FNRttC 30th October to Whitstable
This could be a toughie. If it's dry and cold we might go back to the original route down to Dartford, and add a loop to Coolham. If it's wet it will be a real test, whichever way we go. Feeling tough? FNRttC tough? Make that call.

There is talk of a family holiday but, stacked against that, is a bit of reluctance on the part of a teenager to go away with his family. That and the fact that the price of said holiday would buy a significant proportion of the furnishings for a seaside pied-a-terre.
If at home, definitely. |

I'll have to spoil Simon's list of top-rated-crew by also saying yes please.
 It'll be interesting to see what the weather does, so far it's been pretty mild of the time of year. I could have got away with just my long sleeved Ground-Effect Merino and shorts for this weekend's FNRttC, but ended up using the tights and fleece as well, since I had them. I suspect that later in the month the temperatures will have dropped a bit lower.

Let's have millions of punctures! Tim O has the most elegant pump which looked so cool you could have turned topcat's Assos and Rapha into Lidl remnants at a stroke...
Unfortunately, in a show of muscle, Adam used his pump to break the valve tip off inflate Claudine's inner tube  and Tim's proffered style object was refused - much as I wanted to have a go. 10/10 Tim.

Tim's one of those people who has a skill, and, because he has it, he's forgotten it's a skill. Most people are awful at fixing punctures. If he fixes a puncture (and the same can be said of Aperitif or BigSteev) the puncturee will reap the benefit when they next puncture.
There's a chap in the Cheam and Morden who is about 74 and not muscular. He can get a tyre back on a rim without levers. Any tyre, any rim. Adrian C Andrij B Martin F Tim O Marilyn B Andy A John C Last edited by dellzeqq; 4th Oct 2009 at 22:25. |

Andy A will come to play.
So, we're setting off at the stroke of midnight, as Britain (and the rest of UTC/GMT) enters Halloween. I trust there will be costumes?
