• ^^ - Oliver - it's always been a pleasure riding with you. last year on the roydon ride it just happens to be the one where people liked to sprint finish the last 8 miles and stretch the peleton out. let's hope your elbow gets sorted soon and we can do some long ones.

    Cheers, Tim. I remember that we were in danger of not getting to the pub on time/missing the train owing to all the punctures! (It woz them werewolves wot did it.)

    I did 50k yesterday (in three parts) and the elbow held up OK--just had to stop up one hill as I couldn't pull on the bars hard enough. Absolutely shocking form initially owing to having done nothing for weeks, too, but it started to feel good towards the end. Feeling optimistic now.

    you heard anything about the chelmsford 100 this year?
    Hm, not yet, no. Not sure they've had time to spend on it--CCH keep winning things left, right and centre this year (http://cyclingclubhackney.blogspot.com/2010/04/cch-123-clean-sweep-hog-hill-bill-theme.html, http://cyclingclubhackney.blogspot.com/2010/04/mean-while-back-at-ranch1-2-number-two.html, etc.), but I haven't heard about the 'Round Chelmsford'. It's getting a bit late for it now. I really love that route, perhaps I should make it my club duty to organise it in future years. I'll e-mail Keir to ask.
