I think the Omnium belonged the guy sat across from me. I was sat directly behind you with my wife. We’re both freelance so we get to loaf off and drink coffee on a school day :-D
I only spotted the LFGSS sticker on your bike as we were leaving and felt weird about doing an abrupt about-turn to accost you :-D

@si_mon628 hahah thanks for passing on the message, that’s my first lfgss accolade right there
@AlexD ahhh no way, in civilian clothes or were you the omnium mini max person? I was spying what I thought to be a partly covered up Paradise Cycles sticker on it and was wondering whether to say hi or not.
@MicroDosed™ yeah it’s class, like a long computer game level or something. The Severn Bridge bit was alright to be fair, views were nice, the bits out of Bristol were fine then it got some pretty quiet lanes before getting to the ‘seafront’ that was actually all blocked off meaning I had clamber over some fences to walk through a farmer’s field of sheep to reach the road again. I quite like those quiet lanes that skirt in and around motorways. I always feel quite smug cruising along those whilst getting glimpses of cars razzing along. But yeah, actually negotiating the slip road crossings to get to the bridge is long. Then they’ll just sling a ‘this side is closed, go back and use the other one’ sign right at the final barrier. Nice.
