James, Martin was expecting to have a lift with me. Bryn is driving too and has room for 1 passenger So if you've still got room for 1 more passenger, can you to take Martin and I'll keep Bryn company. That'll mean 2 cars instead of 3. (NB Martin d…

Hi Andrew - can you confirm the session is still 7-9pm on Sunday? And is it the same procedure as last time, ie organise our bike hire individually at reception, on arrival?

Ok so Jeremy's new wheels are v smart but not nearly heavy enough Ride was cold, windy, muddy, mechanically challenged and in spite of it all, good fun. Everything you'd expect from a Shaun Special It was blowing a hoolie on the top after Sandon, f…

Hoping to join you, but if it's frosty I'll wait until a bit later
-
... now I'm nervous too
-
9:30 possible tomorrow. Less wind, but v cold ... probably safer to wait until the afternoon Anyone seen a gritting lorry yet?
-
Yes, the ones that survive are pretty strong Please tell me you got home ok, Vince. We need you (especially now that you've got mudguards)
-
I did try to organise some birthday weather, but the forecasters are resisting Looks as if we're going to get a frost on Friday night, followed by sleet first thing on Saturday, plus winds of 20-45mph all morning. I really hope they are wrong
-
Great stuff Andrew If we get enough riders for the 2hour session, I'm in
-
Nightmare, Tim! And what a shame after such a good build-up. (I don't do CX but even I was getting excited about this one) It's not like Rapha to mess up so badly and I should think their PR people are in crisis mode already. I can't imagine they'd …

Highlight of my ride was seeing a big stag jump out of the hedge <100m in front of Pete and me It was towards the end of the descent from the Sue Ryder Hospice at St Pauls Warden ... and I reckon he looked more scared than we did. Although if we'…

Yep, same in the Mordens - the vicar shares his/her time between several churches in the parish That's why the Duxford loop is good on Remembrance Sunday. There's a lot of villages on the route ... and lots of airmen were stationed here during the w…

41miles at 16mph over a lot of leaves and grit. Good steady winter miles that produced mucky bikes and happy riders First time in my life that I've been sorry not to come across a road block at a war memorial. And our only poppy-baring rider was ca…
-
Excellent Duxford loop might be good - plenty of villages for a pause at 11am, as has become the tradition for this ride
-
Anyone out tomorrow? Might be a bit breezy but nothing like as wild as today
-
Not sure even Dry Drayton can avoid the wet that's promised for tomorrow ... but I'd love to be wrong

Very

Forecast is wet, so yes, mudguards and winter pace November now. Welcome to winter riding. Didn't we have a spectacular October, though
-
How about celebrating Jeremy's (21st again) birthday this Saturday ... ... and Shaun's on 21st Nov? (Else a pre-birthday ride on 14th instead?)

I have a small womens gilet from Endura and a small mens gilet from Castelli. Both a couple of years old now. The Endura is definitely a bit bigger (and the cut fits my shape better, but not a v fair comparison because my Castelli is a mans cut). Thi…

Go Skelders!

That was brilliant! Go CCA Great photos Nathan, again. My favourite is the 4 little boys perched on top of the obstacle course whilst all the mud sweat and gurning goes on, with a lovely autumn-leaves background ... which sums up the atmosphere for …

Thanks All No carbon rails for me either and I seem to be happier with flat profiles, both L to R and nose to tail. Interesting review in Total Womens Cycling - just shows how different we all are I've settled on a Selle Italia. It was good on a sh…

That's really pretty ... and unfortunately far too big for me
-
5 out in gorgeous autumn weather for a longish but steady 9:30 ride. Thanks go to Carmelo for navigating 70 miles, 800m climbing, av 15.5mph. Bicicletta in Saffron Walden was doing a roaring trade Dominic tried and tried to stir up a sprint, but th…

You short on time, Phil? Or just getting extra shredded wheat for breakfast?
-
Watch out for the deer when you descend (and the badgers, but you know that already)
-
Good to have you on board, Gareth. And Fin too, of course I'm quite scared of trying to keep up with you two when the fitness returns
-
Luke, that's outrageous! And very well done
