Thames Path Meander, Mk IV
« on: 25 September, 2011, 07:48:36 pm »
A number of people could make this month's running of my Thames Path Meander so I'm offering to run it again in October.  Please vote for your preferred day.

This time around we'll start at 10:00.  We should finish before sunset, but you'll probably need lights to get you home.
;D  Andrij.  I pronounce you Complete and Utter GIT   :thumbsup:

Can't do 9th.  Any of the others. Assuming the Rowing Club gives me (yet another) pass-out.

Actually, F*** 'em.  It's not as if I'm Junior Co-ordinator or anything.  So, more time spent on Bl**dy Trains(TM), but it turns out I quite like them.

I've voted for the 9th also, but 16th should be OK as well.

We can't do the 9th. I've voted 23rd, but the 16th would probably be ok too. :)

23rd has my preference, I've got rides planned for the other weekends although in each case on other days. I have voted as such :)

If anyone can do multiple Sundays, I'd be grateful if you could choose one of them as a preferred day.

At the moment, I could run this ride every Sunday in October and have a good handful of riders each time.

I've voted for the 16th though I could probably do any of the other dates.

I was sorry to miss the last one.   :'(

There appears to be no clear choice, so I'm making a radical decision.

2nd October is coming off the list - apologies to those who can only make that day.  But... I will run the ride on each of the other three Sundays.

If you've been on one of these rides before I don't mind if you come again.  OTOH, I'd be grateful if people come for only one of the October days to help keep the numbers on each ride manageable.
Each ride will depart at 10:00 from the Southwark Needle and include pub lunch, ferry crossing and tea stop.

Please PM me with your preferred date and mobile number so I can put together my lists.  Also, I'd be grateful for a volunteer TEC for each ride.

What a trooper  :thumbsup: - I'd love to join the 23rd edition.

I can solve a fairy visit, I own a multi tool and I'm good at being slow. Do you need anything more fancy for a TEC on this ride?

Just a reminder for those who are interested in this ride to please drop me a line to confirm when you'll be coming along.  Thanks.

Four people voted for this Sunday but so far only one person has got in touch.  :-\

Yes, 10:00 departure from the Needle.

Am I correct in assuming this is a booking for just two?

I was looking to do this on Sunday but the bloody trains from Southend are out of action - on both lines! Dez was going to come. We could do it on Bromptons and take them on buses but it would still take 2 hours each way to get to London and our Bromptons are not properly equipped with lights.

I was planning to come on 16 Oct (travelling on the train from Essex).  Just checked the service alterations for that day and they are buggered for that weekend as well.  So this means that I will end up as a no show.  Really gutted.
Thanks for going to all the effort to run the ride on multiple weekend - maybe next year I can join something similar.
