VCL are great Dan. I also introduced stepchild to Herney Hill, plus bought her a cyclocross bike.. you can see where this is heading, right?
I managed a feeble spin out to RP on Saturday, first weekend outing since Styrkepröven in June,
I need to get more miles in before I depart for winter retreat in the tropics.Hope to join you and VCL in the new year.

I went out with VCL for their sunday club run, my first club run. Was with the medium(ish) group. Lovely new route for me roughly around Westerham and Knockholt, and nice to see some familiar faces. Pretty much a perfect day for it (though the group could have used a few more mudguards, myself included). Anyone looking for a club in South London I'd really recommend them. Full range of abilities, track, xcross, road, racing. Wicked club.
However group road riding isn't for me. I think it might be that I know I'm too naturally slow to ever be properly fast, and that being the case it's too hard to enjoy the scenery when you have to be vigilant in a group. Ah well, good experience though. Back to small group fixed/SS and track for me!
