  1. It's a full moon next wednesday. Which can only mean one thing. It's
    time for night-riding in Nottingham.

    8.00pm Wednesday 27th October
    Meet at Hemlock Stone/Bramcote Hills Car park which is here

    http://tinyurl.com/6bmnk

    Buses are rainbow 4 from Derby/Nottingham, or if you're quite fit, it's
    about 1.5 miles from Beeston train station.

    Bring lights of some kind, and a muni or trials unicycle, ie. something
    with a bit of an offroad tyre.

    Look out for me, on a unicycle, with very bright head lights and a red
    rear head light.

    If you're coming and going to be late, phone/text me on
    07905 696427 and we'll sort out meeting up, it's quite an easy area to
    meet up in.

  2. Phew, almost couldn't make this one, but panic over, I'll be there. I'm
    even working on some DIY lights, just so I can see the big drops and
    things coming...
    And this time, I either want more people turning up, or at least a
    better class of excuse.

  4. If the ride alone isn't enough, you can all come and marvel at the man
    with 15 watts of glowing plumbing fittings on his head.

  5. I should be there, though a little late (15-20 mins).

    BTW when you say ‘Full Moon Muni’ I take it you are referring to the
    sphere that orbits earth will be full and not that we're required to
    ride bare buttocked :eek:

    And if that isn't enough, you may need all those lights if you ride long
    enough.

    There is also a 'a total eclipse of the moon'
    (http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=3666539) that night.

    How's the song go? Everything under the moon is in tune but the moon is
    eclipsed by the earth? Something like that anyway.

  8. Looks like it will be dry for tonights ride, though maybe not so much
    light from the moon as last night.

    It rained and the moon was nowhere to be seen. But that made no
    difference the ride was real fun, though very tiring for me (I need to
    get fit). This was my first real night ride and proved to be, in a way,
    easier than I thought; I expected to fall more often than I did. It was
    also the first chance to take my Muni for a good ride with the 125
    cranks I put on recently, and strangely up hills were technically
    easier! I do really like the 125’s for Muni.

    Cheers, Gary
