So, that time of year is here again.

End: Brighton, Madeira drive
Time: Approx 13:00

So come on turn up.

I'm working that day 9am to 10pm. On a cycling literature even, not event cricket. :mad:

If the mrs has her DAS out the way by then, you may well have two of us in attendance...failing that, we'll be on the big or medium VF.

Weather isn't looking like total crap, and I'm awake early enough to attend this. I'll be there.

Shame i had to peel off. Fuel pump has quit, so 5 mile hops and wait for gravity to do its work on the way home.
Shame, i was enjoying myself up til then!
Will be bodged for tomorrow, and fixed over the weekend.
Thanks for a fun day! So we managed to keep up the tradition of a Selkent rideout and had at least one breakdown and one person (briefly) taking a wrong turn. But it didn't rain or hail or snow - for which I'm grateful! And Matt didn't get plopped on by a seagull.
Thanks to those that made the effort and shame on you for the ones that didnt.
:)

I had the best of intentions, even got the bike ready the evening before, but then got snookered by the wife who had arranged for us to meet up with a family friend visiting from Spain. Bless, she doesn't make many demands so I tend to listen when she does..... Still managed to get out briefly in the morning, just not as far as you guys.
