Mays’ Guvnors’ Assembly jolly has been very kindly organised by Mr. Fossil in the ancient Roman town of Chichester, a little hillier than our usual GA jaunts Mr Fossil has done his level best to ensure that the traditional start, middle and finish refreshments stops are of the type of quality usually Royalty and Overseas visitors.
Now we do not want people to get the impression that the GA are fuelled by hops, but we do take our liquid intake as seriously as our cycling, the mantra often heard on a club ride “Drink before you are thirsty”
As usual a few members of the GA shall start congregating on the Friday evening in preparation starting from Chichester Cross at 10:30, we should say prompt but by the time we’ve had a chat, fixed bikes and actually got moving it may be a little later. If you would like my contact details “just in case” please feel free to get in touch and I am more than happy to provide my mobile communications device telephone number.
Finally Sussex Bob has been good enough to provide a list of accommodation in the vicinity of the start, The Nags Hotel, The George and Dragon Inn and then the usual suspects Travelodge and finally a Premier Inn.
So until May adieu fair riders, if you want to have a little chat about the weekend a few stout fellows are talking about it over here

As many of us in this Sceptred Isle may recall June 2012 was Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee, you may also remember it rained somewhat.
To mark this auspicious occasion Pashley Cycles put on their first Pashley Picnic, please feel free to re-live the maiden event here, the good news is Pashley in association with the Traditional Cycle Shop are planning another event wonderful event;
“After the fun and frivolity of last year’s first ever ‘Pashley Picnic Ride’, Pashley Cycles, in association with The Traditional Cycle Shop, would like to invite Pashley owners to participate again this year!
Pack a picnic and join us on Sunday June 2nd 2013 for a gentle bike ride, followed by a delightful picnic in the park beside the River Avon. It is all about taking a relaxing ride and having some fun.
On the day, we will ride through Stratford’s historic town centre and then go for a few miles along quiet lanes through lovely countryside to one of Warwickshire’s historic houses. Then it will be a short spin back to Stratford-upon-Avon to picnic by the river.
To add to the fun, we greatly encourage you to dress from a cycling era of your choice (from the 1920s to modern day), or simply fly the union flag.
There will be some live music & light entertainment during the picnic and as the afternoon progresses, some fine tea and cakes will be provided. We should ask you to bring a picnic of your choice and blanket to sit on by the riverside.
We shall have a free prize draw towards the end of the day, for which Pashley are providing some amazing gifts.
Do come and join us, it will be great fun!
Yours faithfully,
Pashley “
And finally a few photographs from last years event to whet your appetite, hopefully we shall get the opportunity to ride out again, it is after all Pashley Country.
