leaving in 10, Sun looks like it may prevail and beat the clouds !
enjoy.
Really nice to meet you all and put faces to names.Well that's the remainder of last night Chicken Jalfrezi polished off.
Another great Cycle Chat Bromley Massive ride. At the Dripping Tap was Myself, BentMikey, Arallsopp, Mista Preston, Benborp and Topcat.
A speedy ride into London where at HPC we were joined by User3143, Zimzum, HaloJ, Martok & fresh from his sojourn around the M25, the Mighty Aperitif.
11 in all, the most we have had on one of these rides. So into Hyde Park, as usual first stop was for those with weak bladders. A lap of the Park completed and BentMikey was off to work. Back to the Wellington Arch, on to Buck House, down the Mall, Trafalgar Square, Whitehall, Parliament Square where we did a left, left onto Embankment following the Thames to the Docklands where coffee was had at Canary Wharf.. of course my coffee was made from jumping coffee beans as the cup decided to throw itself in the general direction of Martok.. you can't take some people anywhere can you?. Coffee had, it was time to head back. Arallsopp, Mista Preston and Benborp split to head south through the Rotherhite Tunnel the rest of us carried on to London Bridge where it was my turn to turn South and head for home. The others carried on to.....
A great ride, the weather held, 11 riders, new faces and old.. always a pleasure riding with Cycle Chat peeps. 50 miles for me.. en avant.

.....after a quick lap of Borough Market and headed back North over Blackfriars Bridge. Lee made an escape whilst the remaining bunch headed West along Victoria Embankment losing TopCat as we turned North for Trafalgar Square. Four left filtering the busy traffic up through Tottenham Court Road and Camden where we lost Zimzum. Onwards through Chalk Farm and onto the final part of my normal commute. I burst off ahead but lost Aperitif as he turned off although he kindly waited and bid farewell to Martok. Then with myself and Martok reunited we continued up through Hampstead and sped down Bishops Avenue making a break for home.

I made it home bang on 1pm
It was great to see you all today i think the number of people is a record for the Sunday ride.
A different route out to see the Canary made for a nice change metinks plus the weather held. Next time we need to fully tour the area
Approx 40 miles today but the heat took its toll on me on the run home.
Thanks for a great ride everyone
