Wot no WOW !

Wow' spotted in group of 4 around the 80km mark going against the route.

After falling off and breaking my hand on last year's Run (which got an anonymous mention in the injuries column of the latest Arrivee, fame at last!) I managed to get round in one piece in a, for me very good, avg. speed of 25.2km/h.  The organiser said he'd had news of a couple of people coming off today, most likely wheel touches in groups as the roads were fine.

I'm not sure I'm in shape for the Invicta Grimpeur next week though.

During our WARTY recce ride today we crossed paths with some of the Braziers Runners. JWO first, just after High Easter, then TOKaMaK, who was doing his own thing and wasn't part of either rides and finally Toontra turned up and had the cheek to ask what time the PO opens on Tuesday! (it's closed Tuseday for the ones that didn't get it  ::-)  ;) ) Many more cyclist, going the other way, passed but I don't think anymore Yacfers until Chris and Yellow DooDah.
We, the Wows, Peli and myself, enjoyed our day riding we hope you enjoyed yours.

You don't often get to read that :D

In fact, come to think of it, I don't think I have ever read that before :-[
