I'm still gobsmacked at Denise Noha's LEL ride report. What a superstar.

That and George Hanna's account of recovering from cancer were both so inspirational, I'm going to lend this issue out at work. Wonderful stuff.

Redhill and Reigate. It's like Morlocks and Eloi.

what does that make Crawley? and who plays Jeremy Irons' Uber Morlock?

I'm pretty sure Andy S- inc Mad Jack didn't mean anything by his post as no cyclist would if they knew what had happened & my post was made in the heat of the moment.

Edit: Can we leave it at that please.

Thanks!

OK, I Have removed my original quote, sorry if it caused any upset etc, I had not read further into the magazine and did not know about GW's off, Yes I too hope he make a full recovery.

By request, the posts on this thread that were about the £10 event fee have now be given a thread of their very own.

£10 registration fee per event for organisers

I enjoyed reading the article about being unemployed and touring scotland in 1931

Just wondering where mine's got to...

Jaded · « **Reply #556 on:** 06 May, 2011, 12:09:57 pm »

And I am just filing out my survey.

Lots of familiar names and faces.

Ah yes, the survey. Need to do something about that...

Jaded · « **Reply #558 on:** 06 May, 2011, 12:22:36 pm »

Can it be done on line?

Phew, was just about to ask them same.

Might be interesting to see if there's a difference in profiles between online and dead-trees respondents...

Start of Feb

Mine just arrived a minute ago

I'll do the questionnaire online, however I do like to get my entries back by snail mail. It's the only post you get that you actually want, the rest being junk mail & bills.

Greenbank · « **Reply #566 on:** 06 May, 2011, 03:00:45 pm »

What survey? Did I miss something in the Feb Arrivee?

dasmoth · « **Reply #567 on:** 06 May, 2011, 03:01:56 pm »

Middle pages of the Spring edition, which arrived this morning for me (and quite a few others, by the sound of it).

Greenbank · « **Reply #568 on:** 06 May, 2011, 03:02:36 pm »

Aha. I look forward to reading it once the postman has finished with it.

GrahamG · « **Reply #569 on:** 06 May, 2011, 03:52:56 pm »

Arse, mine will be caught up in mail redirection seeing as I only updated my address on the AUK site yesterday. Cycling weekly feeds the magazine geekery but arrive is something to be savoured in small doses over a good few weeks.

Greenbank · « **Reply #570 on:** 06 May, 2011, 03:59:18 pm »

Did any organisers get anything about my offer to help with GPX files? (Offer: GPX tracks of routesheets)

I think it was being added to the organisers' flyer that is sent to organisers along with Arrivee, I don't think it was going in the main magazine.

P.S. This may change if the info is only just making it out to organisers now (other than the email to the Regional Events Secs) but uptake of my offer so far: 0

fantastic photo of Jamie and his write up

It seems I have two articles in this month: one under my own name and one under my pseudonym Jamie Andrews!

I think it's time for an email to the editor to avoid three editions in a row for my Mille Cymru mugshot with Jamie's name underneath.

Shame for Jamie more than me I guess; it's adorning his article.

(I did insist on seeing mine before it went to the printers in case it said Jamie at the top)

Dear Arrivee

After 5 seasons, the last 4 including SRs, PBP (alright, I didn't finish, but I was there), LEL, a couple of Easter arrows blah blah blah it was with utter delight that I found for the first time ever my picture published in your magazine, on the inside back page Mille Cymru photos.

My excitement was moderately diminished, however, by the caption 'Jamie Andrews' underneath.

I accept mistakes happen and, although it is likely to be another 5 years before I get a second picture, I could accept this if it wasn't for the three correctly captioned pictures of Jamie on page 27. I mean, come on.

I shall be considering carefully whether or not to submit my writeup of a 1300km, 19AAA GPS DIY in Scotland just in case it's attributed to Jamie and my points transferred across to him.

Did you notice the photo of your old Raleigh (albeit only teasing glimpses)? Bet you never thought that machine would make it into Arrivee

I've had a quick skim read of the 'On the Anatomy of Audacity' article. This bloke would be a boon companion to yours truly on a 600. I must dig out my short article on 'Heimat' and the randonneur.
