2013-04-13 - HHSB & Steel is Real ride to Brighton (9:30am Clapham South)

This cunt ran OK123 off the road.

I may have had the best shower ever when I got home. So good right now.

Dakin, I hope you're OK. Spotter and OK123 waited at the top of Ditchling after the flat bit too.

Now inhaling pizza and red wine.

^^^What you on about, Ditchling was fun! :)

This was my first proper ride ever and I had a great time, even riding in the wet was fun, standing around wasn't lol.

You were strong man, I knew you didn't need to worry about keeping up.

What other ride could you go from lovely sun to torrential rain and wind. loved it!
Great ride and great people, chapeau all.

Thanks, I've gotten a bit quicker.

You looked 100% badass for the whole thing though mate, mega lopro wearing shades and jeans.

Fun bike btw!

Second the above, was really nice to put names to faces. From Ditchling to the end was seriously grim though.... :(

Look forward to the next one, hopefully with nicer weather.

I feel so bad about what happened to Dakin, hope you're ok fam.

Till next time, and joss, HealTFU!

This and this x1000.

Thanks to everyone for a great day, despite the weather, especially spotter and se1derful for helping me out and waiting for me after ditchling. And to seven for the flapjack!

That was good. Really cold and really wet but really fucking good.

Theo, looking forward to seeing all those photos!

I'll get the pics up tomorrow but here's one for now:

Thanks, it's nice to know that I'm not as slow as i thought I was.

good effort lads!

yeah seriously good ride despite the weather... put some fast bits in but that wind really pushed me to limits.

I hope ripping the fence off won't come back to haunt whoever did it...

You never know, they might take the bad luck baton from me.

Impressive stuff chaps. Well done for braving the elements today!

Heal up soon Dakin.

Holy shit that was a hard ride. Note to self, Turners may be doable on 53:19 but Ditchling...not so much.

ankle feels quite stiff after that... oh well, moar HTFU needed...

So who made it up ditchling?
