Also spotted you, I think, in Richmond Park (anticlockwise) on Sat 20th, 9.30 or so, in full tri-bar mode.

Not me. I was looking after my 2 year old niece that weekend and didn't touch the bike.

Also last night, TimO on the Fulham Road with serious rear lights in use.

Yes, that would be me, I went that way for a bit of variety, and I never normally go that way.

The Dinotte was on, but on it's lowest, dimmest setting, and the redundant Cateye needs some new batteries, so wasn't all that bright.

I think I spotted geraldc last night on his small wheeled bike blasting down Lower Thames Street around 7pm.

Spotted: BentMikey by Aunty C, last night at the Albert Memorial. Thanks for stopping to say hello! Sorry I couldn't stop when we passed again by HPC after 21.00, I was in a rush to get home.

There might be the odd one in Hackney tonight.

There might be several odd ones in Hackney tonight and some very odd ones.

WARNING!

Never look at a Rogerzilla bike with the naked eye.
Always wear shades.

I spotted AlexB tonight. Well at least I spotted his beautiful bike, going up Ritherdon Road in Balham, whilst I was sitting outside the restaurant formerly known as Ferrari's, and I assume that he was on top of it. By the time I'd remembered who's bike it was (My friends gave me a very odd look when I shouted 'I know that bike!), He was well away up the road to Tooting Common

.

Yep that would have been me alright. I spotted a nice Galaxy with a saddlebag chained up around the corner, was that anything to do with you?

I spotted Delthebike and SimonP at my dining table last night, and then I spotted AndrewC at the pub!

I'm taking my "I Spy Book of YACF Cyclists" on the Manchester to Blackpool ride tomorrow. We have already established that Chocolatebike will be there but out of around six or seven thousand riders I'm hoping to tick off one or two more.

Yes that was mine

. I'm beginning to worry that I might be losing it - recognising bikes, not their rider's

On my way to work this morning I was passed by a low flying Benborp

Butterfly · « **Reply #264 on:** 25 July, 2009, 08:32:30 pm »

Last night queueing in traffic on the A11 heading towards Suffolk, a cyclist flew past us and was half way up the road as we both said "that was Zipperhead!"

border-rider · « **Reply #265 on:** 25 July, 2009, 08:50:07 pm »

A slightly flustered Panoramix at about 10 last night

clarion · « **Reply #266 on:** 27 July, 2009, 03:52:37 pm »

Last week on my way home (thurs eve, IIRC), I saw a knee bandage and a Colnago, with a rider attached, swooping through the junction at Clapham North.

I find it more worrying that we've met often enough for us to recognise each other's bikes, but I can't for the life of me remember what your name is! There are quite a few people that I have this problem with...

Yesterday I saw MSeries,ChrisN,Rich Forest & Mr. Banbury plus a couple pf other yacf shirt wearers who I don't know:all at LEL Thorne control.

Deano · « **Reply #269 on:** 27 July, 2009, 08:07:27 pm »

I met Marj through the medium of CAKE. MSeries carried a couple of slices from Thorne to Middleton Tyas for me. I'll never hear the end of it.

Lovely cake, though - cheers, alan & Marj!

My bike was spotted by Em on Thursday evening outside a purveyor of cocoa based products in Spitalfields:

I'm sure I spotted an ACF jersey while I was stood at the side of the A624 coming out of Glossop on the Phil and Friends ride.

He flashed by so quickly (and I was too busy eating the sausage sarnie) that I didn't even see the bike.

It didn't work though - without my reading glasses on, I can't read anything that small.

This morning: Delthebike, AuntieHelen et al. sitting outside a cafe near the Tower of London before their ride to Southend.
