England : Cheshire Manchester 100 Cycle Chat Team Outing - 02/09/2012 - Sub six hours ride time

[I like Skol]

I finished smashing up the garage slab the day after riding 125 miles then did my commute of 10 miles each way last night. Av spd 17.6 on the way in which dropped to 17.4 by the time I had returned home so I am a reasonably happy (but beaten and sore) bunny.

I have been resting since Sunday, might have a gentle spin on the turbo tonight just to get the legs moving but but tomorrow night will be riding about 50 mile, training ride with the club (35 miles of hard effort plus getting to and from the meeting point)!

Just spotted Fossyant 50 pics past mine so based on 1 rider per second going past the camera, that means you must have passed me a cpl of minutes or so after the photos were taken

Hee hee, who's the Aldi fanboy on his right?

 

[potsy]

Recognise this face too

Hmm, I look too happy!

That's the expression for "glad I made it up that hill!"

Why couldn't he take photographs at the bottom of Swanlow Lane instead, where we were all doing in excess of 30mph

Never understand why he sits at the top of that short hill , everyone is just getting over it and thinking thank god for that , when flash bang , what a picture gets you

Aha just found me:

BTW, I can tell from the photos it was you lot I tagged onto for a bit, from somewhere after Wilmslow to somewhere before Mobberly where I stopped to look at the map. Thanks for the tow!

Video here:



I was scalped loads of times but due to technical difficulties that footage won't work. And I swear I was only admiring the two ladies....bikes....at the end.

Which camera are you using peowpeow? Recommend it or would you buy something else next time?

 

[Peowpeowpeowlasers]

A Gopro and yes I'd buy another.
