I usually head to the vic beforehand: usually I'd expect to be there at about the time the skaters arrive (say, 10-10:30)

Cool - I'll be coming with David and probably Matthew, though maybe closer to 11pm rather than the early side of 10pm.

Really enjoyed that first Fnrttc! The pace was good without being frenetic, the people were great and that sunrise... always a major point on any overnight ride of course.
Even found that picture of me here: http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/timk200/FNRTTCAugust2010?feat=directlink#5510875531659959058
(got a link to it via someone's blog on the cycling forum)

On the back of last Friday's ride, I am considering tagging along for this Friday's ride down to Brighton in case anyone wants to join in. Anybody registered for it?

I forgot to reply about that post.  I'd be careful about "tagging along"...I think Simon's quite meticulous about his process (I'm sure there are reasons for keeping a strict attendee list) and so unexpected cyclists might be frowned upon.

I would suggest checking with him first.

Yeah, for insurance and other purposes (these are official CTC rides) Simon really does like to know who's attending.  And this Friday's will have 4x the usual numbers so probably not a good one to add to the stress.

Drop him an email, though, and ask.  You may get roped into marshalling.

That explains a lot Dan.  It's so well organised and I'm so impressed at the due care and attention made for these.

@Matthew: Do you have the GPS stats from your Garmin?  I'd like to see the route we took.

I got in touch with Simon but alas work got in the way big time on Friday and I never managed to make the ride. There's always the next one...
