Basel Sunday Cycle - Slowup 2008

Cheers Pat,
I'll probably cycle to the SBB from Weil via a more direct route, then join you from there along the official route all the way back to Weil.
Maybe we could stop off for a drink and a snack there, as it'll be lunchtime by then.

Sorry, short notice, but I'm going to have to give this a miss. Too much work on, I'm afraid.

Thanks Pat for organising. It was a great day and the weather was fabulous. The fests were so well organised and the beer well deserved. Looking forward to finding out the total km's we managed in the end......it was a fair few I'm sure judging by the aches and pains today!!

We finally got home at 11pm after stopping at a gorgeous little restaurant in Germany before wobbling home.

I'll upload pics soon

11!!!!!! - that was a long day

It was a great ride. I read in the newspapers this morning that again around 40,000 people took part - which was probably in part to the great weather, which as you say was fantastic.

We did 51.2 km, so about 4 more the the main route (ie from the station to join the route etc).

Sorry to leave you early at that last "Fest", but it sounds like you had a great evening

Really sorry I bailed out at the last second. Not my usual style. Just was exhausted from work and didn't hear the alarm clock. Most embarassing.

Glad you guys had a good time, wish I'd been there.
