Riiiiight. Gladys is lending me his Pirate cycle top (I hope still). I'm going to pay this forward...
GB can you be ready for 0530 pickup? Is little GB coming?
GB - that's an offer of a lift BTW...
Ah sorry I didn't see that! Do you come through that way... that would be great if so but I don't want to add any time on to an already early journey!!
Ah that is way too much of a divert... I could never ask that. please dont worry about me ill just get up early and leave 4:30ish for the train from Victoria
I'm guessing not but are there any spare pirate monaco's knocking around for Saturday? Otherwise it will have to be the onesie which is never good at any time of the year
Ankle is now pain-free, just a bit stiff and swollen. I'll do a tiny turbo today and won't try running until tomorrow, but am feeling pretty optimistic I won't be spectating on Saturday
Good to hear. I'm just about ready, just hoping I don't go down with the cold that my kids had last weekend. We'll see, but if the weather holds it'll be a good race.
PSC Could I call shotgun on that please? I will pm you my phone number to meet up in the morning
Very excited for this now, albeit a little nervous due to the lack of training since IMW. Not looking forward to not being able to having to fly back tonight, not go to bed until probably gone midnight, to then get up again at 4 to travel down.... but it should be fun. A post-race cake, beer, and watching England try and hold there own at Wembley later in the day more than makes up for it!
Nervous, I'm $hitting myself! I was up at 4am this morning for some unGodly reason so went for a run! Yep, great race preparation.... Just back in from a brutal day at work and have cracked open a large bottle of rather fine cider! Everything will be fine tomorrow I'm sure.
Weather looks good anyway. Might bring my TT bike just for a laugh!
Still not started packing and got to be up in under 6 hours. Oh well, just fixed last weeks puncture and found a rather large gash in the tyre, and dont have any spares, and also broke my hand pump so could be a rubbish day tomorrow if I puncture!

I girded my loins with a KFC at lunch. Feel much more positive about it now!
KFC = Race fuel. Makes you go like Brownlee brothers.
Best I can do mate, you're on your own now!
Isn't that a criminal offence?
If you ate a few more KFC's Jaffa maybe you'd have grown some by now and actually entered the damned thing.
You'd better be there when I finish with a nice cup of tea (1 sugar please) waiting for me!
If we're getting the orders in I'll have a tea Julie Andrews please.
Joddly, you are spectating on Sat aren't you?
2 sugars and a twirl along side please

I will bring my monoco with me if anyone needs one (it's a large so will fit easily over a technical T or whatever).

I could bring mine too. I can imagine that being hilarious going down hills seeing as I've done ~6 miles on it ever .
See you all at Oh-dark-hundred hours
I had 3 recently, leant 2 out to other peeps... now I can't find mine!
Good luck guys - hopefully will be along for some spectacularlingness.
Would have done it but I have a 10k on Sunday and need to taper!
m.eface
I have a spare hand pump in the garage GB, will try to bring it.
Meface, poor and you know it! Reckon you were scared I might take you this year!
