2013-06-01 - 11AM - Ride West

Chip shop or chinese curry sauce?

Chip shop. It was pretty special. In a good way.

Great day guys and gals, nice to meet all the people I haven't met before and to see people I already know :)

Yes a great day - thanks everyone!

we saw two helicopters take off AND we saw a windmill

I'm sure neither of those things were actually on the ride West :P

Awesome ride!
So happy I rode my all city for this.

A pic from Theo.

Can't believe how many people showed up on fixed freestyle bikes.

PICTURES ON FLICKR (not very good)

Rad, looked like a great day!

Hey hey it's the Monkees.... ;)

One of the best rides i've been on, so much fun cheers john and kris!

What a great ride for such short notice.

On par with Ride East, def will run again in the middle of summer.

John you're alive! Thanks for organising, you were hilarious!

Please do repeat, John, looks like a good one. I was, as predicted, hungover. But I'll see you today for the nod-a-thon.

shame i missed this! looked cool..

Awesome ride. Thank you. The canal crossing the freeway blew my little mind. Nice to see you ride past me in Brixton later in the day too!

^ that was my favorite bit too ~ thanks for a great ride !

Good to meet you all - I've had a samosa craving since that stretch of canal early on. Thanks for organising.

That canal had some awesome food smells!

I love John's casual rides, always great fun, have rep for organising it mate.

Are your rides fixed friendly?

I'm not back on gears till winter*)

Scotch Egg, I think most people were fixed.
