I feel a bit left out. Anyone take any of this route in the morning? (Or a similar one in the evening...)

Thought I spotted a Charlotte here - Gmaps Pedometer yesterday morning, however I blasted past (which also makes me dubious that it was actually C ) without checking as was late for work!

So if you spotted a guy riding hell for leather on this -> Twitpic - Share photos on Twitter , it was probably me!

Hehe, that sounds a bit like the roadie who coughed up a lung when we stopped at a set of lights, after trying to hold onto my wheel.

Those tyres are road specific and bloody fast. :thumbsup:

Someone who looked suspiciously like Liz on the Baywater Road today, but it probably wasn't.  Passing Lancaster Gate at 3.50pm.

This may have been mentioned elswhere on the forum - I'm hopeless at keeping up.

Has anyone mentioned Page 25 of the Evans' 09 Summer Catalogue?

I don't believe they have.  Do I have to go to Evans' or will you clarify?

btw, I am disappointed that, in all my circuitous routes home, I've not been spotted :(

I spotted a Clarion some weeks ago and we cycled a part of the way home together.


There, is that better?  ;D

I don't believe that it is them. Not unless my mother was right and I need the even thicker glasses.

Probable: Mixed couple on a tandem heading south along St Margarets Road in Twickenham about 15 mins ago.

No idea who you are but I'm pretty sure I noticed you on the London Freewheel last year as the pilot was wearing an ACF Jersey at the time.

Any offers?

And I spotted fixer at London Bridge station this morning.  Or, rather, he spotted me, as I was wearing a T-shirt with 'Clarion' written on it, and carrying a track wheel ;D

Disappointingly, he wasn't riding a fixed.  But, rather pleasingly, he was riding a nice Shorter with a pleasingly small number of gears, and sprint carriers up front.  I hope the unbalanced load was OK :-\

This morning, going into work, I met a lost-looking chap with a bike bag over his shoulder heading for the North terminal. I nattered wiht him for a while, the FNRttC got mentioned, and he suddenly goes "You're Tourist Tony!"

Off to Bologna, turns out he and some mates will be with us on Friday May 8th. Caaaaaaake?
