Woohoo :thumbsup:

'New route', eh? Any ideas what the changes will be?

None whatsoever. I'll post these as and when they become apparent.

I wonder how many of the Guardian converts will re-appear for this edition ?

They might even multiply !

Not sure if I can make this one or not. I may be off on my annual attempt at the South Downs Way. If not, mini-hatler and I will see you in Downtown Ditchling, thermos in hand.

I may be in on this :)  Just need to confirm a couple of things first.  Also dependent on getting an escort from Liverpool Street.

It would be my first FNRttC on the Sunday

Escorts are available from Liverpool Street, but you're more likely to find one in the Kings Cross area  :D

On a stag do (yet another Monopoly pub crawl of London) I offered £5 to whoever could get the highest number of different er...business cards from the phone boxes around Kings Cross in 5 minutes.

The winner managed 115, once we'd removed a few duplicates.

I'm in for this one - and unlike last month, I won't be on my commuter which with the panniers full of stuff became a 22kg steel behemoth, but back on my normal light weight machine.  ;D

I appear to have signed up for this one.  :-[

If no-one feels like keeping a slow old bugger on a Koga shopper company, I'll understand.

I should make it eventually (providing the 'new route' is via Milton Keynes or anywhere else daft).
There's no vibrations, but wait.

update on attendees from Simon



Swarm_catcher (six minutes!???) is first on the list. I'm intrigued by the name. Is it some fantastically erudite anglo-dutch pun, or are you a beekeeper?

It was!  Just a little damp. 

Anyhow, I was the one that suffered, I did 10 miles more than everyone else after getting lost.
