Looks good to me!

(I'd just finished planning one myself, but given that mine didn't take in North Hill, I'm happy to defer to yours

)

Is anyone heading out tomorrow for the mid week ride from Witham if so what time are they leaving and where are they meeting please

Welcome! I have a sneaking suspicion I know who you are in real life. For future reference, do you have any food allergies?

The Hustler is clearly pot hunting. He has his eyes fixed firmly on the prize. Shame Tippers won't be around to witness it

Tho but, it's only June

You do know these things are only decided on the day of bestowal of the coveted 'pot' based on who has least ability to carry it home

The Hustler may want to hold off on that order of hats and stickers he has just made then.

In a departure from tradition, one of a few next week, we will be doing the mid-week thing on a Tuesday ... in Halifax ... what could possibly ...?

Tuesday is a funny night. I once had a night out in East Grinstead on a Tuesday night and that didn't end well.

Are you going to go by train instead of riding bikes?

Riding there and training it home, that's the usual MEMWNS way of doing things, right?

tedshred · « **Reply #9392 on:** 15 June, 2016, 03:17:48 pm »

As long as Tomsk goes both there and back by bike, it's fine.

Brilliant....I'm working on a planb for a new box....maybe some lights and dry ice for effect. But seeing Bobbs guitar picture I am realising that my wood working skilz are quite lacking....
ANyway....make sure you leave an extra bit of space for it this year.

jiberjaber · « **Reply #9395 on:** 20 June, 2016, 08:38:11 pm »

So with ring leaders astray up in the wild north who is thinking about a ride out Wednesday?

I'm up in teh Smoke on Thursday which will involve the car so suspect I might just head out for a pootle to put on some miles and see if I need a refreshment stop or not....

tedshred · « **Reply #9396 on:** 20 June, 2016, 10:27:15 pm »

Somewhere between here and Chelmsford. No Tomsk so we can stay east of the A12. Longest Wednesday night so some effort required. Maldon Hythe ?

Sounds like a plan... does that work for our Witham based peloton left-behinds.... ?

tippers_kiwi · « **Reply #9398 on:** 21 June, 2016, 11:16:00 am »

Maldon Hythe sounds good. A visit to one the Tap Room or Farmers yard would be nice as well (they close early so could go for one then move to the Hythe)

Not sure exactly what my situation will be so I am by no means 100% definite so I'll go with the flow.
