I've kept out of this geary Vs ss/fixed debate, but after yesterday's ride I can see John's point, it really did seem quite different to the recent forum rides I've been on, more like those of a couple of years ago - and a very good thing too. People kept together better and there wasn't all this tearing along the down gradients! Okay, rant over.
John, cheers for leading another fun day in the saddle. I was humming and harring over whether to make it this year what with all the wet weather forecast, I'm so pleased I did.
My bullet points:—
• Cheers to Tom and Moth (sorry can't remember names) for the delicious flapjacks.
• Ed - your "aerodynamic experiment" was quite scary from behind - love the Mecca jibe (Alkali)
• Upstart - not peeved at shooting ban, peeved because I'd forgot my bazooka
• Alkali and Anna - nice to meet someone from my neck of the woods, next year we could ride to Hackney together
• Am going to check whether it's a Clacton or global ban from 'Spoons (any excuse for a pint)
• corrr, really enjoyed that warm shower last night!
• cheers to all for making it a good'un
