CYCLOGS

[Keith Oates]

Well done Garz

I have persuaded my husband to start logging on Cyclogs now he has his new bike. He's entered the rides he's done since he bought it (3rd December) and his name is U_James (short for Uncle James) but he's logging for the YACF team as he does more social rides with them than CycleChatters. They need the help, certainly!

I can see a Liverpool / Everton family split in the offing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great to see so many targets being reached before the all tricky Christmas season really kicks in. I've still got 203 miles to go. If I really stretch it, 160 of them can be commuting, so I need another 40 odd. No riding after the 23rd of the month either...

A couple of weeks ago when i passed 11k someone at work asked if i could reach 12k. I foolishly said "of course i can" . I've got it down to 36 and a bit miles a day required to get there by the 31st.
Just seen the weather and it looks like snow over the next few days so i may be wishing i'd kept quiet

 

[arallsopp]

I hear you redflight. Its absolutely freezing out there at the mo. Came back late last night (21.8 miles, arriving 11pm) and had only just warmed my feet up before heading back into the ice for this morning's commute.

There was a broken drain on Crystal Palace hill, and the water had frozen along the kerb. Not good.

Up here in the frozen north of hertfordshire the snow's settling. Not looking good for tonights ride home.

Just having a flurry here on the banks of the Thames in Greenwich. But no cycling for me today.

 

[arallsopp]

Good flurry just West of you in Chiswick. Looks to be settling on roofs around us. Can't see across the river for little bits of white in the air.

 

[Bman]

You lot put me to shame!

I'll be suprised if I manage to clock just 800 miles on my new bike before the new year!

 

[Baggy]

No snow in Devon, just a light drizzle after a frosty start. Have about 250 miles to do before the 31st to meet my target for 2009...

 

[GrasB]

I had rain, hail, sleet & snow... also I completely miss-dressed for the weather that I ended up riding in at the 30 mile mark & aborted the ride. It's just cold drizzly rain now, still a less than 25 miles/day for me to hit this months target

 

[Auntie Helen]

Nice snow Just been out for a 22 mile ride in the lovely fluffy stuff It's the one time of year when I might be faster than other cyclists, y'see, and I'm certainly braver in the icy corners...

 

[arallsopp]

Just a teeny bit jealous of your third wheel now AH.

 

[Auntie Helen]

Uncle James is selling his trike shortly... there's still a chance to get a hold of that third wheel yourself

Excellent. I'd assumed he was selling it complete, so never thought to make an offer. I'll take the front right one please. £25 do it?

 

[Auntie Helen]

No, that's underpriced considering it's running some nice tyres and it has drum brakes and everything. You'll have to come up with some more dosh.

It's possible he'll throw in the entire rest of the trike if the figure is good enough!
