Exclusive Bike ride

[jimi]

Stingo & I have bought a tandem and we're going for the round the world drinking record on it. We're having a coming out party tomorrow night before we ride away on our bicycle built for two. But we're not telling TCM,Tome,Zeffie, Cutie or JFM about it, Joe can come cos he's a nice bloke unlike that other rabble (and he might gie us a wee lift across the watery bits)

Any chance of a photo of said tandem?

Who's driving/navigating?

A mate and I once cycled 300 miles on a tandem for a bet - Don't ask !

Re: Exclusive Bike ride - latest news

stingo and jimi set off BUT ran aground when they went from the pavement to the road bit and scuffed their undersized shoes on the kerb, precipatuing the falling over which entailed them flailing around on the ground for a couple of days.

Now, some people might laugh and carp at this BUT NOT ME. Cos i think it is just one of those things. I am confident that if they return the thing to portstmouth they can set off again with no probs.

Hey Jimi, I just bought a flashy new digital camera so we can take photos of the silly shoes people wear in pubs.

Did you notice that in their photos, there was not one beer. Sad bunch really!

You and Stingie has been spotted practising plan B in case you can't scrounge a lift on M5.

Song for Stingo

Jamsie, Jamsie, give me your answer do,
I’m half crazy cycling behind of you.
Your buttocks are wide and flabby,
Your temperament is crabby.
And here’s the nub:
When we get to the Pub
Will I have to pay – or you?

That reminds me of a story.........

When I used to do the London to Brighton
bicycle ride, there used to be a group of gentlemen
who rode a bicycle made for three (tri-dem)
The one at the back used to play the
bagpipes as they rode along.
They used to get a rousing cheer as they went by

However I noticed that after a number of stops at
various hostelries both the cycling and the playing
became progressively more ragged.
I am not aware if they ever made it to the finish line
