Blinking brilliant

Have a look at the aftermath thread.

Is it this coming weekend you do the DtilD at Thetford?

 

[unocogero]

Possibly... :shock: :? :cry: :roll: :shock: :shock:

I'm not sure yet. I've got a crappy cold but I'm desperate to go...

The Peaks ride looked great...Really good fun.

 

[orange71]

yes - sorry you weren't there, it was one of the best I've been on in a while. Goos luck this weekend!!

Hoping my light will arrive this week for a ride next week?

 

[unocogero]

I've got one on order too. Could do with it this weekend I think!

I see from the aftermath that you were crowned 'King of the Mountains'... Despite being from the 'flat' East Midlands

On October 18th (Sunday) there is the Caythorpe Chase which is a 28 mile loop from Caythorpe Playing Field. Mixture of track, field-edge, quiet lanes. Not a race and not technical or particularly hilly (with one notable exception if they keep the same route as last year). Pretty exposed for large stretches so wind and weather matter.
The entry fee is £10 (£12 on the day) and plenty of cake is provided. Entry form here: www.granthamtri.co.uk/Entry_Forms/TheCa ... se2009.pdf

Caythorpe is near to Grantham so kind of shared by the East Mids and Lincolnshire Groups. Seems a good excuse to get together.

What do you think?

I'd be up for it I think!
