CYCLOGS

[ChrisKH]

I doubt this is going to be the month, I'm afraid Domino, as I'm going on a cycle tour in a fortnight.

I did 14 miles today in that horrendous wind and my legs are really tired. Hopefully I will be back on form tomorrow, though, for the group ride I'm doing. It's embarrassing if I keep getting dropped by 16 people, including a couple on a tandem...

No problem uphill I have found........B)

Good luck to all on your 50 miler tomorrow. AH informed me of this, so look forward to a full report with action photo's, (at the bar, post ride of course).

I'll definately have to get to one of these rides in the near future.

Well my miles will have to take a break as can't ride tomorrow, pity as was meant to be doing another 60-80 miler but legs tonight asked for a break

Actually today's ride is with a different cycling forum (shock horror, YACF!) although there seems to be much mixing-and-matching between the forums on group rides.

Tomorrow I'm doing a 50-miler charity ride with FatFellaFromFelixstowe and Stevevw of this parish, amongst others (although those chaps are doing the 100 miles; think they're bearing me company for the first 12 miles though, then zooming off into the distance...)

It's always good fun riding with the CycleChatters and others; we will drag you along to one ride in due course... just stay away from Aperitif, Arallsopp and ilovebikes as they make you do horrible mileages (230 or more in a day!)

I've started nibbling away at the miles again - going to do another 10-20 today to see how my knees respond. Impossible to keep fitness up like this though Heal knees dammit, heal! I think two weeks of nibbling miles, then I may be able to get back into training and munch away at them miles.

Sittingduck....
67 miles in one day... on Luther I bet..?.
you, you, you sauce pot you..

Look at my ride today then

I have a 50 miler charity ride tomorrow (see signature). Then the bike is going in for a much-needed service on Monday. It was very creaky today and the chain is rather stretched...

 

[Sittingduck]

Yup, new records for mileage, climbing, max speed and size of group all busted during the early hours of this day!

Although the next time somebody suggests climbing Ditchling Beacon (as it's not that bad) I shall simply ignore them and order a cab to the top

I have just seen McBludgeon entered a ride of 166 miles on Cyclogs He has certainly bitten the bug Well done that man

 

[Sittingduck]

Indeed - he powered away from me easily on the big hill... I was bringing up the rear with the other porkers and some ladies

The train option back home was taken by me in a flash but respect to those nutters enthusiasts that cycled back!

Well done for your new pb, I see you enjoyed Ditchling . Should be on for my PB tommorow as doing the suffolk sunrise 100 with others on here and with the cycle to and from the start should be on for about 115 miles.

 

[Sittingduck]

Good luck FFFF! The sunrise sounds like fun (not hilly)
