Arrival time for them that are coming?

I shall be setting off from The Currently Damp Roundabout at 7.30. Not sure I’ll be by myself or not.

Holidays? It's been a while since I've had one of those!

8th of July would also work for me if that is better for most folks 
I was all set for the 1st, but have now been booked to take Acorn#1 to a university open day.

I can do the 8th.

I went out with my older brother today, we popped into The Spiritual Home and Joss very kindly sorted a mechanical for him (thank you, Joss!) I'm trying to get my brother out on the bike more regularly so I'd like to bring him along to MEMWNS. He says he's not fit enough but he knocked out 70k today without issue, so he's wrong!

So, where this week?


Also I met Mick and we stopped for a chat about our upcoming 600. That was nice. Is Mick on Strava?

I'm be on a floating hotel heading to Dieppe this Wednesday. Hope 1000 will be keeping me busy the following week.

A central / western venue on 29th June would be good ... and hopefully we can hear about Fenland Friends exploits, so do some crazy stuff folks!

Passed you as you were descending to the old brewery but I was in the car.   Nice day for it.

Morning  :thumbsup:  Who is likely to be at The Roundabout of Solitary Contemplation this evening?  Am I going to be on my own again like the previous two times I've turned out  :'( or am I likely to have company?  If I'm going to be alone I'll do a few miles before the pub, if others are about I'm happy to go with the consensus.

You know how I fear following your winging it routes so here is a pre-planned one

Well spotted and I'd have given you a cheery wave had I known!
