Not here either, unfortunately (SP4, Wilts).

Still waiting in SP2; but interestingly have had 2 letters from Southampton go missing. Our local posties are excellent but bigger sorting offices seem to be failing....


My own special delivery arrived today. Thank you Mike

Still not received in Exeter. I think a new mail shot was going out for all in Devon.
Has this happened yet?

I believe Mike's working on a case by case basis at the mo. Plus chasing Royal Mail.

Have you seen the back cover.It's a photo of the riders pushing their bikes trough snow and murk.Perhaps we could use this photo to encourage to take up Audaxing.Another great photo is of one of my club mates.(Witham Wheelers)drinking a pint,during the keep to the roads ride.That photo would also help to promote the cause too ;)

I believe that particular Witham Wheelers rider was 2011's "Most Improved Rider".  A prestigious trophy given the names which have appeared on it in previous years.

Good write up, OD (and Peter). If I'd known you were going to be famous, I'd have got your autograph on Tuesday.

Am more proud of my finely crafted article about the disastrous ride from Hull to London than I ever was of the actual trip.  :smug:
Besides, it wouldn't be audacious if success were guaranteed.

One of the things I like about Arrive is that there is nobody telling me that I need to spend mega amounts to enjoy my cycling. :thumbsup:

In the past I've scanned through hoping to see my ugly mug but no luck.

Getting home tonight, ripping open the wrapper, and WOW !!!

Page 16 Top of Park Rash in the snow - that's me in the yellow, with a big grin on my face.

Pages 40-41 - four pictures :) with Steve Poulton and Bairdy.

Back cover - I think that's also me in yellow, judging by the red bar tape, but I might be wrong !!

6 separate pixies -   :)   :)
I’ve decided I’m not old. I’m 25 .....plus shipping and handling.
