    Hello David,

    It does help us if you leave a bit of the original post so
    we know what you're talking about without having to read the
    whole thread!

    Not this year. 10 times is enough, and now there are no
    trains it will be a nightmare to get back (and that's a
    laugh, there are still dozens of the old trains in service).
    Doing the South Downs the weekend before, also for BHF. Have
    fun if you are doing L2B, despite all the its bad points its
    a great day ;-)

    Yup. Then cycling home (80 miles) afterwards to avoid the problem with the trains.

    The subject line gives a clue.

  8. Thanks for the info!!!! Can't make it tomorrow due to work
    and my sister's 50th birthday party (major [censored]-up, no
    cycling for me tomorrow!). Good to know about the shop in
    Canary Wharf; I work there!

    Vivian, you recently posted about bike maintenance.

    Tower Hamlets Wheelers have a session tomorrow in
    Limehouse town hall.

    Also, its worth calling in to Wharf Cycles, which is in
    Cuba street, near the Rogue Trader and City Pride pubs,
    and just down from the traffic light sculpture on
    Westferry Road.

    Greenwich cyclists are starting classes in May.

  9. The organizers are renting some coaches, and I booked a
    place. Hopefully, I'll manage to get back to London on the
    same day! ;-)

    Vivian, you have no published valid email address, so I
    reply via usenet when I would normally send a quiet email.

    Good practice is as follows:

    [ signatures and extraneous text to which you are not

    Outlook does not do this by default, although OE Quotefix
    can be used to help it to do so.

    For longer posts you can interleave your replies with the
    paragraphs of the post to which you are replying thus:

    Trust me, this makes it *much* easier to read what you write
    and understand it in context.

    To be fair to Vivian, she's by no means the only culprit.

    They ought to give 'driving tests' before they allow people
    to use the internet...

    ??? I've been in newsgroups since 1998, when I hooked up my
    pc to the cyberworld....

    Did I do it right this time? Thanks for the advice.
