TE meet up in the UK?

Shame you can't make it, Clock, hope you feel better soon.

Mako has had to bow out as well - it's her birthday next week and her family have made plans to celebrate it this coming weekend rather than the weekend after.

So this Sat it'll be me, Pamela (Vanilla) and Eli (uk elephant). Will PM you both later today.

Already half-planning the next meet up, maybe in the spring?

Sprin would be nice for something like Richmond-Windsor. I'd be up for it and might even have a new bike by then, something that doesn't weigh a ton and have a basket on the front

Bag packed, map checked. I'm ready! And weather forecast suggests sunshine...

[Vanilla]

It's supposed to be 18 degrees tomorrow. I might even leave the cardigan at home

Actually, at the risk of sounding like a proper girl, what is everyone wearing? Do I have to force my lycra-clad self on the world or wear my usual dress and leggings. My demented sausage look isn't nice for anyone

18? Forecast I checked said 12, I may have to re-evaluate clothing plans! Plan was lycra tights with loose fitting long shorts over, smartwool turtleneck, yellow jacket. Or maybe ibex skirt instead of shorts? Basically aiming for "casual lycra" if there is such a thing...

The BBC said 18 yesterday and now 14 during the day tomorrow and 19 on Sunday.

Hi ladies, sorry I didn't see your TE posts last night. Meant to message you both but after a helluva week, I just crashed when I got home.

Temps mid-teens I think. Bright sunshine but it'll be chilly in the shade! Route will have long sunny spells but in and out of shadows at times. So - sunglasses & layers!

No lycra 'required'!! Eli, your plan sounds perfect. Pamela, your usual dress and leggings will be fine - just bring a fleece or something for times we may stop in the shade.

I'll be in Ibex baselayers with casual stuff over the top. Maybe a short red tartan skirt just for the heck of it.

I was hoping to be at LMNH by 11am so Eli isn't on her own for long but now looking like 11.30 ish. The courtyard is sheltered from the breezes, hope the sunshine reaches in there this morning - if so, it'll be a very pleasant place to wait, for whoever gets there first.
