teenslain · 25th September 2008

Fuck da haters, I'll be rollin' (albeit very slowly and with a beer in my hand) with you bitches... I've managed to get out of the fashion ting my gf wanted me to go to... Should be a nice night for it (even tho' my cranks are squeaking and annoying the fuck out of me)...

alockett · 25th September 2008

I'm there. First one for me.

speedwolf · 25th September 2008

When & where does it start? I finish work at 6pm and have 1.5 hrs spare before meeting friends in East London. Haven't been on a Critical Mass for years.

alockett · 25th September 2008

Hope this helps -

Nice one - thanks. I'll be there...

It's supposed to be 20+ and sunny on Friday too.

rocksteady · 26th September 2008

i'm out :( it is unfortunate as i was really looking forward to this, i'm glad the sentiment has changed towards going to cm this friday and that people will be using it for a good cause rather than a just leisurely jaunt around central london. i'm also hoping the hgv protest will spark life into the cm again so that it can used in future for what it was originally intended as well as a platform for road cycling awareness and environmental issues.

CHUG_IT · 26th September 2008

I might pop along on the way home but I've a shitload of work to do and an early start tomorrow...

chris crash · 26th September 2008

rocksteady · 26th September 2008

+1. Should be there.

wools · 26th September 2008

I'll be going. What time will y'all be turning up?

pigfarmer · 26th September 2008

Can't wait till Sunday for the next ride. I'm in. 2000hrs start right?

Anyone fancy hooking up around there at 1800/1900hrs (I should have been in the army, I know my phonetics as well!)?

mjs110 · 26th September 2008

1800 according to http://www.criticalmasslondon.org.uk/main.html. Unless they take two hours to get going, which is not impossible.

Yeah, pretty much... Zzzzzz...

mikec · 26th September 2008

God, I suppose I could drag myself around with this for the usual half an hour.
Does get a bit frustrating sometimes though. Far more likely to crash during this than at any other time too. Anyone meeting in the Lamb?

teenslain · 26th September 2008

I'm here for the beer... Let's decide on a muster point... Lamb or tinnies on the South Bank? Gotta be the tinnies on a day like today, innit?

pigfarmer · 26th September 2008

Ok. So an 1800 start!

I'm finishing at London Bridge @ 1305 and don't really see the point of cycling back to Fulham just to come back again, so I'm heading to the pub around lunch!

Anyone fancy joining me, or am I going to be left looking like a homeless man drinking tenants super in a gutter somewhere.

Skully · 26th September 2008

pigfarmer/mjs110

usually lots of people arriving at NFT by 6.30, generally rolls away at 7.

I'm gonna either bail or join it late, like at 8.30. Can I call someone to find out where you've got to, please? Joe? jacqui? ... basically anyone who's not intending on riding for a short time but staying for the duration.

pigfarmer · 26th September 2008

So. Whats the plan for the meet up then?

teenslain · 26th September 2008

NFT with cans or The Lamb with pintage? I vote NFT with tinnies...

wools · 26th September 2008

I'm up for tinnies. What time you gonna be at the NFT Mr Teenslain?

teenslain · 26th September 2008

Gotta meet rik for 5 mins then get beer... 5.50, I reckon... By the stones next to NFT?

wools · 26th September 2008

Sweet. I'll be there.

BoBoB · 26th September 2008

What time are you meeting at the south bank?

I could be there for 6.30ish... maybe

Greasy Slag · 26th September 2008

30 of the finest minutes past 6 could be a little tight, weather like this i might just keep rolling and land at the NFT for 7. stay for a swift one before the mess starts
