What a great day for a ride. I couldn't believe how warm it was.
is an understatement.
This week was my turn to be the late arrivee and I think this was our biggest turn out yet. These Sunday rides are really catching on.
It was good to give the legs a stretch after escorting my flatmate to the cycle show yesterday at a mind blowing 9 mph. So the chance to blast around Regents Park was very welcome. Even though I turned up a sweaty mess after leaving late and getting diverted around Earls Court on the way.
After escorting the Ian, Abs and Karlos to the cycle show, it was too nice a day to go straight home, so another blast around Richmond Park was called for. Well it would have been a blast but it felt more like a mid week commute with what seemed like hundreds of cars queuing to get into an already full car park. You have to feel sorry for them sometimes, it was far too good a day to be stuck in a traffic jam in a metal box
Good to meet you all today guys. Didn't realise we were racing around regent park I'd of put it up to my second chainring ( he says jokingly)
I'm sure Ian will be putting up some pics of the bike porn from the cycle show later also. He fell in love with pinarello stand only to fickly move to de rosa. But the waterproof socks and carbon bra things really took his eye.
I'm not sure it was the socks Ian was looking at
The De Rosa stand also caught my eye
and this is going on my Christmas list. I hope the credit crunch hasn't hit Santa too hard
