Don't forget the ride is from the Cat & Custard Pot, Hawkinge, 7pm tomorrow!

Will probably ride Sunday. Log yourself in and keep in touch on here til Steve's got a forum on his website.

Hello. I'm new to your group and was wondering if the rides would be suitable for a beginners level. I'm not very fit or good at technical riding?

HELLO MY NAME IS MIKE AND I LIKE PLAYING X BOX 360

I HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO RIDE A BIKE

BUT ONLY IF SHES WILLING,,HAHHAHAHAHAHAH

You Boys are welcome to ride with us any time you like! You'll just need a bike, some Activ lycra, some decent lights, a thirst for guinness, a cleanly shaven face for me to give you a kiss hello and goodbye. Oh, and a sense of humour will help.

None of our lot know it's here yet, but we'll see if they catch on and save me a load of texting.

The interesting stuff will still be on yours, I guarantee it!

Ok, so it wasn't Hawkinge, it was Paddlesworth. Still, nice to ride from somewhere different and have a beer somewhere other than the Castle for a change, eh? (Even if the didn't have Guinness) :-(

Don't forget Activ dinner next Thurs 7.30 at Tim's Tapas.

Anyone up for a ride Sunday? Will prob be 10am Folkestone Tesco, but could change.
Log on and tell us all, otherwise I'll need to pester you with a text.

Hi Debbie
It was a good ride, but we actually only pedalled for an hour - Should have gone round again!

Regarding Thursday - There was a rumour going round last night of meeting up at 'Chambers' 18:45, for a couple of cheeky beers before the official kick off at 19:30.... If anyone else fancies this (and isn't going to work on the Friday) then leave a message...

Can't make Sunday morning but will be going out on Sunday afternoon for a dusk ride. Toby was interested, again leave a message..

Well done, Spicey - it's good to have you on the forum. It would be good to have you anywhere, actually.
(Sorry, but am still at work and had no dinner!)

Doubt we'll make 16.45 thurs, but will join you asap at Chambers - sounds good.

Still checking whether I need to take James to rugby match sun am - Evie training at Folk. Will update here on whether we come with you or do usual 10am Tesco.

Anyone else out there?

Hi Debbie I can't make it tomorrow as i've got to buy presents. Have a good ride if you go and will see you Thursday.

Stuntman.....is that Nick?
Whoever, thanks for logging on and see you Thurs!

yes it is me sounds like i will be falling over again on Thursday

Hi Debbie,

I am up for going out tomorrow, will log on later to see where you will be meeting.

Carl

Yo Carl!
Yes, I'm free to go biking, as Evie now at a friend and James rugby training at home. Poor Steve will be working in shop every Sunday now up to crimbo. So meet 10 am folk tesco tomorrow, OK?

I'll have to text the others who haven't logged on. Will you tell Dave or shall I text him?

Hello

I've just got back from waiting outside the fecking Roobarb and Mustard Pot since Thursday evening, but no one showed up. I'm cold, wet, hungry and I think I wet myself after I drunk all the water in my water bottles and a owl hooted and scared me. I feel that I wasted my time servicing my pushbike and oiling my sturmey archer 3 speed hub and chain with the finest goose fat I could, find only to be let down by a bunch of lycra clad riff-raff. It would never have happened in my day you know. I even purchased a set of all winter weather wooden brake blokes for the occasion, but have now thrown them on the fire to warm up.

of now to dry my woolen jersey before I trip over the damned sodden thing again

Hi debbie,

yes, will be there at 10am, i take it that we are meeting at the Cheriton tesco?

have not heard from Dave, so guess he will not be riding tomorrow.

See you

Yes, Carl, Cheriton Tesco. Dave's doing his car, so not coming.

Morphy, you twat!
If you hang around there long enough you could come to the activ crimbo dinner on thurs!

Great ride today!
Mulled wine was good, too, thanks to our unusually ungrumpy bike shop owner!
Check out a couple of today's pics on tha Activ website - acivfolkestone.com in case anyone doesn't know by now.

It cost me a fortune to cheer up our friendly bike shop owner. Thanks for the wine.

You're welcome! It was good to see stuntman standing in the doorway as we rolled in for our winter warmer ..... only sorry you missed the ride. Three of us were challenging your title down the "corkscrew"!

Don't forget, everyone, if you can come along to Chambers for a drink at 6.45 ish on thurs on the way to the meal at Tim's Tapas, it'd be good to see you.

As we won't be riding on Thursday, does anyone fancy a ride on Wednesday instead.... Saltwood Green at 18:45 as usual for your normal fix?

You won't feel quite as guilty when you eat and drink to much on Thursday !!

Spice

Changing your name like the wind, I see Spicey!
Sorry, I have swimming club dinner tomorrow, but if I can get my act together today with crimbo shopping etc, I could go for a belated birthday ride in the day, if you could? Sean may be up for it and poss Tim if he's not too busy...
