I'm absolutely gutted. I'll know next time. Great photos chaps, and a fantastic array of lights. One can only feel sorry for anything coming the other way.Looked a really great ride. I feel ashamed to have missed it.
My time here has not afforded me much enlightenment. But my night vision has improved tremendously.
Wonderful pics. I'm quite envious. But I think I would have struggled with the 110-odd miles TBH. Next time...
PS: Sudocreme helps tremendously when applied before a ride, Stu.Don't ask how I know this...
Hope you are feeling comfortable Stu...I did notice in the Parker Intl. blurb that comes by email, that they are selling an 'Assos' cream for just what I think you may have been experiencing. In years past, when I used to cycle in very hot weather, the best thing was, and probably still is, Assos cream. Expensive but good. Sometimes it was worth applying it just for fun...![]()
That is going to require the application of the mind bleach.

As the wound's not cleared up yet (and it is a wound rather than a sore- well, at least now) I went to the GP this morning. Triage nurse (herself a cyclist) said the skin was really dry, in part due to the Sudocrem. E45 etc is what it needs. So, hopefully, that'll finally sort it out......

PassDoes she ride a three -wheeler perchance?
- never heard of it causing dry skin before...live and learn I guess. I thought an E45 was what you needed when one got dry skin in an EC country, but that's an E 111 isn't it...silly me. Get well soo
then Stuart's derriere!
This thread is perfectly adequate without photos.
It will be on Thigh News though...
