Impromptu post-social social post-Crystal Palace tri - Milkwood in Herne Hill

Hey all, a group of us have decided to meet at the Milkwood pub in Herne Hill between 6-7pm. Hope you can join us! They do serve food although sometimes run out of things on a Sunday evening so get there soon if you are very peckish. See you there! x

....

Here's the event for our club barbecue this Sunday after the Crystal Palace Sprint tri - let us know you are coming so we can be mega excited! If you are racing, join us at the barbecue afterwards. If you are not racing, come and cheer us on and join us for burgers and beer! The juniors will be partying with us too! Friends and family are very welcome.

Thanks, Saffron (social sec) x

WHERE'S THE PARTY? The Windrush gazebo can be found next to the cycle track on so those of you spectating can cheer on the racers! Racers, when you finish, join the spectators to cheer on those still racing! Friends and family are all welcome.

WHAT ARE WE EATING? Bring burgers, sausages, bread, vegi burgers, sausages and halloumi (for me!), ketchup, mayo…you know the deal! It’s a barbecue! If everyone brings enough stuff for themselves, there will be plenty of food to go round. Feel free to get creative and bring salads, bake cakes, or anything you like (as long as it’s not poisonous).

WHAT ARE WE DRINKING? Bring any drinks you like – extra supplies can be purchased from Tesco on Anerley Road, about 10 minutes’ walk away

WHEN IS IT? Come down as soon as the race finishes (first finishers expected not much after 10am). Juniors will be racing after us, so there’s another great reason to stick around afterwards and cheer on the youngest members of our club! Last year we were there most of the day, then met at the pub afterwards.

WHERE IS IT? The Windrush gazebo will be pretty near the place where THIS map says ‘Crystal Palace Park’ – near the steps of the site of the old palace.

WHAT IF IT RAINS? We hide under the gazebo! If it gets really bad, we will decamp to the Milkwood pub opposite Herne Hill station – but this is unlikely!

WHAT DO I WEAR? Bring warm clothes to put on over your trisuit – no harm in bringing a showerproof layer too just in case…

WHAT DO I BRING? If you have room, picnic blankets are very welcome and anything which makes a barbecue fun, comfy and tasty!

See you there!

Hi Saffron,

I have two portable BBQs that I can lend for the day. Will be driving to CP to arrive around 8am and could take them down to the Windrush BBQ spot before getting ready to take part in the tri. Will you be there that early?

Otherwise I could do it after finishing racing around 10:30am. Not sure anyone is really going to want BBQ food before 11:30/12pm are they?

Will bring fuel, tongs etc too.

Saffron fab. I'm not starting til a bit later so will come around 10:00 with a few bits that I can carry on my bike.

I have a couple of picnic rugs etc.

Hey Charles and Lloyd,

Thanks so much that's fab! Yes please yes please yes please.

Dear all, bumping this up the forum...please see this post for three meeting points on Saturday and Sunday where you can drop your barbecue stuff in advance so you don't have to bring it to the actual race, such as food, booze and blankets plus any extras!
