England : London Sunday London ride

[ianrauk]

It's actually Clive (Mista Preston) who we need to thank for the Sunday Rides. He put a call out for riding chums in Bromley. I took the call and with over a year gone it's still going strong and we have had some cracking rides. So cheers Clive..

and long may it continue.

Hello Tollers! Long time no see on CC! A Bianchi...bloody hell! Are you getting the miles in? Poor Tizi- relegated. If you make it to a ride hope to catch up then.

Thanks for the clear up Ian - Cheers to Mista Preston!

A Bianchi?. not one of those pale pastel bluey type colour things is it?

It will only be acceptable if it's blue...any other colours will be tolerated by Ian, but only just tolerated.

Hehehe. Do you mean 'celeste' aka turquoise? I was hoping to, but there's pretty much no availability in the US. So, i've gone for normal blue or a shade Bianchi call 'Specilzatta dela Ianissimo'. It's notorious for needing frequent cleaning

I'll post real photos in a proper thread over the weekend once i've picked it up.

Don't worry Ian will do it for you no doubt! I'm glad he didn't see old Jed last Sunday- he was horrendously dirty and in need of a good old clean. Poor old bike!

but not Bianchi Blue.. or 'Celeste' a horrid shade of blue..(sorry RedJedi and any other Bianchi owners)

One could go off a person.

Mind you, the frame I'm gonna build up this winter has what some would see as a major problem.

It's purple...

Here you go Ian!

 

[ianrauk]

thank you Mark.... that looks so much better...

 

[Becs]

Will people be out this weekend?

 

[redjedi]

but not Bianchi Blue.. or 'Celeste' a horrid shade of blue..(sorry RedJedi and any other Bianchi owners)

Anyway it's more a horrid beautiful shade of green

you won't get very far on that. It's not got any wheels, cranks, brakes, handlebars, saddle....and it's the wrong colour

Jealous? Moi?

 

[ttcycle]

Planning to be there - though supposed to meet a friend for tea Sunday so depends on where she wants to meet and how early but I'm a tentative yes

 

[Sittingduck]

That's a nice Blue Bianchi! The Celeste/Colgate Fresh-Stripe ones, though... not my cuppa
May well be out on Sunday.
