Is it okay to be totally nosy and ask for whattabout you and justom? :]

[chanaleh]

You can ask, you just can't expect me to actually discuss it in this forum. :-}

[surrealestate]

Hey, you brought it up!

*points to userpic* That is what you are doing. :)

I should say it's pretty obvious what's up: they're going to London to drink tea and watch plays. Isn't that what people do in London?

You must be mistaking it for somewhere else, like Paris...

Oooh, have fun!

[deguspice]

Looks like you're going to be busy this month. Have fun in London!

BTW, today's Boston Globe's travel section had a paragraph about: http://www.londonpass.com/

It's 68GBP for a three-day pass with free access to lots of museums. (1-6 day passes are available)

(if you buy the pass online today, you can get a 10% discount (they'll give you something you can print out and then redeem when you get London))

Boston by bike at midnight? This sounds intriguing and I would like to subscribe to this newsletter ... have you gone in previous years? If so, how quickly do people tend to bike? Are there any really hilly sections?

What's really impressive is to be biking it FROM NYC if I read the surrounding text correctly.

[chanaleh]

No, no no, no. >:-) *I* do not do the Midnight Ride, not being possessed of even one bicycle. Thus, I may safely run away to NYC and leave the Midnight Ride to my more ambitious compatriots, such as ablock and brass_rat (to whom I refer all inquiries).

It's not a newsletter, just an annual ride. Meet at Copley at 11:30 pm, with lights and a spare inner tube and water, and bike around Boston and environs on an architectural tour. The route changes each year. It's not a fast ride, covering something like 30 miles between midnight and dawn, and while there are sometimes hills, it's fairly flat overall.

They have no web presence, sending out snail mail each year to announce the date.

TUvan throat singing workshop? How cool!
