still waiting for the pictures and the vedios , anyone?????????????????????????

still waiting for the pictures and the vedios , anyone?????????????????????????

where was *your *camera?

how is your stomach now . feeling bwtter?

I'm really glad to have been a part of it.

A great night out with quite a lot of nice cornering and sprinting between cars and obstacles.

Having many stops was also good for rest and chatting with so many good faces.

Thanks MA3K!

Is MR. NICE GUY the chap with the Specialized tattoo on his neck?

Jesus.... small world mate.
Do you know how the guy who got hit is doing?

Yeh he got up and walked off with the ambulance crew and he was talking

and @ murtle

he did deserve a smack it was unfortunate that he smacked his head, guy who did the smacking was called des bowe and appoligised many times through me to you guys who stoped him.

also did any one see his bike it was a custom buit italian steel tourer real nice

Is MR. NICE GUY the chap with the Specialized tattoo on his neck?

Yeah. ononelangster.

I wish I went now. FFS.

Max, you should probably have come and not sat indoors sulking. I'll fetch the time machine...

Amazing!

Probably shouldn't have done the thing on a loose headset but oh well. What time did people finnaly leave the C&H I heard people were going back to somewhere I'd actually heard of so I left pretty soon after finishing. The stops were great

Highlights
-The whole thing really
-Somebody putting a bike in the hands of the Nelson Mandela Statue
-When the ride felt like in was in the country side after putney
-looking back and seeing nothing but lights for miles!!
-Idiot dude in park thinking he was funny jumping and dancing in front of us to put us off and then getting tired after underestimating how many of us there were - and then immediately after everybody had to go single file through the alley way

hope that dude who hurt himself was ok

also a 24hour shop should maybe be included at the end. I would have paid more than usual for a beer

Ive been inspired to design a route called 'The Parks'

I'll fetch the time machine...

how is your stomach now . feeling bwtter?

Hello guys,

Was an interesting ride, well from where I started from. I was one of the two guys that joined on from a pub overlooking the Thames just past Putney. Me and my friend was excited by the ammount of Cyclist we saw all of a sudden.

Kindly enough someone shouted out to join in.

We both came from Islington, and we usually Cycle along the Thames through the forests if anyones been through there? It's a rather nice cycle, but you can't see your own hand so it's advised to bring a decent enough light.

We are both interested in joining you guys next time.

Take care.

Some ropey photos and a fun video...

ace - how'd you do that?

cut & paste link, innit

Whoops . . .too slow.

Outstanding night out - not planning to move today save to the stagger to achieve Bloody Marys.

Highlights - the approx £3Trillion worth of potential RLJ fines, indicating with a beer can on Waterloo bridge, party_paul's persistent inability to perform a skid.

I blame your bike. I think its those handpainted yellow wheels of yours.

Awesome night all around though. Thought millenium bridge was amazing as was booming along after wandsworth bridge. Off to tighten headset now which has rattled itself scarrily loose.
