Happy with RT also worth considering (given OD's good deed) The Samaritans perhaps? (half & half?)

I'm easy either way as both good causes....

also - forward planning, clown bike destination next wed, Writtle... any takers? (small pub though but)

I’m in Bristol next Wednesday, unlikely to be back in time.

Clown bike available for Writtle next week.

Beer acquired for tonight and in two large panniers. [The trailer was a trifle unstable, mind you all that weight on the rear rack might be a handful too]. Uphill, backstreets route to the Jalsa from home. Might have to walk some of it! Only half a mile though.

What - No Route! We might get lost on the way there......

I hereby formally register my intent to join for Wednesday evening curry.
There was some discussion about timing of arrival at the Jalsa Ghar so I motion for the Witham Peloton to convene at the Spa Road roundabout earlier than is traditional ready for a 7pm-ish depart. That should allow for arrival, locking up faff and settling in for about 8:30. Sound like a plan?
(always assuming no colonial interference of course)
Also OK for 7:00pm launch from Spa Rd.

Good evening funsters, a nearly merry Xmas to you all.

I was just wondering, are we riding to The Writtle Wheatsheaf tomorrow evening?

I’m not I’m afraid.

I’m not out to play Wednesday evening

jiberjaber · « **Reply #12957 on:** 11 December, 2018, 08:36:28 pm »

Might be a low turnout!

Carlosfandango · « **Reply #12958 on:** 11 December, 2018, 08:57:32 pm »

Fair weather cyclists, I don't know

jiberjaber · « **Reply #12959 on:** 11 December, 2018, 10:03:33 pm »

Could rearrange to go to compasses if that's better for people?

Carlosfandango · « **Reply #12960 on:** 11 December, 2018, 10:18:18 pm »

You're joking, I've just arranged a 200km DIY to Writtle

jiberjaber · « **Reply #12961 on:** 11 December, 2018, 10:24:49 pm »

Hahahaha haha... Ok, sticking with Writtle then

Tomsk · « **Reply #12962 on:** 12 December, 2018, 07:28:59 am »

Small Wheels ready to go ... a proper test ride is needed having spent odd moments this week trying to cure a creak - there are so many places this could originate from [on the bike

]!

Oscar's dad · « **Reply #12963 on:** 12 December, 2018, 08:03:50 am »

Actually I could be out this evening. Anyone else launching from Spa Rd?

Snotty Gilbert · « **Reply #12964 on:** 12 December, 2018, 11:20:10 am »

You mean there is an option to use a different route/end up in different places???
No-one told me......

Not out tonight - out in London.

Now that I have a way to be home before midnight and at the same time a reason not to drink (which helps my gout) I might be along tonight....motorised of course!

We have a clown bike theme tonight... just saying

Barring last minute work stuff, I'm hoping to be at Spa Rd RBT for 1930.
Only got the one bike, so I'll have to make do with a red nose.

Snotty Gilbert · « **Reply #12969 on:** 12 December, 2018, 01:33:10 pm »

I still hope to be out tonight - but not at spa rd.
If the peloton is coming up North hill I could intercept at the Generals - Else I'll see you there are 9:00pm

Oscar's dad · « **Reply #12970 on:** 12 December, 2018, 03:46:05 pm »

We don't have a route from Spa Rd, I haven't had the chance to fettle one.

Snotty Gilbert · « **Reply #12971 on:** 12 December, 2018, 03:48:12 pm »

OK, I will see you at the pub at 9pm

Could use the route we had for the Roxwell Chequers, sail past the Chequers and take a right into Writtle? Makes the trip home shorter...

I've had a rummage through the archives and COME UP WITH THIS. But I might had a chance to load it into a Garmin so if anyone planning from launching from Spa Rd can oblige it would be handy.

X post with Nick. I don't mind whichever option.
