Love the sound of this event, will have to dig out my single speed kit!
where's 'Swanage'
"that spray paint, the fluro stuff"??
You need someone like Srewfix or other hardwear direct to punter shoppee, poss BnQ. Don't forget once it's down it's down and may need scrubbing off the surfaces its been put on, not too sure a pink fluro stripe across the back of a Nudie would go down too well..
You could use whipped cream, that would disintergrate in seconds with hairy beardies riding on it..
What about "police cordon off" tape...
Not doing two laps, fek that.. Thats propers hard.
25miles! but there are hills near Swanage!
That's great Charlie - can you let us know as soon as you have a date?
Own a singlespeed.....check
Relatively local to Swanage...check

In, just wondering whether this should provide an excuse for a more racey singlespeed, or would that not be in the spirit of the event?
Expecting a lot of northerners?Expect everything to be nailed down
Have a beard........ Check
Like cheese.......... Check
Have a drink problem....... Check
Route sorted.... It's a 25 mile lap.
Thought I saw you on the Isle of Wight, should be an interesting route with a water feature like that... 😯
Charlie, can you make sure the Square is well stocked in their homebrew cider please. And confirm back to me before I submit my entry 😀
25 mile laps? How many beer stops per lap?

Yes.
Can't belive I have only just seen this. I was at the square 2 weeks ago on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Popped by your place on the Sat Charlie but you must have been sleeping/drinking or something as the shop was closed. Well up for this after missing 2012 and 2011 being rather damp
is there.......CIDER!!!!!!!??
Cider.....
... At the cider pub of the year 2008.
Yeah, there will be cider
Charlie ...I can bring along the marking spray paint ......just let me know when
Single speed bikes ? Freaks with beards trying to have a race between beer stops ? Organised by a bike monger ? Oh yes please 😯
I think it's an absolutely ridiculous idea.
I will therefore have to attend.

Will there be cheese? In fact, can I put in a request for a lake of cider fondue big enough to bathe in. Thanks.
Can we start at The Banks Arms so I can moor the Sunseeker for the weekend Charlie :O)

No pooing in the fondue.
