Club shirts for the new club room.

Can everyone take their club jerseys to the clubroom tomorrow, including spare jerseys for those tight gits who haven’t bought one yet, so that we can take a team photo or two?
Cycling related nicknames and trophies they are likely to win.

Hello folks, just a bit of a daft post, a bit of fun really. Without using foul and abusive language (a struggle I know, but lets try), can you think of cycling related nicknames and their likely trophy wins, if we had them, for members of our club? Be careful though…..some of them might stick!!
Here’s an example to start you off :- Martin Lucas - Sat nav- Winner “most time spent 10 yards in front of the bunch after sitting in all morning”.

Hello Thorpers,
It’s been mentioned before, but I’ll mention it again. Hudds Star Wheelers have organised a van /driver/etc.. for twelve of their members to go to Morecambe to do the C2C ride off their own back, as the normal organised event is not running this year. Four of us expressed interest to HSW to join them, however they are now full with their own riders. Is anyone interested in sorting out our own transport to do the same, on the same day as HSW - 5th July 2008. They have managed to get the price down (via use of club funds, a bit of sponsorship etc..) to $15 per person. I would like to make an official request to use club funds to part fund this event, though it may mean we end up paying a little more than $15, depending on the number of riders who are defo interested.
So far we have interest from the following people:
Me
Martyn Bolt
Matt
Martin Lucas
My dad
It is not a prerequisite that your name starts with M, though this would look nice……..
Anyone else interested? Remember - 5th July - not a lot of time left.

I was unable to make it out on today’s club run (where did you end up?), but if anyone fancies a ride from about 9.30 a.m. on either of the above dates, getting back for about 14.00 at the latest, let me know - robert.bradby@ntlworld.com.
