[Closed] Monday Night Pub Ride No1 2015

I'm in a bit of a mess after an unscheduled dismount whilst BMXing the other night so can't guarantee attending.

I'll have to see how it goes.

[s]I'm not going to say that I told you so but[/s]

I told you that shenanigans would end in tears.

There were no tears! However one of the many chunky zips on a pair of Endura Humvees did manage to penetrate quite a long way into my leg.

🙂
Sorry I just wanted to use the word shenanigans.

There. I used it again.

I should be up for it. Although I'm coming down with a cold* so will also have to see how it goes.

*potential first crap excuse of the year.

I reckon I can probably make it out to Prestwich again, smashing.

HtS, have you got hold of the footage of your impromptu acrobatics yet?

Will hopefully be able to make it, especially if it's Prestwich.

Need to get my rear brake fixed though. As with most things I try to fix myself, I've gone and made it worse.

i reckon so, yeah.

Yes I think a trip to Prestwich will be good. First day back at work for many will undoubtedly lead to a mass 'cant be arsed' set of excuses come 6pm on the forum!

It would probably be an idea to stick to the Songs of Praise route which stuck to fast* and relatively dry sections of trail...

*everything is relative!

I can't do this week folks (so that should speed things up a bit) as the social whirl of my new year continues (mates 40th birthday drinkees). I'll probably still do the weekly illustrations for the thread though (rude not too), but I've sworn I'm not touching a Mac until Monday.

...it just may happen...

Well volunteered for leading if HtS doesn't pull through 😀

The alternative isn't worth considering, frankly...

Evening all. Could I tag along on Monday, what time do you meet?

Trust it's a relaxed pace...

Cheers
Ruddy

Course you ruddy can! All are welcome.

relaxed may be bigging it up a bit though. Almost stationary is likely to be more accurate after the Christmas break 😀 .

8.15 outside The Church Inn 40 Church Ln, Prestwich, Manchester M25 1AJ.

Bring Lights

And beer money.

Still time for a ninja edit Bregante, 'course you ruddy can!'
And that's a mega Christmas tree decoration gofasterstrips.

Not sure about Monday yet, will see you if I see you.

No idea what you mean tthew 🙂

I'm in. Other than bmx it will be my first ride in 14 weeks.

Nice one, see you Monday.

I hope to be there as it will be my last ride for a few weeks

Yey! First day back at work so it's a must.

I'm tempted. I'm just slow and secondly up at half 5 for work.

Do they still do those pies?

Last Monday the pie fridge was bare. Having said that, there was hardly any beer on either!

Delivery was expected though!

You lot might as well change the name to "Monday Night Pie Ride".

BINNNNNERSSSSSSSSSS!

Heres one I made earlier....

which I think fits the bill 😀

you can keep your pies...

i'm off up to phillips park later today to do laps of the figure 8 loop until i can't see.

What time you headed up there Andrew?

until i can't see.

Self abuse will do that, yes 😀

I should be there, scabs permitting.

Well xherbivorex and I have just spent a rather muddy few hours at Phillips this afternoon so if any of you were thinking of a ride on the "other" side of the river it [u]will[/u] be extremely claggy.

Hopefully HtS will have recovered sufficiently to guide us...

I'm in, I will do batteries on Sunday to make sure that something works for long enough... I have a new front tyre to blame for my lack of skilllz

I'm sorry I can't make this one. See you next time you're a little closer.

Have [s]pies[/s] fun!

Is there a chance I might be able to pick up my t-shirt?

No worries if not. Cheers

I'm not there tomorrow, but I could send it down with one of the Rammy contingent for you. It's a medium isn't it mate?

Yea it is, cheers!

I'll take it down Binners if I remember to call at yours.

So who is playing out tonight then?!

Me.

Me

Me, couldn't fit mudguards though... please be freezing.

me

I should be there. Will try and think up a route that will keep us out of the mud. Probably some variation on the Songs of Praise extravaganza from last month.

I’ll also be bringing my new pressure washer (woo), so form an orderly queue if you want a squirt.

I'm in

Me.
