If I'm not hung over, I'll pop in at the café to say hello.

Hi George, Michelle looks like the only member who is going to join, and she is going to link up with some friends at blacklisted. I will join the A's at the café for the leg back.

Thanks for the company earlier team - and apologies if I seemed a bit churlish breaking off at Hartlebury. My endurance fitness has definitely taken a bit of a kicking since my accident, and peeling off early (and 25 miles shorter!) was definitely the right choice by the time I got home. Hope you a...

Hi Matt, yes start 8:45am, good question, a little ambiguous!

If my legs have recovered from an adventure on Thursday, I'll see you out on the route somewhere...will confirm late...
