Jolly good!

I waved as much as I felt able to without losing control of the car. You may not have noticed, but I think I confused the person driving behind you  ;D

You're supposed to wind down the window and shout "Get on the cyclepath!"

I believe that is the traditional yacf greeting.   ;D

Unless there actually is a cyclepath, when you have to fall back to the old classic "Cyclewankers!"

Hoppo, or at last someone wearing his jersey as they zapped past me. 

He was doing our local winter hardriders TT while I was on the last leg of my 70-odd km on the recumbent.

Possibly embarrasing for them, but I passed another TTer.  :thumbsup:

Teethgrinder,  IanH and the rest of the team at the Bike Show.  The interviewer sadly started off by confusing his Tommy Godwins..  ::-)

Basil, That Brum, over ALE.

It was a while before we noticed what we were both drinking was 5% ABV...

Rode out to a pub on the outskirts of Durham to have a beer in the sunshine and watch Seaham Sircular audaxers trundle past. Spotted fboab and mcshroom among the crowds. The 15kph lower limit was really pushing riders up against the time limits for this hilly ride. Tough on bicycles too, I spotted two separate incidents of riders with broken seatpins.

Really felt Spring-like today, beautiful sunshine and warmth.

chris n (mostly the back half of) during 2.5 lovely hours of rolling terrain in S Derbyshire sunshine, with a bit of tea thrown in at the end for good measure.

Bloody lovely.
