    Following months of torturous wrangling and late night deliberations, CCE’s Social Gratification Dept (Stockbridge division), has decreed that the next CCE in-person beer should be Friday 13th April @ The Royal Dick – Summerhall.

    Clearly this is not a 3 line whip and CCEers are even allowed to opt for their preferred attire, default is fancy dress as usual.

    Nominal start @ 1900.

    It would be lovely to put more faces to forum names, as no one ever looks like I think they will.

    If this could double as a pre-outing meet-up for the Overnight Capables then I shall abandon my usual practice of joining these events from Omans by Skype.

    We could talk about inflatable pillows, midge repellents, tyre choice, GPS versus paper maps and so on?

    I have cleared my social diary.

    I assume @iwrats is writing an agenda...

    REMINDER: your presence is required. Fun WILL be had.

    NB @Iain McR has now sold The Mountain Bike so there will be no risk of emotional blackmail / sales pitch.

    @Iwrats may, however, be writing an agenda.

    Ae last ride, and then we sever
    Ae fareweel, alas, for ever!
    Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
    Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.

    I had lost track of the days and planned a fancy tea for tomorrow (three day vodka marinated thin rib of beef since you ask) so I'll need to rearrange that or bring it forward and come down afterwards.

    I'll bring maps and we'll have a smelly outdoors table and a perfectly groomed Rapha table, yeah?

    @IWRATS will you be safe to cycle after eating that?

    The ethanol will be driven off in the oven. I may smell of garlic but that's nothing new.

    It's a pretty thirsty crew organising this year. Could be the first year the drinking starts before the speeches.

    We'll take you for a pint come what may.
