Sunday 14th December Ride East

I was waiting at Brick Lane Polo for you lot to turn up, glad I didnt wait too long now, sounds like it was a bit slow. Still looks like a great route, will do it another time.

Got home at 16.10. Punctures led to inevitable split up as in got a bit cut off by the river after Greenwich. Great fun though and thanks to John for all the organising and titbits of history along the way.

Am out I am afraid .
Not feeling too clever this morning :(
Everyone have a good ride !!

You were missed! Hope you're feeling better.

That was fun. getting interigated by the rozzers (they were nice civil chaps) at the woolwich ferry.

My highlight had to be the port authority guy doing a proper race call over the pa of all us riders leaving the ferry, quality.
And bombing it to the bridge with Jon JJ and the guy on the yellow lo pro.

Cheers all

Sorry we missed you

Good ride, nice to meet old and new faces.
Thanks to Hillbilly for the tube. I owe you a pint.
I got four punctures. My back tyre went as I was heading home, so as I was heading to the train station the front one blew too. Must be out of sympathy. Lol
Fuck continental tyres!!!

Great ride, even if it was the slowest ride ever. Thanks Ma3k for organizing. See you all again soon.

Good Ride today.

Also glad to see a list has been started already, maybe add the type of tire involved to the list too?

Enjoyed my bagel at the end.

Thanks man. I wanted to come on the ride with ya'll but couldn't get to the start in time.

WTF is up with the punctures. Were you all riding on broken glass??

me = NoTools™

high tire pressure is the key and armadillos ;)

you said it.

me = Big tool

Fixed! :)

15mm dia, no less

hillbilly. 2 puncture.
lucky7 4 punctures
nosferatu just the 1(more then enough though :|)
BigSteev 3 punctures
veLLo 1 puncture
Crispin 2 punctures, one fixed
BlueQuinn 2 valves snapping. Fuck Continental tubes.

The pub after was great. The Thames path south of the river sucks. Every time you think you're about to make progress it turns out to be a dead end and you have to go back. And next time I'm doing this ride on my mountain bike.

Lasted the whole ride with no punctures, then got one on Mile End Road, 1 mile from home. So:

hillbilly: 2 puncture.
lucky7: 4 punctures
nosferatu: just the 1(more then enough though :|)
BigSteev: 3 punctures
veLLo: 1 puncture
Crispin: 2 punctures, one fixed
BlueQuinn: 2 valves snapping. Fuck Continental tubes.
Lebowski: 1 puncture (not sure it counts though)

high tire pressure is the key and armadillos ;)

what is the crack with people, there is a big fncking list of decent tyres to use, and people have to colour match or some shit.............which results in everyone having a shit ride?????
