+1 and loads of fun shooting back home, that was fast!!!!!

thanks...great time.

My first bridges ride, fantastic night! Thanks to all those who organised it. Great to meet so many new faces.

Great ride rolling back from Hammersmith everyone. Thanks to Hippy, I think, for leading the charge back from the A4 to Kew.

+1 thanks to organisers.

big smiles, that was great. big love to everyone.

I will forever remember Big African Sunset swooping round Parliament Square and launching himself directly at the back window of a black cab before deftly leaping off the bike onto his head. Bright Times indeed.

Bit stoppy / starty for the first 6 bridges, but the ride through the common was great. Cheers John for the organising.

What a ride!, good weather, good people, good times!

really good fun! amazing turn out also! thanks to anyone who had anything to do with its organisation!!

also the cycle back to east was great, real fast!

I landed on my feet, snowy, you cnnt! :)
Saweet sweet night peeps.

Oh christ I ache so much now. Even my Elbows hurt. What the hell's that about?
That was great though. Loved it, even though I did Kensington to Bethnal Green at no more than 12mph due to my protesting muscles.

Great night out folks. Good to see everyone, and a huge turnout right up to the end.

Highlights: Millenium Bridge, Trafalgar Sq, and racing up Castlenau to Hammersmith Bridge.
Nice quick ride home too.

Props to the organisers. Super fun times!

I got stopped by a wiggum for RLJing in bloody fucken new cross gate!

Just back in Uxbridge there, first proper group ride, that was absolutely fantastic, can't wait for the next one =D

thanks Ma3k.
great ride...
and an epic pace back Easties.
Rocksteady... wha 'appen?

Just got in with my neighbour in Hackney Wick, needed 3 bagels at Brick Lane to get home.

Awesome people, great ride and a lot of good memories! The ride back East was fantastic too!!

bright times indeed - lovely rolling with such a large crew and getting to chat with a few peeps I haven't sen in a while

nice one for organising again Jonny Mack and thanks James for the bastard strong espresso that fuelled my ride home

peace.

Wicked ride guys. : )
Props to Ma3k for sorting it.

good ride. Always enjoy this one. lost you guys on the way back so I took it easy.
cheers MA3K

just back in forest hill after a chill and food stop in trafalgar..

great night , look forward to the next!

Great ride, guys.

Thanks John for organising

Thanks Kieron (sp) for the company on the way back SE.

Slatanic - hope you're not too badly hurt.

See you on the next one...

got back a few minutes ago after bagels and chats in the East.

awesome night, brilliant ride. roll back was fast and almost as much fun as the ride itself.

Millenium Bridge bike lights was beautiful.

thanks John, it was one to remember.

Memorable ride, folks. Milennium bridge and hammering through Barnes to Hammersmith bridge were highlights. Look forward to more pictures from Trafalger Sq.. Chris is right about the stop/start nature in the earlier part, but with a record tunout of 120+ near unavoidable if we're going to stick to our principle of not dropping folks.

Ved, I love the l.e.d.s. Henry and Dale to go head to head in the bike beauty competition.

Casualty toll: Mr Hoops, James and especially Slaytanic, hope there's no lasting damage.

Who heard Vicky riding her setup with the rolling resistance of an old push-mower,and all the sound effects to boot! Prize-winning my girl!

Thanks again John Ma3K
