geoff
just got back from from manchester so i will come out for a spin, is there a middle ride going out if so i can do that
need to back for around 12 - 12.30 see you at nine
strappy.
Club run stats
46miles back at 12.30 exactly
( two stops lost us 30 mins )
ave 15mph and 1800 feet of climbing
someone noticed the same person on the front
to half way - excellent work :-)
with Vic doing all the work back into the wind
respect !
couple of sprints at the end
( new contestant on the block ! )
Looking to do "extended club runs "
from now on
ie 45 miles / 3 hours riding
( plus what ever stops )
those wanting to get back
need to have own group or split
( let me know and I will tell you the route
- well as far as I know it anyway )
good ride with all back together
ave will pick up as the weather gets better
Best quote of the ride
" remember two ears and one mouth "
actually knew where we where this time
don't worry , will get us lost next week
Ouch!! I ended up with 80.1 and 16.7 ave. Thought we were going quicker than that but then we did go up every hill in Essex, Phil was having some sort of mad " lets recreate the Tour of Flanders in Essex" thing going on.
I recognised very little of where we were, but was actually a great route, thanks Phil. Thanks for the wheels coming back into that wind as well chaps, i was about fried.
Got home at 1.40 to find everyone else starting puddings. You can guess at my popularity levels, hopefully will be allowed out again by June ;-)

yes it was a great route i got back at 2.15 with 89 miles on the clock,when i peeled of at buntingford it was in to the wind my legs were shot i think next
time i will stay with the bunch & get some help back to ashwell.
as luck would have it we had already cooked the turkey the day before :result .have a good easter.
strappy.
there's a big part of me misses these rides and another that remembers the pain of following one of Phil's happy hilly rides!!!!!!!!.....sounds a good ride James..can't do that much yet..well done ...... any chance of posting that route of Phil's on the forum?.....happy cycling everyone, and a happy Easter
