Great meeting up with you guys.
When I heard a few of you had ridden out from Bromley way, well much respect
Hope you all make it back safely and look forward to meeting you all again.

+1 to all of that. But the chaps from Bromley were Ianrauk and Mista P, and I could never admit to respecting them.Great meeting up with you guys.

I'm wondering whether the first new thread about it is going to be "Norm tried to get us to RLJ", "Norm rides without a helmet" or "Norm forced us to ride on a cycle path".
They are all there to be had.
I hope that all got home safe, it was great to meet Abs, Luke and Davy again, and to meet all the others for the first time. And I hope Geoff's elbow has stopped bleeding by now.

So. Did you lot make the pub? There was obviously a crash which could have waylaid things - didn't want to ring and disturb things. texted DavyW as he's disturbed enough already...

I went in all three directions and returned. Back across the Wick, left to the Lake and straight on... check the data on the photo!

made it back at 7ish. Great ride and great to meet you all. I branched off with Luke at Twickenham on the return leg and got some assistance from South West Trains who got me to Vauxhall where I rode back from to get a close to my ton as I could. Such a hot day with our friend the head wind as well along with not drinking nearly enough took its toll on my legs. Feeling totally frazzled

I only did half that and feel the same. Same reason didn't drink enough.
Good for you and Luke on the 100.

Wimp.
We got the the pub at about 1.15 'teef.
Left at 3 for a loop of Dorney.
Jeez the ride back to London was tough. Very tough.. the wind..the bloody wind.
Oh yes and some arshole chav spraying us all with water from his little shitbox hatchback.
A great ride though. Very hot at times.
Runnymead War Memorial impressed those that had not visited/seen it before. A very sombre place.
Very nice to meet Norm, LiloLee and Hotmetal today. Thanks Norm for taking us through Windsor Great Park, the pub and Dorney. For allowing us to cycle on the pavement and to watch you cycle with a helmet dangling down by your side.
And nice to bump into Des in Windsor Great park.
Got my x100 miles in by the time me and Abs got back to HPC. We had a coffee then went our separate ways. I got to London Bridge and thought bugger it i'm bushed. Let's see if there is a train to Orpington.. there was in 5 minutes.. so jumped on that. So 106 miles for the day and keeps me up to date with my Century a month challenge.
Thank everyone for coming along always a pleasure cycling with you guys, old friends and new.
See you next month.. Maldon here we come.
Just uploading some pics.

Des texted me to say that he'd bumped into you - his text was at 13:00 - my alternative was a ride to Christmas Common and onwards, with him!
Did you see the silver balloons and all that jazz in the pub? Please tell me I'm not dreaming!
At least I didn't end up in Staines.
Yet.
