Yeah, i'll be out tonight on the boardman. Need to work of my frustration from my puncture from hell this morning.

I should be around about 6.15 in a lovely ensemble of red layer and yellow short sleeve with my added white flashing lights that make me look like a police car if i get the timing right on them.

I won't be wearing leggings.

6.15 is pretty realistic for me. I'll be in leggings and a horrible yellow commuter jacket/black top if I'm already hot. You'll spot me by my super-white shoes! Shall we all just pedal off when we get there and meet up en route/when I get lapped by you speedy types!?

Yeah, if we just meet up as and when. I might be doing some power interval training! aka trying to burn my legs out on highest gears!

Just out of the shower - a quick 4 laps after my commute from Richmond - was great

Good to see Becs and Topcat - sorry that I missed Karlos, will be more polite next time! But was on my final lap!

Didn't see Mice, hope all's well!

"The sensitive Impala Zimzumian scented the Cheetah and ran instinctively homeward...just as the hunting began. Soon it was a stealthy pursuit to encounter a cat, then a jackal - both being tended by a horse whisperer. Then a mouse, before fleeing toward the zoo of Camden Town, to peruse the treasures of humanity building their evenings."

I was only riding single, Paul - you could probably have kept up! :tongue:

A lovely balmy evening, and an early finish meant investigation of the lappers in Zimzum's back garden. In the Summer, this would make a nice mass ride...piknik etc.

Was a bit late leaving the office - all is good tho, thank you! I briefly caught a glimpse of Aperitif, Becs and Topcat1 as I rode round and did five laps of the outer circle and one of the inner, Will aim to leave office earlier! Hope to see you all on Tuesday. M

I work on baker street so i will look at doing some laps in one of the days next week.
But i will get there at about 6pm and leave after about 20mins. Not sure how many laps that is.

I did try to find you Miranda before I left, sorry I missed you!

6 laps for me, 17.5 mph average - not too bad for a voluptuous asthmatic with a hangover!

There was no way I could keep up with Paul and Dave though! Maybe one day . . . .

Great to see everyone out, definitely hoping to keep this going throughout the winter (as long as there's no ice!). It could become quite addictive . . . .

I was beaten by an asthmatic with a hangover.

My legs didn't feel great again. But no pain no gain and it is becoming addictive.

4 laps done so hit 30 miles in total today.
See you all next Thursday. And when i mean see you i mean , i'll see you going past me.
