Sat Aug 30th - Pedalo Time

Yo!

Murtles and me did the reckie on Saturday morning/afternoon was perfect.

We are thinking doing this on the Saturday the 30th August at 12pm
The pedalos cost £8 to hire for an hour which is 4 quid each.

We’re thinking of timed two on two bank to bank racing.

Suggestions of what to bring:
Picnics,
Blankets,
Sunnies and sun cream
And Cans/bottles/flasks

We’ll probably set up camp near the south of the lake cos there's plenty of tree shade and sunlight.



list:

1. Shinscar & Murtle - Serpentine Grandslammers

worse still, you could cover them in bread and let those swans do the dirty work.. i hear they could break a mans arm...

30th is good, i'll be there with Team Zissou.. haven't figured the team out yet. i think short legs, big body mass and great spinning ability is needed.

Do they frown upon people who, say, ride their pedalos home along fuxbridge rd?

i had a shit crazy idea, you have to start on one side of the serpentine, put the bike in the front of the pedalo, then go to the other side of the serpentine, and race back to the start again but using the bike and the bridge - fusion sports
