Mosh pit at a concert in Bristol last Friday Maybe at 52 I need to stand at the back these days and not join the youth at the front

I was in the mosh pit at a Stiff Little Fingers gig a few years ago....

EPIC 😳

Is that Whitebait?

Yes.... 🐠 👍

Whitebait & chips and a pint of Moretti, went down a treat.

A bit of a farkup with Lincoln 262. Organisers somehow missed the fact that some rural roads were closed and everyone is bloody lost. Literally everybody. Think will go to the pub and ask for a refund.

Love a good mosh pit. All the pogo-ing, then a sudden surge, and calf went pop! Ooops.

Nightmare. Plan B sounds sound though

@Peter Salt what happened in the end?

Not pretty mate, not pretty. Long story cut short is that there was a level crossing on the route, it's been closed for the past 2 weeks but the organisers somehow missed that. We got there (I was with the front group ) and there was no marshal/official, signs or anything. Rural area, no other roads, we had to backtrack over 10km and then find an alternative route to reach the next checkpoint. The alternative was on a dual carriageway. Two lanes, lorries going past at 56mph - loved it. Got off the dual carriageway, called recovery, we went to the pub. Stake and ale pie with a bit of cider helped

Be extra prepared for the Yorkshire Beast next week @Ketty as it's the same organisers. I don't think they check the routes properly which beggars belief.

Taking it easy next week and then starting squat+sprint training on Zwift - much safer and less frustrating!

It’s been absolutely roasting out here Micheal. It’s been really challenging to be honest. Obviously you take the too hot rather than too cold option so I don’t want to whinge too much! But yeah, very tough…

Just arrived at Ventoux

Thought we were staying at the same place but we are at VeloVentoux and I think you guys were at Velo Vercors?

It’s hot. 39C peak today but slowly cooling through the week.

Tommy - Craig sends his regards!

Ah nice 1

I’m surprised he remembers us the amount of people who goes through there. He came out with lee and me most days in the end. Lethal descender. I think he’s in the top 10 for the total ventoux descent of something similar. Send him my best too if you get the chance. He obviously knows the area like the back of his hand. As epic as ventoux is there a couple of other really nice rides around there no doubt you do. One that does a loop of ventoux. And there is this balcony section that’s really perfect.

Not much food choice in his little village but I can recommend the hamburgers in the local bar!
