I'm headed to the UK
« on: October 21, 2013, 06:51:29 PM »
I'll be heading out shortly for a 2 month internship with a malaria control group based out of Crawley, West Sussex, UK. Should be a very cool experience, and I will actually get to do something useful with college.

I do hope you're bringing your bike  :riding:

You say you're coming shortly, so it'll be winter.... Make sure to pack a nice warm pair of trousers and a thick jumper  :euro

If you do the touristy thing of visiting Stonehenge, wave as you go past.

You're a bit south, and you may be too busy, but if you get a chance take a trip to the National Motorcycle Museum in Solihull near Birmingham.  It's a good half day or more of fun for any bike geek.  Trains are easy in the UK, you should be able to get taxi close.
