CrinklyAuntie, when she came round to pick me up to go horrible-market shopping.  Then, shortly after she dropped me off and left, CrinklyUncle who popped round on his shakedown ride of the new shiny red bling.  Which is indeed rather splendid!

Someone who may not be of this parish, onna bike, wearing a helmet, spotted me just now at the bottom of King[']s Heath and shouted "Hey Kim!".  I didn't see who, as I was preoccupied by the guy in front of me on the blue fixie who was confusingly slowing to a trackstand in primary position and gesturing me to undertake for no obvious reason (until they turned into the pedestrian entrance to Highbury Park a little later).

Any takers?

One of the Birmingham Cyclist people has owned up to the deed.  (Where I've now started a highly derivative forumite spotting thread of its own.)

Phantasmagoriana, towing a trailer, and going the opposite way to me on the river path.

Except I didn't clock it was her (because I was distracted by a couple of free-roaming hounds at the time) until she was just about past me, so didn't say hello.

*waves a belated Hello!*

An assortment of non-Basil forumites, onna ride around Birmingham's cycling-flavoured points of historical interest.

Tiermat, PolarBear and Melle PB in the den, briefly, before one of the original fast-northern-boys-wot-are-a-bad-influence dragged the PBs off to a(nother) pub :)

It's not so fast, under me, but it does contain red, so must be faster then the (blue and yellow) winter bike. ;)

If I had a baby elephant, it could help me wash the car. If I had a car.

Well, gossiping and ranting have also occurred... but mostly coffee drinking, it is true.

Great to see you, even if I had to pull over in the middle of a junction as the lights were changing to call to you. ;D

On Saturday, what looked like a Bunbury, heading into York on Blossom Street outside the cinema. He appeared behind a bus and was off before I could shout anything.

HK (seen quite frequently) in Paris (not that unusual) during a UAF 200 brevet (somewhat rare). She seemed to be enjoying the weekend away.

London spot - along the Embankment at about 6.15 tonight, what looked like a yellow YACF jersey heading west.  I was on the other side so couldn't make contact.
