Subject: [wow] Week on We're Running Out of Titles Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2008 15:03:02 +0000 == THIS WEEK == This week the LONDON FRIDAY NIGHT SKATE develops tunnel vision. We'll be finding as many tunnels, over/under passes, twists and turns as we can with a few hills thrown in. We pass one of the best views in London ("shame the surface isn't the best as well", say my notes). We head through the West End snaking our way around the Embankment and doing the Strand before heading up through tunnels and alleyways to St Pauls, London Wall and half time at Moorgate. Then Monument , London Bridge, some long tunnels before we head over to Victoria and Sloane Square for the final run back http://www.lfns.co.uk/route.php/20080222 The SUNDAY STROLL is heading to the EuroStar terminal at St Pancras. Yes, in celebration of faster journeys to the skating meccas of Paris and Le Mans, Roge is leading us on a 7 mile trip to the British Library (insert joke about "stacks" here) on Euston Road. This marble paved haven is but an 'op, skip and a jump away from the new speedy blue chu chu terminus. http://www.lfns.co.uk/route.php/20080224 == LAST WEEK == Last FRIDAY was officially the coolest skate of the year. Reports are that it only stopped for 5 minutes - any longer, and most of the participants would have been frozen solid. And there was swearing. The SUNSHINE SUNDAY STROLL went to Victoria, Pimlico and Charing Cross: halftime outside Embankment station.

If you can help getting the word out to local shops, skate instructors (to be passed onto students), community noticeboards, gyms, health clubs, or anywhere else they'll reach people who may be interested and don't already know about it, please get in touch and we'll give you a handful. http://www.lfns.co.uk/feedback.php#contactus Press packs and sponsor packs are also now available for press and potential sponsors. Did we say that last week? Never mind, it's still true. == FREE LUNCH == Participants at last year's Hovis London Freewheel may remember the free sandwiches, or (more likely because they didn't get any sandwiches) may remember the 38000 bikes, the skaters, the radio-linked sound systems and the 9 mile loop of closed roads. This year it's on 21st September, it has extra funding from City Hall, organisers are planning for 100000 participants, and skaters are in at the planning stage. Expect big things. http://www.flickr.com/photos/coruskate/1820566650/ Photo from last year: Left to right, Bassfreight with an ASBOx on the back, Beatrix, another ASBox and Firebrox. == OVER AND OUT == Don't reply to this by mail: we recently redesigned our email handling here at the LFNS and can now state categorically that we won't get it.
