I went a different route this morning (Victoria to E&C, including Embankment and Waterloo Bridge, hoping that I might see some different folk.  But there were disappointingly few cyclists out there this morning :(
Getting there...

Did I spot a woollypigs doing a cycle surgery/doctor bike session at the north end of Southwark bridge last night around 5pm? I was running past as I was late for a train so didn't stop to say hello :-[

Seen two today, Deano as we drove down the A167, then MSeries as we drove back, 2 hours later!

While I was busy feeling sorry for myself and not riding round with MrCharly et al, I spotted his lad riding round town.  In my lurgified state I couldn't keep up with him  >:(

I wasn't on the A167 today. It was an imposter. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

You should have beeped, T.  I probably wouldn't have flicked you the v's.

Lots of VC167 shirts out today.  It could have been FE Bob or Steve B, if you saw 'em from behind.

MrCharly, dropping off a light and picking up some shoes at our house (which was stuffed to the gunnels with noisy boys at the time) earlier today.

Nah saw what I thought was MSeries, from the front as we passed the Maunby turning.

It was but a fleeting glance tho....

I wasn't going to beep at you 'cos:
1) I was in a car you wouldn't have recognised (changed it on Friday)
2) the look on your face said "Just don't you dare", might have been due to the tandem chasing you :)

Ah yes, the tandems.  The buggers had already overtaken me, and Sleepy startled me out of a reverie, so when I passed them again while they stopped to take off rain jackets, I was very watchful for them coming past me again.  That probably accounts for my seeryuss expreshun.

Quarter to six-ish, just east of Murrayfield stadium (Saughton Crescent, on the blue-signed route out to the Gyle): - what looked suspiciously like an ACF cap peeking out from under a bright orange helmet.  Drop bars, yellow jacket.  Unknown rider ...

CrinklyLion, riding through St Nicks. I was unloading the truck, and my sudden wave confused my colleague (who had his back to the path) who thought I'd developed some sort of Nazi tic.

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

A Zipperhead on a Condor Classico (hope the BB is behaving itself) in Putney just before 1pm.

Just as I was coming back from a dog walk I saw Mrs. Wow going off on her Brompton. Does that count? It was about 50 yards from home. Morphy was very excited to see her unexpectedly in a different place.
