LEL photos from Thorne
« on: 31 July, 2009, 05:58:11 pm »
I've got back from Thorne, slept, and now my photos are up on Flickr here

So, we have:


Danial looking typically excited


Someone showing their appreciation of the cooking (which was very good)


Someone's wheel after their group had a run-in with a bus


What the volunteers actually did most of the time.


Some of the local cycle facilities


The bike of an American who'd ridden into the back of a van.

And finally...

Someone with extremely good taste: a Mercian bike, Campag kit and tan leather bar tape.

And lots, lots more

That someone is me! I recall a flash, but had assumed it an intermittent fault with my eyes.
Love words, hate lulu? Buy "Barring Mechanicals" on Amazon UK or US

Smashing photos Mr B.
Nice to see my chum peekay upholding the best traditions of YACF Ecosse by holding up the bar.  :thumbsup:
It's a bit weird, but actually quite wonderful.

I think Sina was about to kick my arse in one of these photos.

Be warned, folks. Sina's mom's coming next time. She's like Sina, only more so.

Oh no, that means that there'll be such vast quantities of such good food that all the riders will be unable to move, and will abandon at Thorne.  The beds will then completely run out  and the disgruntled riders will start a war!  Should I ride next time, I'll make a note to stamp'n'go at Thorne.

Congratulations on your taste, then.  As for the green/tan thing, I am actually partially colourblind so this sort of conversations is not new to me  ;D
