take this 'recovery' thing to the next level. eat cake and drink beer this arvo!!!

just got back from RP. did two laps. what a difference a crash makes. i was so slow goin down, at turns, along cambers and ruts, steering felt twitchy, front wheel felt light. anyway good to be out again.

You'll get the 'fearless' back.. well at least til it's icy again :)

Nice ride guys, can feel it in the legs now. Be good to get a bigger crowd next week too.

Blurg.. can't be bothered now..

You gone out yet wayne?

go on hippy, there is nice sunshine out there!

Yeah I know. I will but I'm enjoying my slacking..

I just had to go up the road.

it's sunny, but windy. and there's cunts everywhere

Yeah, it's perfect riding weather.

Good to see you illy and lpg, and nice to meet you mikec. I had to outrun a police car on the way back. Went through a red, mainly to get some distance between me and some twats that had been cutting me up along Hackney Rd. Not dangerous, no pedestrians, traffic stopped in all directions.

F*cking pigs obviously had nothing better to do than pull out of their lane, U-turn, and try to catch up with me before a long line of stationary traffic... and then car unfriendly rat runs :)

Livin' on the edge bmmf..

i had an awesome ride this morning. the weather is perfect.

Hippy you riding RP on Sunday or are you going on a club run?

RP most likely as I'm only doing 60k. I reckon I'll head out soon for RP today..

Nice work BMMF. I take it you got away?

Nice to meet you today BMMF, lpg and illy. Great ride. My legs are starting to feel a little lead like now. Perfect weather for cycling. Lets hope its as nice as this next saturday. I shall talk my wife into taking kitty to the vet and join you. Are there any rides tomorrow?

illy Nice work BMMF. I take it you got away?

They've got wi-fi down the nick these days. You can opt for a phone call, email, or internet forum post.

Wayne: Mrs Crimble says Hi! :)

Wayne: your Mum says hi too, I gave her a cake for you too this time!

i thought she'd put a bit of weight on recently

did you early birds have a good ride?

I got there about 1130 for a few laps, really nice weather. down to short sleeves by the first lap.

but really, people need to leave the cars at home on sundays

I've got tan lines! A fscking tan! In England! In Feb!

(mind you I couldn't move my arms for the first lap - combo of Powerball and frost)

most of the serious cyclists had gone by the time I got there..

the sun was out, there weren't many cyclists there (compared to what I thought it might be like) and my bike has stopped making the squeaking noise it was making on friday and I only had to swear at about five drivers.
recovery meal is two rounds of bacon, cheese and tomato sarnies and two glasses of malbec.

so all is right with the world.

I've been looking at the weather forecast for Fri night/Sat morning, and also the patch of scar tissue on my right hip, and I'm starting to get cold feet about the planned ride for this Saturday.

Will have to see how the forecast develops over the next 24hrs...

i'm going to kent again. it's going to be frosty, but should be ok.

That's what I was thinking just before I heard fatboyralph's clavicle snap :S

keep me posted BMMF. am up for tomorrow morning, taking it slow on downhills if still a bit icy. am trying to be good and using the fact there is riding to be done as a way of keeping me away from the trixie chix thing tonight. i have very little will power you see.

am up for gloucester gate at 0900. but no pressure dude. i got no recent scars itching at me.
