Watching an old bus zig zag up Anerley hill set the stage for a really good day

there was also 3 hot rods that shot up the hill before I could take a snap, also an Opel Manta and Ford Zepha by the side of the road bringing back the memories, good stuff

Sorry (but judging by the last pics) where's the fun in entering Brighton Station on a bike unless you do it the wrong way down the taxi exit lane??

I know. Not the first and probably not the last unfortunately. Struggling to hold onto the hoods and pull the brakes. It seems to be exactly the motion my wrist can't cope with.

Well, I was going to come actually...but work intervened and I didn't get back in until early Sunday. My Garmin was routed for C.P. my ear was affixed to pillow.

Damn, would have been good to see you. It's been too long.

Forgot to say.

When myself, Mick and Bob were waiting for the tardy coffee drinkers at the A23/M23 spur.
We noticed a cyclist in civvies heading towards us, negotiate through the truly awful cycle path/crossing and pass us by.
He was riding a Raleigh Grifter. Looked in mint condition, though a little squeaky.
