Moderate Days in the Autumn (pre-HDIJ fixie rides)

Also keen to come along on the 4th but expect to be slower than most others and have very little experience of group riding..

Cool, that's already 3 of us then.
@youClown that's what these rides are for.

Add me to the list of people that don’t have riding in a group experience!

Awesome well then let's keep it to the 4th!

Enjoy all, I'll draft up a loop to follow, although @Ruserius is pretty hot shit. Although do NOT go on an alleycat with him after the ride no matter how much fun he says it will be

That's this Sunday coming, the Cemetery Cycling Club one, visiting London's magnetic seven cemeteries. And it is fun!

I'm in so long as it doesnt rain! Will be there on my Brother basketmobile (TM).

Looks like it should be dry for the ride in the morning but maybe a tiny bit of tinkling post-coffee. Roll out at 9am. Will direct us towards a coffee / beer place towards the end, howeve I sadly won't be able to hang too long. Really looking forward to seeing you there though!

had planned to be here but mechanical issues arose in the last days. aiming for the next prep ride.

All the cool kids are riding on the 4th ;)

Hanging at Elmers end cafe

Had hoped to make this but been ill all week, and bike is in bits. Hope you have a great ride

Thanks to all involved, great to be out in a fixed/singlespeed group again.

Good conditions to ease us back into the colder wetter time if year. Good to see you all!

This looks amazing! Can’t wait for next week (if people still fancy it!).

This probably sounds a bit mental, but I feel a weird sense of pride about rides like this. Keeping the FG spirit going.
I saw a woman riding back towards town after a ride on a road fixed or single speed today - seeing other fixed riders makes me happy.

Not at all, I'm with you on this one. Great morning out!

Not mad at all mate. I see a couple of lads a few times a month on their way out of college when on my way home from work and it gives me hope.

My favourite is there's a delivery rider who thrashes about on a dolan with wide bars round here. He's always thrashing hard and he seemed really psyched when I gave him a nod (me MAMIL'd up on a very sensible fixed, him in jeans etc) when he spotted I was riding fixed too he shouted "YEAHHHHH". Made my week lol.

Hey thanks for coming out everyone! Very fun day out with only two minor routing fuckups (which is low for me). Loved it - bit of rain, lots of leaves and colour change and plenty of atmosphere at the top of the ridge. As always I forgot how bumpy that area is so I got my money's worth. Really nice group and when it came to it some legit tight riding on the A21. I was under some time pressure so had to make a quick exit when we finally got to the cafe and I was a bit stressin'. Anyway an excellent fixie day because of YOU

If you didn't gram the vineyard on Pilgrims did you the loop etc etc

Anyone got a Strava link for the ride? So I can spy on you and gauge what my likelihood of survival next week will be!

Haha, yeah that was Paris-Brest-Paris!

The ride report really sells it if you're Audax-curious... 👀
