London Fixed-gear and Single-speed SJS Cycles

is anyone going this year, or thinking about going? I wanna go but my other half isn't interested in sitting in a velodrome for a few days watching bicycles.

Would like to go again.

Rollapaluza did a trip last year...maybe a return?

Do it! I'm in!

I'd like to go!

Should we start booking stadium tickets?

look at the size of that canal!!!

i'm in!

Chris, aka Aroogah, was talking about arranging a trip to the Ghent 6 at central drinks a couple of weeks back. I'm keen to go again too.

when is it?

The last day is Sunday 23rd November.

We are going to go and watch the final two days of racing again. I suggest we leave on Saturday morning 0900-1030, book into a B&B/cheap hotel for one night and wander around Gent sightseeing and bike shopping* until the racing starts at 1900.

After Sundays racing finishes (1900) we'll hop back in the van and drive back home.

Winspar will book the ferry, hotel and track tickets. There are seven places available in my van.

* Just an idea, I expect this will turn into a pub and food hunt very quickly.

2 places reserved on the van please Cas

BDW and Rickymundo

might cost you the extra 45 quid in cash to become a member like you threatened!

chrash, go the tattoo ;)

well, i'd like to go, and I'm a member, but am unable to confirm right now, so pencil me in?

I just wanted to start a list that is all......

Revised list

I would be up for this as well. I was thinking about planning something but have been too busy to get my s**t together for it.

can't leave hippo out.

Yeah, I put my name down for this after the last one..

I'm interested too - how much did the w/e end up costing last time Hippo?

Dunno.. but this one will cost more if it's two nights of racing + hostel.

Right.

We'll get onto this soon.

Who is Robofoxx?

as yet no female representation.....

malheureusement...the Cockcider cross race is not on the same Saturday as Gent this year....

I still want to go ! With you guys even.

You can go on the bike rack on top of the van Jos.

can I get a space in the van puleese?

"Cockcider" :-)

You can go on top with Jos.

It is early days yet, there is a lot of interest lets see who is going to commit when they find out we are charging £599 a head!

I'll give you the £5.99 to get to the race but I don't want head..

robofoxx is a chic ;)

Sweet! We DO have someone to carry the luggage and get beers!

Joke :-)

Ok, here's an estimated cost for the Rollapaluza holiday package...leaving Saturday 22.11.08

Includes

Bike storage in E1, close to Central London
sensible leaving time on Saturday.
Seat in our minibus, we'll drive you from meeting point to hotel
ferry
fuel
Motel/hotel style accomodation for one night in twin rooms one mile walk from track.
no breakfast, you can pay at hotel or pick something up from belgian cafe /patisserie
2 tickets (saturday night and Sunday afternoon) for the racing (second best type...on back straight, fourth row...they are selling fast though...so not guaranteed)
Return journey, leaving direct from track to get a late ferry back to UK...arriving back around midnightish on Sunday night

in the region of £120

as well as brekky you'll need to allow some spending money and beer money...should be room in van to bring back some samples too.
