Hired a Boris bike and rode down to South lakes. Function wise the bike is bombproof, but the ride is atrocious with its solid tyres

I always use one to get from Paddington to St. Pancras, quicker than the Tube... 😂

Last time I did a circuit of Regents Park en route with my small suitcase wedged into the front carrier, couldn't keep up with all the Mamil's though... 😢

They're certainly not a fast bike. Rock solid functionality

I think daughter has got a yearly deal, seen as she and her boyfriend use them alot to get around London

I use to come on here to catch up on biking banter - now it’s like having a wander through A&E ! 😁

But how much time do you have to spend in A&E before they name I ward after you?!

I thought that was Bob in the background for a minute, with a walking stick because of the 'you know what'. Then I realised it was an old woman ... oh hold on a sec ...

So you made a mistake and thought you recognised her because she looked like @bobinski but then realised that you recognise her from Tinder??

I'm up for a bit more racing . Still at the bottom of Cat C . I'm quite happy sitting on the bench until needed or if theres a CCC 2nd team that would suit
Not been of zwift for a while holidays and hot weather etc , just about to try it again

 

[IrishAl]

Hi gents happy summer (don’t see any femmes joined the CCC!) I’m definitely up for some ZRL - I plan on jumping into Cat B despite the lack of racing. I’ve had a reasonable summer getting around 6 to 8 hours in a week (mainly base miles with the odd Strava KOM effort thrown in just to test the heart and lungs.

It seems we need that Bologna ITT sometime early September to see who fits where

That would be fun as long as ZP doesn't 'see' it Is Bologna available as a route in "clubs" yet? I can't see it.

There’s one way to make sure that ZP doesn’t ‘see’ it… finish in less than 20 minutes!

 

[CXRAndy]

Its an awful climb, super steep at the start. I'm ridiculously slow compared to most on here. My best time is just over 20 mins for the TT

There is an event at 9.30 today and 10am 6pm and a couple later tomorrow. I might do tomorrow
