Top Ride
Well Organised MA3K
And a Houge Turnout.
Had to Bail at the Boozer (Gutted) had to get home to collect Kids.

LittleHeather hope the knee heals up soon.

That was a great ride. Would've preferred it without the rain though!

To the very kind gentleman who lent me his 15ml wrench, I couldn't find you at the pub, so please get in touch so I can return it!

PMd. Thanks |³|MA3K great ride. Lots of new places for me

Sorry you missed it love! You missed me making a complete fool of myself ;)

Hey LH. Falling off one's bike is allowed on a group ride :-). Sorry about the knee though.

Got to make the next ride though. Just need to find a way to delicately tell my friend I HAVE to get back to London by 7pm that evening.

really great ride, the guy at the pub was a bit of an arse, but thats life.
really good to meet some people and cheers to ma3k for organising the whole thing.
was it just me or did we lose a whole load of people after the ferry?

Good ride, the random sand made it interesting! Had to bail at pub, needed to get back to see my newborn son.

A good ride with lovely weather at the start that sadly went downhill towards the end. Nice to finally meet a bunch of you in real life (Corny I'll probably see you at Blackstar!) A shout out to Jeremy who i rode pretty much the entire ride with.

@little heather, I hope you heal up, I saw you on the floor and wondered what happened!? For a ride that was going at a snails pace there seemed to be quite a few crashes!

congrats buckaroo - you should have bought him along, we could have done a bike christening, put a bit of bike grease on his forehead?

nice to meet many of you

and big up mr tibbs for my hot muffin!

Such a fantastic ride! I'm glad I made that last minute decision to hop on board :) Lovely to meet everyone, and a ^5 to the first-time forum riders I've met! Now for a hot shower...brrrr...

Good to see so many of you before your ride. Sorry i couldnt join you.

You all rock!

Great ride, thanks to all involved in making it run smoothly!

Few pics from before the rain below:

nice pictures. any more?

Wish I'd mate it, but was good to meet some of you before the ride.

nice pictures. any more?

unfortunately not, a couple of others but they came out pretty crap!

i took a few, but they are on 35mm so your gonna have to wait for them.

Great ride and lovely company - thanks to MA3K for organising and marshalling along brilliantly.

For me it started in sunshine and finished in sunshine - I imagine quite a few of you are still in the pub - another magic day!

Good ride despite the drizzle and cold,I blame south london, nice when we were north of the river ; ) interesting terrain riding, sand, mud, cobbles and well earned pint at the end. Cheers to John for organising it all. Day now ruined by the usual shite from the Arsenal..

Great ride, had to shoot off to see the mighty Blues crush Arsenal like flies YESSSSS!!!

that was a fun ride! good to meet some of you guys finally, sorry was a bit anitsocial, big ups louis (triangle)! good to meet you dude.
fun riding in the rain, sorry to bail on josh and jamie in grenwich but the pub nearer home was calling! hello to the bianchi pista and langster steel who locked up to me at the final pub!

Sounds cool, glad it went well enough.

I reckon John Mak should do guided rides for a living...

ps, josh your crash as pictured above was epic!

Who's that girl on the floor with the green bike? (4th photo down)

Great day - thanks a lot to MA3K and also to the guys who stayed to make sure us tail enders didn't get lost. Had a bit of a stack myself - won't be shaving until the chin mends...

Who's that girl on the floor with the green bike? (4th photo down)

some girl who tried to wheelie and obviously doesnt know how to!

Hah! Awesome picture :)

Good times, thanks for leading the way John!
