Careful now... it's Mothers Day ;)

Lee Valley loop and who knows the dry line on the muddy downhill on the way back may still be there :shock:

10:00am at Bury Rd car park. http://goo.gl/maps/BFzFT

The car park linked looks a bit different now as it's in two halves now... rough part and a tarmac part. Either part is fine as you can see one from the other.

I'll be in a blue VW Transporter

All welcome :)


If we get separated meet up at the cafe, here's a google map link https://goo.gl/maps/rraQp . If you get separated from the group wait here and eat bacon until everyone turns up :wave: That's assuming that you get lost before the bacon.... after the bacon you're on your own ;)

Recipe for divorce!

Bugeye, a bit of early notice but I should be getting all the pieces together by Easter (away for 2 weeks in April) so clear your garage. Is there anything I should do professionally at my LBS or are you fully equipped?

Hhhmmm not really thought of it like that, my mum lives abroad so I'm not really expected to pop round .

I hear that divorce can be expensive though and this could eat into my N+1 budget. Maybe this Sunday is better spent earning some brownie points?

I'm out.... yes I know I posted the ride ;)


Re bike building...

The only thing you might want to get the LBS to do is pressing in the headset.

It's easy enough to do with a hammer and block but the result of cocking it up is a ruined frame :wtf:

I'm happy to do it but it might be less stressful for you to go the LBS route :)

Next weekend is the first Trailtax / Swinley... weather dependent... wife not working dependent thing.

How does that work for a pre wedding wedding ride :thumbup: or :thumbdown:

I'm still up for the trialtax/swinley haven't cycled around there before. Is it still likely to happen?
Or is it all weather depended

Yep Trailtax in the morning... lunch and then Swinley :)


Matt... pretty weather dependent really wouldn't be a lot of fun in the rain.

It's entry on the day so we can decide nearer the time. Wednesday usually has a more or less accurate forecast for the Sunday ;)
