Sorry guys I feel kind of bad towing @AndyMacca to a fast pace. He started 12 minutes behind me to strategically use me for those 1.5 seconds of draft at mile 10.

Great race, after you dropped me with about 3kms to go i thought if he gets another gap he's gone but I could just hold on and then gave it more than everything at the end to just pip you.
Join the Tuesday handicap and we can ride together and hopefully hold @AAAC 76C off for a while!

if i aint on 'the dark side 'then i will have a go next tues thanks - are new riders given a generous handicap ?

Were you in full lycra for the electrician?

It was only way to get a discount
Actually just padded shorts. I still looked weird though and explained straight after saying "hi!". Although I'd have looked a lot worse if he'd called at 18:30.

Except your new bike is so perfect anything else will be a let down.

No, if we get anything it's just a few olives

Don't think I'll make it this evening and if I do i won't be competitive as I'm currently half way through an 80kms tandem ride. Just hope my stoker, who's shopping at the moment hasn't bought anything heavy for the return trip.
If anybody y wants a drafter for this evening i wouldn't mind testing the spare computer i accept American express (otherwise known as @Randyberlin) or beer tokens.

I'm also going to take advantage of a rare nice fall day to do a real world ride.

 

[keithaitch]

Nope, no ride for me, knackered after the tandem !

 

[AAAC 76C]

who is in today

 

[shimceltic]

It's gonna take a bit of persuasion for me as not really interested at the moment
