I'm keen to go but I'd rather do the shorter Stanton loop due to back

It is the Stanton Loop, just a different starting point. Your batteries are charged and positively itching to be used.

Just looked at Wednesday's weather. Heavy rain and 6C, so... wet and COLD this week. Could just do the tunnel which actually comes out about 400 metres from the Chequers Good practice for the Wobble.

John's in, so that's:
Ed, Colin, Tony, John, Rob and Mat.
Khane can you make it?
Mat any chance of John borrowing either of your Hopes?

I've charged up the Vision One. Would that be OK?

I've got some V-brake levers for John, remind me to dig them out of my rucksack else I'll forget they are there!!

all depends of wether my new boots arrive or not.
as the ones i was wearing last week are still soaked lol.

i'll stick em in the washing machine (as they stink aswell) and stick them on a radiator if my new boots dont arrive and they've dried out i should be there.

i'll keep you posted on here.

on a side note the weathers looking pretty good for tonight http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/ ... ather.html
