No Regents Park for me this evening either. Apparently the weather on Saturday will be much improved! M


Well I'll be at work all day Saturday preparing for an exam so if you want to get together for some laps let me know - I'm sure I'll need a break at some point! I'm only 5mins from Regents park so short notice is fine
 
I finished at the RCP tonight and walked to Baker Street, using the 'inside of the track' - only a few cyclists braved the windy wevver - mostly commuters as well, rucksack and pannier laden rather than the CycleChat racing snakes...:rolleyes:

Definitely braver than I am!

I was missing the bike as I attempted to run 6k on the treadmill at work . . . then I cycled home and nearly got blown into a second clipless moment by a particularly vicious cross wind and felt good about my decision!

Is there anybody out for some laps this afternoon / evening?

I was thinking of starting around 5.30pm, stopping at 6.30pm at Hanover Gate to pick up friends and continue with medium to low intensity laps afterwards.

Out of interest, when cycling as a group, how do you manage taking turns at the front (if at all). Our little group have never quite managed the elbow flick and peel off approach...generally if the person at the front is looking a little tired, someone from behind cycles to the front to take over.

Ooh I do have my road bike at work with me - I may join you about 6ish if I get enough done (look out for a tall girl on a somewhat dirty white Trek with a large saddle bag).

We don't really have a system, if there's 2 of us we just take turns, if zimmers and Dave are out I just hang on the back trying to keep up!

Here's hoping for a Sunday ride with a hill so i can give her a push - assuming Big Martin doesn't need one more, which I am sure he will

lol - i won't be staring hard at too many saddle bags that pass by in case I'm accused of something else.

um, i guess you can look out for a average sized guy on a grey and white condor CX bike (skinny tyres though)...my saddle bag is non existent! Will probably be predominantly in black with a red and white lid.
