If next week's pub is Colchester-ish way I'll probably be able to come out and play again.

I think we should comply with Adamski's request and go Colchester(ish). Are we ready for indoors again or are we sticking with our favourite beer gardens ?

I have no issue with Colchester. Although I'd rather sit outside I have no problem with sitting indoors.

Think I prefer to be in a favourite beer garden still, if only to make the most of the summerish weather.
How about the Alma @ Copdock? If only to prove to C33333 and myself that it really isn't 130km away.

Alma

If we decide on the above I'll give them a ring to check the pickled egg situation and whether we need to book a table (hopefully not).

The Alma would like us to book tables and they are prepared to buy in some picked eggs just for us

So are we deffo going to The Alma and who is thinking of turning up...?

I've booked a table for 6 at The Alma, I can easily add more tables. The Alma have confirmed there will be pickled eggs available. I think even if we do The Ceremony it should be eggs and crisps all round!

I wholeheartedly agree. I was merely trying to work out how we could rescue a potentially suboptimal situation. I am conscious that The Alma is a favoured Eastern Easy Riders venue and I don't want ted and co getting banned just because I ( a non-EER) had persuaded the pub to buy in pickled eggs especially and then we don't eat them. Which takes us neatly to...

Ah yes good point. Dunno about the rest of the Witham peloton but I can depart from the roundabout at 7pm so passing thru Tiptree at 7.40 maybe?

Will that be a long enough ride for you?

. It's only 25 mins to the Alma from mine.

Don't forget we're endurance athletes.

If you are coming up via Little Braxted shall I meet you outside the Colchester FC training ground shortly before you come in to Tiptree on Grange Road? If not any suggested spots?
