i was wondering which was quicker ride back v train, answer = both exactly the same.I do wonder whether I have ever gone at higher speed on a bike. Makes me think so. Any cycletraining threads about high speed tyre failure?

The train would've been faster if it hadn't left the station 10 minutes after you lot set off; and it had caught up by Hackney, so wins to Liverpool St anyway. You're kidding yourselves :p
High speed tyre failure? It's in the lap of the gods.

. looking foward to the return of tim forn the LA thread and jonny from the video store.
i live on the LA thread now Claus. I don't think I will be on anymore of these rides , i just don't think i'm going to find the time since I started defending his honour :p
really sad i missed this. was knee deep in essays about holistic learning and schemas. interesting to read about, boring to write about

Gaaad,I feel like a newb to ask, but: which LA thread?
-
• #1839
Lance Armstrong, love him or hate him. don't make me find the link. has been seem brilliant banter on it. which i have been involved with in person this evening with shinscar and plum. neither of whom, quite rightly, could give a shit.
claus, i am being good. and am going to wait until this sunday before gently reintroducing myself to the saddle. that will be 2.5 weeks since shit zero for me.
riding bikes is simply the best thing. i will try to never again take it for granted.

i am not allowed? :)
Ride in, ride out; Ecstasy indeed. Mario made it to hospital OK. To ride beyond Scarlett and Gustav going side by side was a moment to behold; they both move their bike so well. Thanks Texas for the flight home. Shoots crossing our pack on some main junction in Hackney. Pinky please no more bottles flying at 50km/h.
