FOT/FOF, Sunday 24/05

Loser.

 

Well my plans are wide open, after sacking off the SV boys to do a FOF,
and now el darso has bailed.

Define "later run" - I have all day tomorrow clear, V's off to the
seaside with her sister.

Bear, you still out to play, esp. if it's a later start?

 

Monday's do-able if I know the start & endpoints. The latter simply
because I have no idea about typical speeds: I suspect I'm the average
side of average.

 

Eh? "FOT please though (or non-FOT at least)"?

My secret decoder ring appears to be broken.

 

Forecast looks a bit shit for Monday. I'll get a ride in while the
weather's a known good quantity and think about a repeat performance if
it cheers up for Monday.

 

Horse and jockey at 10 am then ?

 

Unlikely. If I'm out of bed by 10 I'll be amazed. A bit later, not sure
where yet.

 

A bit early for me too

but I was going to make the effort to get my lardy arse out tomorrow

So potentially up for whatever, wherever

 

In message

Me too

email is valid

 

I think we'll just get the bikes out and go for a blast on Monday
rather than trying to stick to something along a planned route and
meeting at an organised time. It'll probably involve riding around
Beds, Cambs and Northants at illegal speeds and stopping for food and
drink at some point.

If anyone wants to email me a phone number I can either send them a
text or phone them when we decide what we're doing but that'll only be
when we get out of bed on Monday.

 

you don't know what my alternative plan is.

 

Since it probably doesn't involve banging Monica Bellucci, I'll stick
with my initial assessment.

 

Happy Birthday!

Sucks to be Bonwick.

 

A good time was had by all.

 

No it doesn't. I've had a great day wandering along the Thames
drinking in numerous public houses, watching football then drinking
more beer before getting home about 15 minutes ago.

 

You do realise I don't really worry about the weather if I want to
ride my bike? I was out on the Yam last weekend and did 200 miles of
which about 100 was in pouring rain and I actually enjoyed every
minute of it.

 

I work every other weekend throughout the summer so if I've got an
excuse to do a 200 mile round trip on a bike I'll take it. I'd feel
differently if my waterproofs didn't work or if I had to ride a bike
for a living but because it's for fun I make the most of it.

I'll be out on the bike tomorrow but I couldn't do the walk along the
Thames drinking beer and then watch a decent game of football
tomorrow.

 

Which way did you go? I've done numerous crawls between Kew Bridge and
Hammersmith but not spent much time on the river east of that.

 

It's just a machine, after all.

I trust L enjoyed herself, even if she did spend have to the entire day
perched on the back of an R1. Seems a nice girl.

 

Off the tube at Hammersmith and started at The Old Ship then walked
towards the football ground.
