Awesome ride. Good pace, good folk, no punctures, not getting lost too much.

Cheers Graham, and everyone who helped with the route - Jonny, Dicki, Festus and probably others.

Happily knackered now.

Yeah, great ride, really good turnout but a few too many gooners for my liking !

Good choice of route Graham, especially throwing in the O's, every Londoner's 2nd team !

Awsome ride! im fucked now though..was great meeting all you guys! see ya on the bridges ride..

anyone got the whole lot of pics to send to my email? its smacznykonsek@wp.pl
iam not on any pic from above, I dropped off earlier
I'll appreciate!
great ride! shame i couldnt stay for the whole lot.
Big thanks to Leigh for the shirt! :D

To all who turned up - ace!

Those that didn't - weapons!

Really good day out I thought.....numbers were spot on actually(22/23/24?) so not too hectic. Good to see the familiar faces and as always, new ones. Saw some parts of London I'd never been to or had any desire to go to(ever again in fact)
Nice to get The 'Os' in there too, been to every ground except Orient
Nice pace from start to finish with little congestion, finished off with a near empty pub, TdF final stage and a good few drinks!

Well played to every one turning up and I hope you all enjoyed the day :-)

Pics to follow..........

....the security guard at Chelsea was a tit! "Terrorist threat", "Emergency, emergency"!

Awsome ride! im fucked now though..was great meeting all you guys! see ya on the bridges ride..

Was it you we picked up en route to Chelsea? Sorry - didn't get (or remember) names of everyone.

That was my favourite bit... "Turn round and join us" - "OK". Still there 40 miles and 6 grounds later. Good job.

Fair play Rob :-)

haha, yeah that was me, was fucking wicked, well up for some more....Cheers guys

Another cracking forum ride.

Cheers Graham.

On reflection of the destinations; Chealsea what a cunt part of town with security to match and White Hart Lane waht a spunk hole.

Great ride. Well done Graham. Great to see everyone and to meet some new people.

I thought that the security guard did a fine job and told him so. Not his fault if he sees a sea of scousers, Mancs, Marshmen, Arses (and worse from Tottenham) and considers them a threat. I would.

didnt get any reply to messages and waited at millwall.

had guinness at bar story instead.

Great ride lads and fair play to Dicki for the Ferry refreshments.

The security guard at chelsea was a wolly, but he had the best stadium in London to protect, in comparison the the others Stamford Bridge is the Ritz (ok maybe the Emerates (named after the f*cking sponser) is an alright stadium too.

I'm on holiday for the next bridges ride but will try to get a few TNRC's in soon.

Mash.

Thanks to everyone for making it a great ride. Got some good shots on the way, should have them up by tomorrow lunch. A nice one of Andy "chatting" to the Chelsea gard, and one of Graham showing his feelings towards the Chelsea team. Top form.

Good ride, good Weather, good company, good drinks at the end and a ride on a ferry. Happy.

Have some lousy pics...

Excellent bike parking pic in the Bailey!

A really nice urban ride with a lot of old and new faces. I loved the suburban. Hope it will happen again soon!

A big thanks to Pistanator for being also a such nice man.

AHH! shame no spoke cards ...you should have asked for a volunteer....well next time!
