The 2012 Games site is coming on in leaps and bounds - Anish Kapoor's "Olympic Legg" thrusting skywards like a red stick insect... we all agreed that it was truly 'a work of art'.

When the three thousand metre crepe bandage (at present being woven from rare silkworm thread only found in Colnago workshops) is installed, it will be the centrepiece of the best Olympic games since Bob Beamon broke the long jump record in 1968!

Wayhayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Am back on two wheels after fracturing my arm in April. (I have been doing all my physiotherapy exercises and - with Doctor approval - been using my turbo trainer every day for six weeks or so). It has paid off.

Last Sunday I went to the Olympic Stadium - albeit on my Scooter - to wave at the Sunday London Riders !
On Wednesday I rode my bicycle outside in the real world for a couple of hours for the first time in 2.5 months.
Yesterday I did a 60 mile ride around Essex.

Lucky me!

I took some Pics

Am currently settling into the garden with a few beers. This may or may not interfere with my plan to be at HPC tomorrow. Will decide in the morning!!

My bets are it does. You missed a good ride there, fella. Thanks go to Adam for putting the prep in. Here's Dave, looking suitably amazed.

Good to see you all again,

Andy.

Yes - I agree with Andy. Gentle, refined and steady. It rather felt that I was riding myself A good one Adam - you swot! Charlie's commute route back to Harrow looked as though it had been used by B-52s as bombing practice during WWII, and had since deteriorated.

A mint Franklin...

a benchmark for beautiful benches...

Architects know who wear the trousers in London...

Serenity, with the oaf scoffing tons of grub and all the other humans Photoshopped out of the scene. I'll get Mahatma coat, and all the other stuff...

Along with a nice, nice line in Bourbon , Andrij declared 'Freedom for Toes'


Oh, I nearly forgot - a big 'hello' to Gail, the sensible part of Team Mark Grant!

Glad you got a pic of that. Was quite the thing of beauty, and (I'm pleased to see) held in high regard by those in the know.

St Louis comes to town, with the Blues (someone I know's favourite colour!) Bring a souvenir of London - threefingerJoe could have a bit of a blast this Sunday!

Who knows - we might even go and see Ronald Reagan too, as Adam's organisation fell a bit short last Sunday

Not this one though...

Not True Mr 'Teef. Flying Dodo took us straight to it. It's just that it looked like this (see image)!

Well I never..!

Anyway, threefingerJoe is a fiddle player and he alluded to some 'special stuff' that he gets up to when I met him last Thursday. No lycra needed, but if you shake hands and suddenly 'get a twirl', don't worry - he's only playing!
