Hard on the heels of the March edition comes the April WARTY. This time we venture into Hertfordshire.

April WARTY.

11ses will be here.

Lunch will be here.

I thought we were off-roading at Thetford on the 4th.

Looks fantastic. Sadly, Emily and I will be in Cornwall that weekend -- but we'll make it to a WARTY one day!

If you're not adverse to an extra mile or so, how about continuing on the B1037 through Cromer and taking a peek at the rather fine windmill just beside the road between Cromer an Cottered?

I think that some of you are. I did mention in the off-road thread that it might clash.

Not to worry.

Google has a pretty good shot of it, Clicky and zoom in.

Sadly, as mentioned in the March thread, Mrs. Wow and I are in Devon for two of the April Saturdays and Annie has a commitment on one of the other two. 4th April it had to be.

With luck, by May the trains will be working and we can venture into Suffolk. Probable date for May WARTY: 16th (to be confirmed).

I am investigating our availability for the April & May WARTYs. It looks good atm, but we may have some other commitments...

What's your route? Could I tag along somewhere near Chelmsford?

Castle Ride for Action Medical Research on the 17th, in Kent. I'm booked into a hotel for Saturday evening.

Thinking of this at the moment, Clicky, but I could take it nearer to Chelmsford or through it and take the A1060.

Adam · « **Reply #10 on:** 19 March, 2009, 04:29:05 pm »

Right, in order to deal with my inadequecies on the attendance front, count me in for this, seeing as it's so local.

Would be better all round to rendez vous at Moreton I reckon.

Butterfly has another commitment, but I and my Orbit may well be attending

Er - I'll have to do the pedalling myself $:-\$

Who will keep the book on how many times Clarion says "ready dear/darling" before he moves off?

PloddinPedro · « **Reply #14 on:** 20 March, 2009, 05:03:51 pm »

I suppose it's pushing my luck, having just posted to say I'm doubtful for tomorrow's WARTY, but you can put me down for this one (although I was a bit concerned when a previous post mentioned "pushing on a bit to Cromer" - the only Cromer I know is on the Norfolk coast!)

clarion · « **Reply #15 on:** 25 March, 2009, 10:04:40 pm »

Booked onto the 0858 from Lpoo.

Will probs get the train in to London Bridge & ride across...

TimO · « **Reply #16 on:** 25 March, 2009, 10:30:50 pm »

Bugger, the YACF Birthday Party is the day before.

clarion · « **Reply #17 on:** 25 March, 2009, 10:32:46 pm »

Yeah. But that's the day before.

You'll need a nice ride to clear your head

*nudge*

Auntie Helen · « **Reply #18 on:** 26 March, 2009, 05:23:05 pm »

Think I might be coming on this one too, if that's OK. The CycleChat ride on that day is just too far away... being a 2.5 hour drive each way!

her_welshness · « **Reply #19 on:** 26 March, 2009, 05:31:54 pm »

Nice one Helen

Could you stick me down as a yes please!
And also, Ian of Cyclechat

Jurek · « **Reply #20 on:** 26 March, 2009, 05:48:25 pm »

There's a > than 50% chance I'll be there.

I'll know for certain, closer to the day.

RogerT · « **Reply #21 on:** 26 March, 2009, 08:38:25 pm »

I won't be able to make this one- and I still have the rear light Delthebike so kindly lent to me. If any SE Londoners are going, maybe I could drop off the light for them to deliver? (I presume you are attending the next WARTY, Del?

As long as you realise I'm charging by the hour.

FNRttC, April 9, I thought you were going to hand it back then?

rower40 · « **Reply #24 on:** 27 March, 2009, 11:03:34 am »

Another blank drawn by me - sorry again. Important functions to attend in t'Midlands both Friday and Saturday nights. So that's both the Birthday Party and WARTY scuppered. I'd never make it back to the Rowing Club, in best bib and tucker, by 8pm - unless there's a teleport that I can borrow.

Next one is when? (Eager anticipation smiley...)
