ECCA 25 06/06/10

[Dominic]

George and I were discussing this a couple of Fridays ago with a thought to doing it again. Last year was a pretty horrible day but it is a fast course. It requires starting at silly o'clock to get there eg I was cycling to George's at 2.30am but I am sure it would be worth it on a good day.

Wondering if anbody else is interested. Jon did it last year aswell. Might be able to share transport if there is enough interest.

I've entered already. See you there at silly o'clock.

Can't make it

Did you sort out the frame in the end Dom?

[Dominic]

I have just got it done this week. Used a Planet X clamp in the end. Only been out for very brief ride so far but I am very pleased with it. Especially the saddle position. It now feels like I will be able to sit on the saddle properly due to the steep angle rather than perching on end.

I am racing on it on Sunday. Really looking forward to it.

I've entered both the 10 on Saturday afternoon and the 25 on Sunday Morning. I've booked in to a basic but very cheap B&B for Saturday night (same one I used for 12hr). B&B plus an evening meal in a pub will cost less than, or similar to, the petrol I'd have otherwise used, and I'll only be half an hour from Sunday's HQ so won't need a ridiculous alarm call.

Let me know if you want the details and I'll pm them.

Paul and I are riding the tandem 25 and Andrew I'm also doing the solo 10 may even do the solo 25 but thats just plain crazy

A word of warning - you can't go southbound through Blackwall tunnel (no relation to Paul) this weekend, so take that into account when coming back.
