Just when you thought it was safe to finish a ride without a monster barbeque and as many canisters of ale as you can eat...
:demon:
-
How many beer tokens?! I am in!
-
Will the grill chef be chucking Linda McCartney on the coals? I like the onion and rosemary bangers, but for the more refined plant powered palates amongst us, her chorizo and red pepper sausagey offering goes really well with a chilled can of Dead Pony Club. And a bag of skittles. Buttered
-
In.
-
It's the ACH venison burger that does it for me.
Word from the Moose is that the beer is also on it's way....
Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
ACH

This year will also see the inaugural introduction of Beer Hunter.... The game of luck, nerve and ale :demon:

Will the grill chef be chucking Linda McCartney on the coals?
There's probably not much meat left on her by now. And what there is won't exactly be fresh.

I like my steak aged, but this might be a bit far!

Is this likely to hit capacity soon? I'd love to ride this but don't want to commit until I'm certain I'll be okay after this weekend's 600...
-
You'll be fine. Tap pay......
-
Entries continue to swell at 50+ and riders can enter right up to kick-off
Meanwhile back at ACH HQ the Beavertown is chilled 'n' ready in the Stags Head Pub-Shed
This year we have a tyrannical trio of Neck Oil, Gamma Ray and Lupoloid coming in at a Volume of 4.3%, 5.4% & 6.7% respectively
-
Awww, I think that 'Lupoloid' is gonna send me to Heaven!! ;D :thumbsup:
-
I've somehow deleted the information email from Justin :facepalm:, is there any chance you could send it to me again?
-
You'll be fine. Tap pay......
I have now entered. Have a few numb fingers after the weekend but otherwise feel fine :thumbsup:
-
I entered some time ago but don't recall any info emails. Have I missed something??

Slight change to the original menu folks....

If I had the time, I would take the mudguards off.
:thumbsup:
-
My first calendar event. Blimin' loved it. Thanks to all involved!
-
Very good day out.
I'm still not convinced there was only 1400m of climbing.
Learnt many things today - Wind is more tiring than hills, my new old saddle is not as bad as I remember, sandals are the future (properly sweaty feet today after choosing shoes), 69" is a perfectly acceptable climbing gear thay I may just keep using, and Enfield is about 30km long, or at least felt like it.
Left my spare phone batteries at a garage in Cambridge, and battery ran out just by Chelsea bridge so no ECE for me. Boo, hiss. (Woke up this morning and was still annoyed by this amd I just couldn't motivate myself to do Rowlands either, so a 5point weekend ends up being only 2)
Hey ho - looking forward to the hill fest that is Greenwhich Mean Climb in a couple of weeks to finish what has been a good season.
-
A+++ would ride again
-
What a nice day. Thanks to ACH for arranging the last day of the summer for us.
This ride has done nothing for the numb fingers on my left hand though. >:(
-
Many thanks to ACH for a top notch day out, thoroughly enjoyed that.
-
Fantastic route!
Sadly I was feeling ill when I set off so dropped out at the first cp.
I'll be back next year though!

Hello Folks

PS We have a pair of clear cycling glasses in the lost property box...
-
Those'll be mine - I popped an email over, but I'm not sure who checks it!
Fantastic day out and cracking BBQ, thanks to all involved for putting it on!
-
Thank you for your kind comments folks :)
A massive thank you also to Andy Yates, Big Jim Cope & Mini Big Jim Cope and Ivan for their support at the controls and at Arrivee.
best,
Jonah

Hello Folks
We had a massive 62-riders who got round last Saturday including 15-riders from Audax Club Hackney
Good effort folks!
OUT
-
Oh and by the way, no one from ACH packed, not even Bradster...
-
Kick of for edition-5 is 0830 this Saturday folks
I can almost taste the Chorizo, rocket and pepper ciabatta with a drizzle of olive oil or is that the Harira and couscous couscous? Who knows, the killer- coffret of Beavertown will no doubt assist one's taste buds....
See you outside Thd Saluz folks
Jx

Typo: kick-off is at 0800

Wow, that was a great ride! Had to scoot after Arrivee so missed the food ; ( I do hope that someone had my burger and beer tokens!!
