Tuesday Night Ride Club (TNRC)

do the pilates i found it a great help, just don't over extend yourself , it feels easy but can really be bad if you go too advanced too soon. i used to see a cranio sacral (spell check that) osteopath and it worked.

will be doing one on one sessions to start with so i can get my technique down, then slamm the reps to the max, or something...

hellz yeah

christ mate you've wasted away since last season. bet you can only post 15mph avgs now. tis sad

I'm down to 11mph... :s

sorry. can't talk to you then

That's the speed you do frts*.

*going back a bit<…**

**inverse ellipsis

I'm in. Had a mountaintastic day in italy today, I have EPIC tan lines. Italian bike is happy, though has been asking for a more qualified rider...

sounds great^

I hope you 'enjoyed' the daylight experience, Colin.

Did you go down the road from St Mary Cray to Eynsford? If so, how is the gravel now? Planning to do a bit of both Kent routes tomorrow you see.

I took that photo on the Castle Ride 100 last Sunday which was a totally different route but I did ride out to Eynsford Last Thursday. I included the section of road from Farningham to Eynsford which has now had the gravel rolled in. It's still a bit skittish but much, much better than the previous 'experience'. I felt a whole lot happier on it compared to the TNRC outing.

Out, trip to Ikea I have an interview first thing Wednesday, don't want to turn up looking like I've had 3 hours kip.

Nice route this one, hopefully it will be done again before the TNRC season is over.

good luck with the interview sam. others, please note, that is the only kind of bona fide excuse for withdrawal.

Anybody riding out would like to meet somewhere between the Arsenal and Lea Bridge Road at 19h?

I'd like to have a got at this one. I reckon I cocked up my first proper forum ride, due to a little over-enthusiasm. Every day is a school day.

Early warning on possible excuse:

I may be out, so that I can spend more time with my family.

.

Ohhh, playing the family card, very nice. Can't argue with that.

How can I use my knee excuse now?

Cheers Jonny.

Matt, he's pulling in, not out!

Oops.

possible excuse:

IoW weekend > too much sun on my baldy skull > now dazed and confused > tomorrow will see.
