Thursday Night - Hour of Power

likewise, had seen you doing laps of RP a few times previously. really good form from you, just stick on a lower ratio, it will improve your souplesse

I'm sure I told him to gear down already :)

Ok, who's in for tomorrow night?

Don't have a bike with a brake built so will likely go ride around hampstead instead.

Forecast is heavy rain. If the outlooks changes I'm in, otherwise I'll go gym instead.

Its my office 'summer' party tomorrow - and for double irony points its in 'regents park'.. So I won't be riding, but might come and cheer those heros are with a beer in hand!

Next week i'll be there rain or shine.

My exhibition private view tonight, I'm out.

Someone bump the excuses list. Mine for today is I'm stuck in France trying to dry out my sidis

^^Private exhibition you say?

Weather is looking good, so I'm in. Anyone else coming? As it stands I'm just going to start my laps without going to the gates.

Fixed, 48x17.

48x19

My drive chain is in serious need of replacement as it slips every time I put the power down. Need to change it all at the weekend.
So I'm out until next week

HOP, Thursday 23rd May 2013

Meet at 1830hrs at the gate opposite York Bridge for an 1845 start.

20mph+ average, but if you can't hold on there'll no doubt be other wheels to follow. Stop after 8 laps.

This is on public roads so please ride accordingly (and make sure what you're riding is suitable).

Signal your moves and stops.

^ I might be a bit late though as I'm still at work :s

I'll be geared in Grupetto kit.

Cool, I'll be wearing yellow KAS jersey on Ti fixed gear bike, doing interval training like a boss. See you round there

Not to be confused with DJ also on a Ti fixed, I presume?

I have much less facial hair.

I didn't see any of you guys out there.

Anyways, was a great day for laps, hardly any wind and very empty. I did 7.9 laps +1 warm up. Had epic cramp on the final lap finishing sprint. It hurts like a bitch.

21.0mph average solo. Rather enjoyed doing it fixed.

I was an hour late. I was really slow. I did just shy of two laps. No idea why, but no power or energy today :(
Glad you had fun Hovis! We'll meet one of these days!

Saw JD, he was putting in a strong effort on his own.

I had picked up a few waifs and strays and was dragging them around.

This evening I saw sunlight, black skies, rain and hail it was like the four seasons.

JD, were you on a bianchi road bike by any chance?

Anyone out tonight?

Nope!

R.I.P. HoP

I'll be there. Black Trek with gears going anti from 18.30ish.
