Nice try at getting away, but did you really think you were going to lose me by cranking it up by a few mph..

seriously though, not a bad rider, and i would have gone in front, but you kept wanting to go faster, and didn't even give me the chance to get in front.

 

[Tynan]

erm, so he was too fast to pass?

 

[gaz]

naaaah, he was just cranking the speed up and trying to lose me, on the roads we where on it was rather busy and couldn't get in front.

 

[ianrauk]

I take that as a yes then

 

[J4CKO]

Ah, get it now !

 

[DJ]

I was well and truely scalped the other day as well, I just had to eat humble pie that time as he was just simply faster and better than me!!!

I dont think he had done a night shift the night before though, so thats my excuse!!!

I scalped someone nicely last night over Vauxhall Bridge southbound. From a standing start at Millbank I hit 27mph by the crest of the bridge.

Of course!!!! You don't stop playing when you grow old, you grow old when you stop playing.

Of course it is, it's what cycling commuting is all about.

Most people play the silent game, I too play but hate to admit it. Yesterday, there was a Brompton going at speed I always try to keep up but... he is just much fitter than me. If you are on here ... Respect.

No mate, he wasn't wearing none of the above, thanks God! I wasn't actually beaten he is just very quick at the lights and I actually overtook him but he RLJed when I stopped at the lights opposite Surrrey Quays Tube Station. He is just much fitter than me.. hey at least I have the guts to admit it ehh unlike some people
