Title: *{* Meetings and Events for 2012 *}*
Post by: Karl on 17, November, 2011 - 08:35:47
Same as in previous years, this thread will be a "sticky" to stay at the top of the meetings section so it can be used as a quick reference for all the 2012 events and meetings.

Full details of each meeting/event will be given on a separate thread that will be linked to this topic, otherwise it all gets a bit cluttered and difficult to read. Dates shown may be subject to change, and locations may be altered, so it is always worth checking the relevant topic first before making the journey to a particular event or meeting  ;).

If you want to host a c5alive meeting just let me know and it will be added to this list. If planning a run, they're best kept to about 10-15miles with circular routes preferred.Using the same start and finish points keeps the logistics simple and having a Pub stop at the halfway point is always popular  ;D.

I'll be struggling to get to many events in July and August due to work...no time off allowed during the Olympics  ::)

How about Sat 23/ Sun 24 June or Sat 30th Jun / Sun 1st July ?

Your run is always a good one due to the lovely long downhill stretch  8) (..and the outside catering  ;D)

Post by: Retro Andy on 12, March, 2012 - 15:54:29
I'll speak to the boss and see which is the prefered date out of those Karl.

It's not looking like sun cream will be needed tomorrow (At least are motors shouldn't over heat), but looks like it's going to rain today (Friday) and then again on Sunday, so hope it will be a dry, but a bit windy according to the forecast this morning, see you tomorrow around 10.00am.

Many thanks to Steve and Ray for coming along today, had a great run with no breakdowns, but did realise that we all need replacement
batteries as had to do a lot more pedalling than would have liked. Met some nice people along the way, stopped at the castle for some photos, had a nice pint and many thanks to Steve for the ice cream.

Thanks Andy for organising, it was a great day. Weather turn out ok, no rain, a bit windy but not too hot which was good because of the extra pedaling we all did.
Thanks Andy for nibbles before we went, the beer in the pub and the battery your wife dropped off after a couple of miles as mine was flat :(

Have to try and get to it again next year  :)

The route starts in the Kings lyn area, close to the Castle Rising, down to the Sandringham estate a short stop there at the visitors centre and then a return trip back to the start via a slighly different route.
