I'll be there
Sounds like the cue for a song...
I will have the kids with me, so not sure what the programme is, but I will be there.

I wonder if you wouldn't mind piecing out our imperfections with your thoughts; and while you're
about it perhaps you could think when we talk of bicycles, that you see them printing their proud
wheels i' the receiving earth; thanks awfully.

Best plan might be to arrange to meet up in the food tent at a given time when we know who else
might be there.

I'm going. Probably ride over for the day on Sunday, I was thinking about driving to the P&R and
participating in one of the rides but I can't seem to find any details of the rides.

I was thinking of going on Saturday. Anyone know where there is any information on the programme and
rides? The CTC website info is useless when you actually tunnel your way through the site navigation
to find it.

I enquired via email about camping and they emailed me a programme of events a couple of days later
as a word doc.

I e-mailed them about how useless the information on the CTC website was - that is if you passed the
initiative test to find where it was hidden. I think the answer from the CTC says it all!
"Sorry - we have ahs a few glitches on the web this year. We are setting uown website for next year
which should be under york cycle show for search engind purposes."

I'll be there, camping on the lightweight section. Have no definite Saturday plans yet. I'm coming
up on Friday.

I work here. Simon Ward used to work here as well, but now works for a company in town.
Send me an email if you want - there's a lot of cycling going on in York.

Me, Me. I'll be there, seeing off the early riders, from Peter Gray's breakfast bash to Derek's trip
to Boothferry, then taking a ride out to a well known cafe that it patronised mainly by PTWs, and
try and outnumber them (the PTWs that is).

I'll be back at about 1.30 pm, tail wind permitting and hanging around the stewards tent or the
trade/exhibition tent. We could always go and locate Helen's lightweight pitch and assemble
there! ;-)
BTW, you need a programme to enter the trade/exhibition marquees this year, the reason is
three-fold, the trade/exhibitors want it to reduce the numbers of light-fingered which in turn will
keep prices low, to increase the sales of programmes (which at £2 is cheap compared to the bargains
to be had in the marquees) and to get a more accurate count of the numbers going in to the marquees
(previously if a person went into the marquee then that person is counted each time (hence the
inflated figures), whereas it will now be based on programme sales).

Sunday afternoon.

York Cycle Rally, which is meeting for the 59th consecutive year this weekend (21-22 June).
Originally, it met as a reunion of cyclists from around Yorkshire after the scattering of
able-bodied man in the 1940s, so in August 1945 a reunion was organised to find out how many of the
regular club cyclists were left afterwards. It has met every year since as a social event that
includes some trading, some competing, some riding (especially Saturday morning), etc. It now draws
interest further afield with cyclists coming from as far as New Zealand.
The venue, BTW, is the Knavesmire (York Racecourse).
