Don't know if any of you have tried this event before but it looks potentially a lot of fun.
Organised by Green Events, it's called the "Real Ale Wobble" (try this link http://www.green-events.co.uk/events.php#id19 hope that works) and it's on Saturday 15th November.
It involves riding your bike and stopping at various check points to drink beer (well you wouldn't want to get dehydrated would you)
over courses varying in distance from about 15 miles.
Now I don't know about you, but I can fall off my bike without drinking any beer so this could prove to be very interesting. Anyone else up for this as I think a bigger group would make it all the more fun. Camping is available and I think there is some music on as well, although the details are a bit sketchy.
I've already been thinking of a few things to do to help around the course:
Wear full on downhill body armour for when you fall off (this is inevitable, I feel)
Fit stabilisers to bike to lessen number of times you fall off
Fill Camelbak with strong, black coffee in an attempt to sober up between beer stations
Take lots of cake to soak up the beer
Further tips, suggestions and volunteers welcome.
