Nocturnal About Turnal

gonzocyclo ftw!

I did a gonzo essay for a health professions student competition, but they just didn't get it. It was my intention to try a gonzoesque approach to my next big fiction project, but, er, I haven't really got around to that yet...

Didn't we pass through this area on the way to the Catford Hill-climb? I remember a totally vicious descent that I nearly walked, but I can't quite remember where it was, only that it looks as if it might have been somewhere along that same ridge.

Like Brett said.

That road through West Wickham/Eden Park/Elmers End is really good

I like it cos it seems flat, although it's probably more like a 1% downhill. Only dropped below 25mph on the rdbts last night - mudguards and 25s FTW :O

nice post - inspiring stuff, especially for other riders (like me) whose parental responsibilities make it hard to find time to put in the miles. time to get some decent lighting sorted.

I'm hoping it's how I'll get my steady/recovery miles done, and there's definitely a growing number of road cyclists getting out there in the dark, thanks to LED technology progressing so rapidly. Now I just have to make sure that I don't disturb Mrs Fix too much when I stagger in and raid the kitchen :D

BTW - I'd like to do the full version of this ride at some point with a small group. From mid-June, I won't be working evenings for a bit, so could leave earlier; or there's always the slightly later slot like I did last night. I'll post up next time I'm intending to do it.
