Somerset Cycle Ride,like the Larndan ones.

[Rhythm Thief]

Ahem! That wasn't a detour. I was trying to retrieve an errant Rhythm Thief after he turned off. Turned out that he'd nipped behind a hedge for a wee while I sailed on past in search of him...

Great to see the pic's and put faces to names, nice one User76 for putting it together and getting RT back on his bike!

Now, all we need to do is organise a big central UK ride and get all the regions together!?

*tdr1nka goes into logistics meltdown*

Funny , great minds and all that!! I was thinking of that soleless arm pit of the UK they call Reading!! As you so rightly pointed out though Logistical nightmare!

I didn't go behind the hedge! Now if you follow my link and hit satellite and zoom in on the Burnham Cake Stop, you will see my path to the loo as I had my garmin in my pocket.

Talking of having a leak. When I got home at 3pm I realised I hadn't taken a leak all day since 8am
3x cups of tea and a bidon It was like a dam bursting
It's the only problem with bibs ..such a palava to take a leak.

You didn't drink that bidon did you

we believe in recycling everything !

Nice pics folks! Sorry I couldn't make it but hope to in future. I had a few too many wines on Saturday and was a bit the worst for wear sunday morning. I consoled myself on Monday with a days leave and a new route by cycling to Burnham-on-Sea via Cheddar/A38 and then back home via Mark/Wedmore. I sat on the sea front eating a biccy and thinking "Awww bollocks".

I think I may have cycled passed surfgurl the other week. Probably someone else completely but....! Long flat between Wedmore and Glastonbury. You were all in red and looking rather sexy I might add. (got a bit of a thing for girls in lycra)

 

[cyclenic]

did you see this ? there are 4 rides from 64km to 200km from Bishops Lydiard . we could use the Audax organisation to join up for a CC ride

 

[cyclenic]

bit far for my first long ride. (i know you guys are much more used to long rides, my 15 miles is average for me) i'll practice more!

 

[summerdays]

You need to live closer to me... 15 would be fine for me.

 

[cyclenic]

doh

i'd like to meet you all for a ride though

 

[peanut]

lucky you didn't come on the Somerset ride then , it turned out about 35miles I think. I know a certain part of my anatomy was a little tender
Don't worry too much about the actual mileage. If its a relatively flat route (as the Somerset ride was ) you'll find no problem in riding more than 15 miles because when you ride with others you are sheltered from the wind and that helps pull you along much easier.

 

[Iainj837]

I take it another ride has been planned yet I would love to join one User76 are you planning the next 1 ?
