Yep, red bike w. mudguards, heading down Titsey. I thought you looked quite serene gliding down, but was surprised to see another fixed rider! Apologies for not sticking it in the Spotted thread.
I, like you, came a cropper on Titsey a few years back, the indignity was soul-crushing and made me determined to master it. A few years on and l'm 'comfortable' with this cruel mistress. It's ok, just power up and over the first 'kick' and keep going. And going. And going. And sprint for the roundabout at the top. I know it's not healthy, but hell, what is these days?
Well that's your challenge for the summer set then eh?
