I'm very proud of the club, it's riders and the fact that we all had a great day out in the sunshine.
I'm not calling you a liar but questioning your ability make reasonable judgement on riding ability...so no, I won't have to take your word for it.
If you are concerned about people passing closely then maybe you should learn more road-craft before venting spleen from an ill-informed platform.
Thank you for your apologies which I will relay to the club. -
An update:
I wrote to the chair of the cycling club whose members were* all riding like choppers* and last night got an apology and a promise that club members will be spoken to. In yer face, choppers!The President of the cycling club in question raised your concerns at a committee meeting this week.As a member of the club and a rider who was present at the time I am frankly surprised by your attitude.
The small group of riders were experienced club riders, many of whom race in various disciplines.
'On your right' is a courteous method of letting a rider about to be passed of the presence of an overtaking rider. It isn't illegal to overtake cars.I believe it is possible that I have slightly more cycling experience than you and should there have been any poor riding in the group I would personally have addressed the matter.
Maybe you would like to share the cycling credentials you possess to issue acidic and critical correspondence to club riders enjoying a day out.....and then gloat about the fact?

TT is listed as 555 but I think that is generous by 2. It should be perfect for 5'9'' - 5'11'' .....if you have normal geometry ;-)
-
That might have been me. Riding geared Cross Check with brown handlebar tape.
That sounds about right. I said something helpful like 'That's not fixed!' as I saw your LFGSS cap and gears. I was wearing something that resembles an Italian national champs jersey. If that was you then nice to meet you!
-
The EM is very pretty but I don't have time so still available!
-
I rode to this, rode it and then rode back. 276km :-)
I saw strong lad on the course with LFGSS cap and swept back moustache bars, who was that?? -
Fancy swapping for an Eddy Merkcx in Brain....about same size....what is the TT on yours?.....mine is in metallic pink.....is the BB italian or English thread?
Cash prefered. (PM me pics just in case ;-)
I think English but will check as I haven't built it up since owning it! -
Still available: £300 collected
-
Will not post as has to be seen in the flesh to truly appreciate..
-
Hi Steve, I'm happy that the price reflects good value for what you're getting.
Cheers,
Eddy -
Great looking bike, nice manufacturer, good price! GLWS
-
They are hyperglide fitting.
-
Buckaroo, no not from BR. It has literally been gathering dust in a warm house for a few years. You will not be disappointed. (I have thought about just hanging it on the wall!)

Like one of these?I have one......never used it :-)
-
Thanks Skully. I actually bought it because I loved the way the straight forks looked. Then I bought the Cosmics on my other FS thread...and a pair of CD deltas.....................................and then left the whole lot to mature in a centrally heated house for a few years :-(
So many bikes projects so little time... -
Retro, aero, gorgeous and only £250!
-
Lots of shiny chrome for £350!
-
Forgot to mention, these are clincher and Shimano variety....
-
I have a pair of Mavic Cosmics for sale. £250
They have seen very light use ~200 miles, are perfectly true, no brake surface wear.
Complete with skewers, rim tape and original guarantee card/manual.
Put these on my Look KG233!
-
I am selling this Look KG 233 54cm in Brain tubing as it's too pretty to spend it's life in a box whilst I dream about finding time to build it up.
I bought it a few years ago and it had been built up and ridden 20 miles. Since then it has been stored indoors and the condition is unchanged. It is immaculate, though I hesitate to describe as NOS due to the 20miles!
It comes with campag. Mirage H/S and BB included.
I have the original (Unsigned) guarantee card and manual that also list the geometry:
Braze on cable guides, front mech hanger and PERFECT chrome.
130 oln.This really needs to see the sunshine. £300 ++ Buy the perfect wheels here!
Cheers,
Eddy

FWIW I was riding a steel Rourke, geared, as I rode 80km to the start. I also had the 80km to ride back after so wasn't in a hurry. Whether a rider rides a lot or not is of no concern but being able to ride in close proximity to others is. The fact that Hat felt unsafe might be addressed by learning more but she clearly feels that she is sufficiently adept to not require this.
