Ride to the Wall - October 2nd 2021 - OUR TRIP CANCELLED

We have had to cancel our trip to the NMA again this year.   Not because of Covid-19 but due to sheep-like morons rushing out to fill their cars with petrol by panic buying. The same absolute shitheads did it with bread and toilet rolls before and now they have fucked the entire country up with their stupidity.

Ride to the Wall 2021 - Still On

The government putting back the so called "Freedom Day" from June 21st to July 19th has affected many events. The RTTW is still only accessible to the first 4000 that booked when reservations opened at the end of April. We have a hotel booked for the Friday evening near Milton Keynes and it has a bar and restaurant as well. I need to book the day off as flexi-leave as it is outside the school holidays and my term-time only contract. By then I might be back working in the office for the last few months before I retire.

The wristbands and pins arrived today. Plus two very bright stickers for the bike.  As this is a long journey over the weekend, I will definitely be on the Rocket and not the Kettle.

Ride to the Wall 2021

Tickets and wristbands have begun to arrive across the country for this event. It was limited to 4000 due to covid. I think that is the number of bikes.   As usual post to this corner of Kent takes longer than to other parts of the country!  Our stuff hasn't arrived yet but that's not a worry as the event is in October! I say this as people are commenting on the contents of magazines that I subscribe to, and mine arrives a few days after everyone else.  With a surname beginning with D if they went alphabetically, then I'd be near the first? https://www.rttw.org/

Ride to the Wall 2021

Tickets booked for me and Neill this evening. Earlier the website at Sagepay couldn't cope. Didn't expect to get in leaving it so late. Two tickets booked departing Northampton Services on the M1. Same cheap motel booked as last year at Newport Pagnell. Has a bar and food. That'll do...
