to go anywhere else just let me know. Just let me know what time. My email is in my profile if you need it.

I'll pick you up at the Masons no problem it about an hours drive (for me anyway) so about 19-45 be OK give us time to load up.

Really enjoyed it tonight - great to have so much daylight as well!

... and then, after harvesting the powers of 'perspective', Daz and Steve hatched a cunning plan to uproot and steal the TV Transmitter Mast...

Cheers Andy. Sam kindly posted my glasses to me after I left them outside the wine press the other week. I haven't seen him since but I need to return the box and case he sent them in. I'll drop you a text at the weekend and pop it round if that's OK.

Yep. Tod. Mason’s Arms.

Daz is our leader, but we’ll need somebody else with local knowledge to step in when he has the inevitable mechanical and/or terminal wipe out.

Like tubes and seat post bolts it is best to carry a spare.

Cool beans, I like to know where my box is 😉

See you there, unless my supervisor actually kills me tomorrow. He just doesn't seem to understand how important using these two new Geforce 970s actually is to me.

Everything went wrong when I stopped riding the singlespeed. 🙂

I'll be going out tomorrow to find a route that's not as hilly as last time. Wish me luck.

And, given how many people there might be, at least partially legal please, Daz... 😛

Yeah don't worry, almost all legal with a small tribute to todcross. Less said about that the better though so I don't put anyone off. 🙂
