Sunday was fantastic. Nice to meet you all and serious amounts of chapeau to everyone involved, runners, riders, runner/riders, cake providers....
I'm trying to think of possible tomfoolery involving London and Oxford, and possibly pubs, I'm sure we'll be able to come up with something.
FOB, do you have a copy of the Oxford Mail?
Put me down for the Indian club ride, it sounds like a great idea. I'm looking forward to seeing how we are going to incorporate an elephant into a bike ride.
-
Yes I have, its already framed and hanging in pride of place over the mantlepiece.
-
I've a copy of the Oxford Mail with Bernie and Hats on the cover and pics of everyone else inside. If any of the London 'Runners and Riders' would like the copy for the (virtual) clubhouse wall or to pass onto the grandchildern let me know.
I missed out on the discussion of some sort of London / Oxford rematch, but think it's a great idea.

If you could ping an electronic copy over, that would be superb.
PM sent with e mail address. If anyone else wants a copy, just send me a PM with e mail address, and I will forward on.

come on guys, I'm sure there are some more pics out there!
Ian, some brilliant shots from the official race photographer.
The ones of me and Hats, running like the wind to beat the chicken, are off the scale.

There are, of course, more photos... but these are to be used for blackmail at a later date. You all know which photos I'm talking about.
