See you at the pub:

If I get my bike built I'll see you at the pub!

@skydancer - it'd be a pleasure :-)

@murtle - we need a couple of token youngsters on this equal ops ride so as not to be ageist, innit ;p

Setting off as soon as I can find my vari-focals. First round's on me, when/if we get there. See you all soon. Tally-ho!

:-D

mind you, half of you wouldn't be allowed out with out a carer anyways :)

have a beer for me.

See you at the pub,

I will have to see you all at the pub I'm afraid. Have a good roll.

Nearly finished my build, taping the bars and see you at the pub!

Good to see you all and to ride with you until your first feed station.

Happy Birthday Van Uden. Welcome to the ranks of the vets!

Sorry to miss you all today, I've been out enjoying the sun with my lovely lady... I owe you a pint, Joel, and hope you're having a very happy birthday, dude... :D

"Oat cakes for the win!"

:-)

Great afternoon. Hope you enjoy the rest of your birthday Joel.

I'm exhausted after the 7.22km ride but happy that we had a long relaxing day in the pub by the fire. They knew in the pub that oldies feel the cold more and tend to dehydrate quickly.

:)

Great chilled out afternoon. Hope you had a good 'un Joel.

THanks for the heads up Andy!

belated happy birthday!

Thanks everyone who made it, it was a gloriously memorable day for one who has a lack of memory to look forward to ;-)

'Twas nice to meet your mates, too. Splendid Sunday!

nice one joel, was a great little team time trial down from T square - nice to hook on to the back of Team Fuji (You, Dan & Michael). was a nice little session at the HC (good boozer that).

happy birthday mate and catch ya again soon.

jonny, do you want some bar tape?

jonny, do you want some bar tape?

what you trying to say? ;).

tbh i got plenty of spare bar tape at home just ain't got round to sorting those bars out proper. the little bit on there was the result of a rush job on the morning of the valentines tourney. and it suffices.

Great afternoon Joel - I was glad to be able to join you and everyone else to celebrate.

Christ, Corny's arse just filled my screen!

Senior Joel, sorry I didn't make it down, bleddy Mothering Sunday and kids.

It made me smile when I saw your bars, it looked like you ran out of bar tape and then ran out of electrical tape and then ran out of the shitty tape that comes with the bar tape :D

i'd leave it, only adds charm to the bike.
