I'm sure Kevin at the pub would put something on if he knew we were going to be there every week.

I think Dover wants to change it though.

Happy to bring it up, but have to be sure we will be there, I know the guy reasonably well, don't want to piss him off.

No, we'll keep the same pub if everyone is happy there, I like it.

It's just the route that I'm going to vary.

**Ozzie** · 6th October 2006, 10:18

ok, I'll have a word with him, see if he would be happy to put on light fry ups for 10 or so people each week.

Is that what we're looking for?

Once again thanks to Dover, it made a a change this week being able to see the goat track. Good pace and good company what more could you ask for.

see you next week

Spoke to them, they would be happy to put something on, like nibbles chips, spring rolls or similar.

I suggested for 10 people, ariving between 8 and 8:30.

Said I would firm things up later, not sure what, but will give them a call after a few more posts.

food is good.beats reheating cold curry in microwave at 10pm.another great ride, heaps more fun with a bit of day light.goat track is always good for prevention of squared-off back tyre from the motorway commute.only problem, still buzzing and wide awake when i was trying to get to sleep.
cheers all
see ya next week
