Shakespeare 100 sportive

[Gary D]

Well, that was a good event though the strong winds made it very tough indeed!

The signage was perfect this time. I didn't notice that any arrows were missing or redirected. There was just one fast descent where we didn't see the arrow for a left turn until the last moment so another one higher up the hill would have been good.

I did the ride with Gary D. His previous longest ride was 69-70 miles so his 105 mile ride today smashed his century duck to pieces! Thanks for the company Gary!

I'd prefer it without the gale force winds next time though Rob!

Colin,
Thank you very much for the company yesterday. It was a great ride in spite of the wind. I don't think I could/would have done it on my own.
I hope your niece wasn't too miffed with it being so late!
Legs are a bit sore this morning - but not too bad all things considered. I feel chuffed now that I have broken my "century duck"

Cheers,
Gary.

My niece and her pal had been at the car park since 17:00 but they said that they enjoyed seeing the riders arriving back. Many of them were walking like cowboys who had spent too long on horseback! I think they were pretty glad that they had chickened out of the ride ...

Colin, when is your single speed ride? I'm away a bit in October but if possible would be interested.

It's going to be on Sunday, 16th October from the cyclists' memorial at Meriden. I'll start a thread for it in a couple of weeks time.

Put me down as interested.

Sorry, I'll be down south, Dorchester/Weymouth for a few days that weekend.

Sadly without the bike.
