It rained. All day. Got mucky. Had a great ride with Pete and Nick ... nice seeing so many other cyclists on the roads too, always someone to say hi to. Ask @BurningLegs legs about the green bib shorts rider

Sounds like you had a great time despite the inclement weather.
The green bib shorts rider made our day .... and left Pete barely hanging on to his bike as he came off the road..... Nick and I held our line well, for some reason!

Oh yeah! Wiped that from my memory already! Very similar to the Liège-Bastogne-Liège incident - I somehow lost focus (no idea how that happened
) and caught the grass verge. Almost lost it but somehow popped back onto the road.Luckily noDidn't anyone have a GoPro ? We need a another member to have had a funny mishap other than Bob

More road experience, so able to get the right "gawking:awareness" ratio.

I had a comment from a bloke one time: 'You must be from the Tour de France', followed by a giggle'. Replied with: 'You must be from weight watchers'. He wasn't amused but his wife almost peed herself laughingI had a good feedback few years ago when neighbor municipality held a triathlon competition.

Better than what we had today. 12 of us (2 x 6) on the BMCC A ride. Literally 1 minute into our ride a bloke in a car coming the other way shouted out "self-gratification artists" and not in a friendly way. Doesn't happen very often. I think I'd prefer the sarcasm though. Love your reply.
(Just to clarify "self-gratification artists" is the forum's way of stopping us using the W word
)

Competitor who gave me that "sidenote" was at that point clearly a fed up of that competition so he probably try to find something entertaining at that point. That's my evaluation about his act. I was amused too much for that so I decided to not to reply for that.

GCN+ app now works on ATV 👌
If you have time to concentrate on GCN whilst riding, you're not working hard enough .... anything less than bleeding from the eyes and vomming everywhere is just a lack of effort Bob

Anything more than a passing glance at the green bibshorts is a waste of energy

I was following their wheel .. I was only looking at the bib shorts for safety reasons, nothing more ....
