  • The volume of links in this thread will see it forever moderated.

    Would a Google Doc not be a better place to put this data?

  • Bloody hell. It doesn't post then they all do at once, ffs!
    Edit: Deleted duplicates.

  • In the park yesterday, saw a trio of fixed riders which was fun...

    However on finishing I saw a Range Rover with this plate "6 pt" just cruising around

    Has anyone verified 6pt's times?

  • want.

  • Finally broke the hour, clockwise. Monday morning is the time to do it!

    dysar - 0:58:59

  • Getting closer...

    1:00:40 (G)

    Need to update list. Mod?

  • Clockwise last year at 1:13:57. Will probably try and do this again at some point next month. :3

  • Probably should give this a go soon, and tips?

  • Ride fast?

  • Pedal hard. When you go up hill: Pedal harder.

  • Don't get lost

  • Turn left at every roundabout, except two of them, where you want to go straight on.

  • Noted! (will definitely struggle in pedalling fast and hard tbh)

  • Ride in and out of the dales of Richmond Park like a cannonball. Avoid going down into the canyons, getting out of them again will slow you right down.

  • Don't smile at anyone or anything, or be friendly in any way.
    Watch for deer.
    Expect to be slowed by all the things possible.
    Come back with a litany of excuses.
    Try and work on the corner near the star and garter and never really nail it.
    Swear you'll never ride there again.
    Argue with the potholes.
    Don't drink enough because its only an hour.
    Ride slowly home or to the nearest coffee shop in a funk because you're not as quick as you'd like to be.

    Pick one of the above.
    Or ride into the countryside and enjoy variety.
    In the south, rule number 1 still applies for some reason.

  • And don't forget the speed limit is 20mph.

  • Overtake cars at every opportunity, then swerve back infront of them with an indignant glance at the driver's window. Under no circumstances allow another cyclist to overtake. If another cyclist approaches from behind get out of the saddle and move into the centre of the road. When overtaking other cyclists, shout "On your right!" into their ear as you pass. Assume right of way when entering and exiting all roundabouts. On completion of your set of laps, coast along the flat stretches with one hand on the bars, one on your hips, looking at the deer, and occasionally making abrupt changes of direction. Don't worry about dropping your gel wrappers on the floor there are people paid to pick those up for you. But above all, have fun!

  • Deer like Gel wrappers.

  • And don't forget the speed limit is 20mph.

    And may not actually apply to cycles after all if you trust Dr Hutch.

  • Going clockwise?

    No.

  • Don't sit down.

  • And may not actually apply to cycles after all if you trust Dr Hutch.

    Speed limit doesn't apply to bikes on most roads but I'm pretty sure there's a bylaw in place in the royal parks. I've been spoken to by the dibble coming down Sawyers.
