It's a bit of a dilema, but what are you doing tomorrow? Going to the wedding, watching the wedding, or going for a bike ride or going for a bike ride to the wedding:confused:

Just had a chat to a fellow cyclist at work and he is going off for a two hour ride. He is old enough to remember the last one and said the roads were practically deserted. Shame I have to work and probably watch the ruddy thing tomorrow - would have been nice to have got a choice.

I would have been heading for the hills with a good book and no telly in my new camper except DVLA still delaying the registration....So I guess I will remain in bed with said good book and turn the electrics of at the mains:confused:

and if there is a street party I will turn the hose pipe on them.........

Not much chance of a street party here. I do remember the last one (was it 1981?) - I was on a roof, laying tiles in a small village in East Lothian (Athelstaneford, I think). Not one car or pedestrian passed through the village during the service - very peaceful, it was. I would definitely vote for the bike ride.

Watch the wedding and then go out on your bike. In todays culture i bet everyone will be drinking in the afternoon so that means the roads will still be fairly quiet or i will be like deathrace 2000 with all the drink drivers. I would like o think the first one though especially if its a nice day people may make use of their bbqs

Speaking for the younger generation.

I will be out tonight, hung over tomorrow watching the wedding then heading out in the afternoon for a BBQ.

I presume the majority will be doing similar!

Anything but the wedding. Isn't anyone else sick to death of the protracted hype and hysteria?

I bought tickets for the Upton on Severn Folk Festival long before the nuptials were announced. So I'm just exchanging one procession of becostumed oddbods for another, really. Morris on!

Wedding? What wedding?
Nothing happening here :)
If you search through all the TV channels you may just find a mention of a Kate Middleton somewhere. Apparently she's marrying a helicopter pilot tomorrow.

Got decorating to do, hopefully will get down to Hampstead Heath in the afternoon with a couple of new cycling buddies- looks like I may have started a trend in my area as I've recently noticed more ebike's on the road :D ,,,

Hi JucyBike,

We have had a rush of girls up here these past months that are combining weddings with e-bikes! It seems that hiring e-bikes has become the thing to do for hen weekends... there is a photo of some here on our old site: LEV electric bikes for individuals and businesses (cant seem to upload image)




Rgds,

James

My friends and I are cycling down the River Lea from Hertford tomorrow (visiting a few pubs, naturally) while our wives are having a party with fancy red white and blue hats in front of a television.

I imagine most here would prefer my choice.
