No one gets left behind on the TNRC. Except at stations it would seem.
My apologies to Will for the groupsave fiasco that saw him miss the first train. After standing in the queue waiting for the people ahead of me to finish their protracted and delicate negotiations we only had 3 mins to get the train so I just thrust the tickets to the first people I saw and sprinted. Seems we had one more person than I'd bargained for.
Leaving veLLo at Welwyn station was also pretty inexcusable. Would have been worse to lose you on the ride but the backstop system usually deals with that.
So next time we will assign everyone into groups of 4 (for groupsave) as they arrive at the station, you will then hold hands with each other all the way on the train and at the stations right up until you are told to get on your bikes and ride. Or perhaps we can get a long piece of rope and tie everyone together for the whole duration, including the ride. Possibly an elastic chord to cater for mixed climbing abilities.
