1am, Cycling through Greenwich, Who were you all ?

[Brains]

Driving home from central London at 1am on Sunday I saw droves of cyclists heading into London as they were spread over several miles they must have come a fair distance. Who were they ?

entry fee fortyfive quid. You can get twentytwo and a half years membership of The Fridays for that.

account here http://www.lfgss.com/thread92179.html sounds kind of rubbish - but, then again, I'm biased. The spread over several miles was a product of the signing on procedure.

Wowser, as someone once said. 45 notes and not even for charidee, but it seems, to promote a vineyard.

Other, more civilised rides, have a sommelier with Prosecco at the top of a hill.

You have to admire the wine salesman who dreamed that one up

I had to read the web page twice before I realised it didn't say 'collect your personal bottle of urine wine'

That pic of empty wine bottles? The year before last, en route to Brighton, at the top of Ditchling Beacon on a Friday Night Ride to The Coast, we had a small celebration for dellzeqq's birthday. That's some of the fall out. Rest of the pics are here

Alternatively, you have to admire the man Friday, Dellzeqq, for delivering the FNRttC jaunts

Choose either:
a) Yes it all fits easily into Stuaff's rucsac

or

b) Can you imagine the look on dellzeqq's face if someone turned up with panniers big enough?

(The truth is a kind person brought it in their motor)

If it had been in the rucksack that night (not that it would have fitted), it would have been smashed......

Meanwhile back on topic, the guys on LFGSS seem to have a good time despite the 'organisation', not because of it. Those food stops (or no food stop at the end) sound absolutely dreadful. Considering what a well-run sportive will provide for considerably less (decent food stops, proper signage, and so on), an absolute rip-off.
