RobRook Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Hey guys :thumbsup: Been a while since I was about last, but I see a bit of chatter on the "May 24th - Chelmsford" thread, saying about a ride in either Clacton and/or St Osyth on the 31st May... Now shoot me if Im being a little too eager for a definate Clacton/St Osyth ride lol but Im up for it, and so are the other clacton riders, "powerz/Ash" & most likely "ruption0/Scott"...Im posting this now cos Im supposed to let my boss know 2 weeks prior to having a day off so... Doh! lol.... But yea, who's up for this one? Thoughts & ideas below Regards, Rob.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Yeah, I'm up for it. Can i ride up to St Osyth with you lot? I'll get lost otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRook Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Yea thats cool mate.. It's just a ride along the sea front, about 2-3 miles from clacton pier.. It's a nice ride though with the sea wall at different heights along the way and the odd line here and there Rob.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerz Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Yup yup im in on this one, and yea im cycling up there along the sea front.i think we should meet at the pier as usual and take it from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 (edited) Hmmn we was thinking on getting a lift down if we could.If not then we'll get the train to Clacton and ride to St.Osyths, can't the train go that way lmao.How much of a ride is it from the Clacton pier to St.Osyths, on a scale of exahaustion (1-10, 1 being easy, 10 being dead).And we'll try get an earliest train as possible, just so we have plenty of time to ride up there.EDIT: Could meet at the pier at 9 Edited May 22, 2008 by Fugley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearded Midget Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 9 o clock is good, means ive gottu get the 7 o clock train. id better have a cup of coffee splashed in my face around 6 o clock to wake me up i guess hope the weathers nice, and i hope matts van gets fixed....so i dont have to wake up at 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Yea I'm assuming you could meet us at St Osyth if you've got transport Ad's. Like Reece said, is Matt's van is fixed we'll probably meet everyone in St Osyth (if he is okay with that), if not we'll ride up at 9. I'll keep you all informed.

RobRook Posted May 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Whatever happens is cool with me.. I like the ride along the sea front to st osyth beach anyrate so I'd ride it alone if need be, lol.... It's a kinda warm up for me too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clacton doesn't involve riding 2-3miles in 18-12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Midget Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Yes, I agree with you. Clacton doesn't involve riding 2-3miles in 18-12 but clacton doesnt have emmense rocks like st osyth..which is kinda what this ride is about but if u dont wannu go the distance im sure we could split in two. but im 100percent going st osyth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerz Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Well im up for ridding clacton rather than st osyth due to the long ride there but see what peeps want to do nearer the time or on the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I'm in it for St Osyth, hence the early start. That way its not like a knackering journey down there, but it also depends on the weather. St Osyth is the tits for rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerz Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 Well yea im not guna come if its raining (as forecast) for the simple reason snowies do not work in the wet. Will decide on the day where to ride depending on how fit im feelin at 9 in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
