2013-06-15 - Gears for Fears Road Ride Slide to Bristol (100 miles)

Yeah, I'll be heading back with ya, as long as you buy some beers for the train :)

Beer and pizza on me, if we can find a decent one...

What's the deal with train times / prices for both legs? A bit broke at the moment.

£61 groupsave for 4 = £15.25 each.

Are people taking back packs?

Back pack, 115 mile ride, bad idea if you value your lower back.

And the train to woking? #stilllazy

Dunno, I looked it up last night, too busy dealing with journalists at the moment to look at NRES, get Laner to do it :P

To Woking it's 20.80 quid for a group save four = only a fiver!

Out!

Afraid I'm out too, sigh

Mike, what about the whole "train to bristol and ride back" think? it's pretty breezy out there at the moment

I dunno, 17mph headwind all the way, stick Laner on the front and learn to ride in a tight group.

I have a build that works well with a tail wind...

(that's me, not the bike)

Proper group riding, taking turns >>> headwind

I know I'm not as good a wind block as braker, but I'll be on the front most of the time, so don't worry people!

laner, will you also be protecting us from rain showers?

I'll give it a go

whatok are you back in or what?

forecast is sunny with cloudy spells...

Nah I'm just watching

if my wheels don't arrive I'm not coming

#sulkyface

if it's 50mph winds like today I'm not coming.

The wind is looking pretty stupid

The then spybot and myself had similar conditions when we turned around at Dunwich for the return leg.

I dont know why I bothered cycling home today I should have just pushed my bike
