    Shall we have a poll?
    We'll see how it pans out.

    Generally i am a big fan of early morning starts just in case something goes pear shaped and you run out of daytime.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    Does "deeper than they look puddles" fall into the pear shaped category - not a problem for Craig though his bike is so frikkin fast it aquaplanes (or so I am told)

    11am at the Rhubarb it is.

    10am for those who need a latte to get going first...



    I havn't been out on the TT for yonks.
    Really looking forward to this

    Except I suspect the rivers will be cold...

    I'm tempted to put my good wheels on but will suffer through with the knobbly front and trials rear...

    On the 350, 16f/14r with rimlocks, 18f/18r without.
    On the lardy bikes, 20f/18r should do it...

    Hmmm I might run my good mt21 front and completely rooted almost inverted knob t63 rear at somewhere above atmospheric pressure.

    Tyres are like haircuts. Doesn't matter how crap it is because you will soon need a new one anyway.

    Ok I'll see you in the morning with whatever tyres are on it & at whatever pressure they are. My bike is so fricken fast the tyres go round so fast the knobs fall off

    I hope we're not gonna do anything stoopid...again

    I'll get Bec to run a bath just in case...

    Edit: Anyone reading this in Nelson that hasn't been out with the NADS yet are free to join inthe hilarity. Bring a pighead for the banquet after.
