Hi all, I'm going to be in Cambridge for a few days about the middle of this month.
Seeing all the 60,000 messages about what fun the Extreme Northern Chapter of URC had at their get-together made me wonder whether there are enough URCers within reach of Cambridge to make a get-together (and possibly a ride) worthwhile.
I'll bring the chocolate :-)

Has there been a get-together in Tromsø or Murmansk?

Sounds like one of those would be an ideal venue for everyone who posts in the helmet threads to get together and sort it out once and for all over akvavit/vodka and fisticuffs.
BTW, Extreme Northern Chapter was partly based on my current position, adjacent to the top of the South of France. -- "But, I really think that hate is the dominant factor here." - Marc Goodman in alt.religion.kibology

Small flaw in your logic. The ENC had great fun. Let's meet with some other people instead.

Oxymoron, sorry :-)

Well, the logic is that a bunch of unlikely and disparate individualists with strong opinions got together and seemed to enjoy themselves, instead of having the session degenerate entirely into fisticuffs (as I privately predicted :-) THEREFORE we have a counterexample to the belief that it would be certain disaster!

And it's less than 5 hours by train to Edinburgh!
Hmm. British trains are a good reason to stay in Switzerland. Don't you want any of this chocolate? -- "Loved the one about the mountain lion with the shoe fetish." -- Cyli (net.vixen) in rec.backcountry
