7pm at the SOUTHAMPTON BIKE PARK.

I haven't ridden for ages so it will be the extra slow one this week. I might even be reduced to gears and suspension.

For extra entertainment after the ride you can see the results of the first fire of the car rebuild!

Starting the engine didn't go well then!

When you say first fire are you forgetting the one you had cutting the old body off?

Should be there at 7.

Okay, second fire of the rebuild, well third if you count the two fires on the same day during the body removal.

This one was a self igniter created purely through the use of electricity. No petrol was harmed in the creation of this fire.

Unfortunately can't make this week, as I am on childcare duty. Have a good ride.

On the plus side, I'm off to Coed Y Brenin and Llandegla tomorrow. ๐Ÿ˜›

Can you save the aftermath of the fire for next week or arrange another one for next week! ๐Ÿ˜†

My head is still too defective to walk in a straight line let alone ride or drive so I won't be there. Have fun!

Thinking of trying to make it along to this for my first time.

The bike park is at the sports centre, right?

Where exactly is the meet point? Just at the car park?

Biscuit - go into the sports centre, you'll see the bike park on the sloping grass hill towards coxford road. You can't miss it really. See you there.

Count me in.

Biscuit Powered - the bike park is at the top of the hill on the opposite side of the valley to the dry ski slope/hockey pitches - follow the cyclocross signs if you're coming from the main car park.

Edit: ooops - got beaten to it for the directions.
