Rode about over the weekend from Friday in Surrey, meeting in Richmond, mostly offroad on Thames path and woodland trails, with about 25 people, only 6 of those adults. Was lots of fun.
Funniest bit was joining on the back of a military marching band procession in Walton (or perhaps some town near Walton). Guy probably from local rag starting taking pics of us, perhaps assuming we were part of the 'celebrations' for the Queen. We weren't.
Was using all-SuperC setup of barbag & four panniers, rears lined for clothing/sleeping gear, nothing got wet whilst on the bike despite being quite wet on Saturday evening & Sunday morning (mainly whilst pitching and cooking breakfast & packing).
Made me realise I ALWAYS carry too much stuff. Next time I pack, I'm going to try to lay all the stuff out before packing it, then have a cull before packing anything away. I somehow managed to have four hats! FOUR!
