LONDON CHARITY BMX RIDE SUNDAY 15th SEPTEMBER - 26 MILES?
« on: August 01, 2013, 04:45 PM »
just found this and thought it might make a change from the regular London rides

My father-in-law died from lymphoma not long back so for me it's a very worthwhile cause.
Anyone else fancy it? 26 miles is not that far and it looks like a nice route - costs £25 to register and you get a free t-shirt to wear with pride (or keep your bike chain clean)
Let me know & maybe we can put a Rad team together.....

We can still get pissed up and have a curry afterwards if you like  ;)

It's not half as bad as you might think, we've already had a couple of London to Brighton runs on BMX bikes and the recent London to Cambridge one was even further. Even the 'booze cruise' rides I've been on have still covered a fair distance

I would recommend padded shorts though  :D

that's rubbish Ad

I've seen you still going strong pedalling back to the station after a London piss up
Despite the fact that you were leathered there was no stopping you*

Just skip the 3 pints of shandy and you'll be fine  :4_17_5:




*apart from the fact that your crank arm kept falling off and you occasionally fell into the bollards/fence/street full of people

Good stuff Matt  :daumenhoch:
That's a good distance for you to travel too  :4_17_5:

Just had to amend my page after finding out that my company only do fund matching for events relating to their 'official' charity (Save the Children), bit of a shame but doing OK so far with the sponsors  :)

UPDATE!

so far have had hardly any response  :LolLolLolLol:
while I'm very happy to be riding alongside bretty and maybe matt, it would be lovely if anyone from the actual village of london could join us.....

it's really not that far and there's no rule that I'm aware of that says you're not allowed a couple of shandies on the way round  ;)

Always fancied a crack at a decent ride  :daumenhoch:
Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.
