Ruthie and Mcshroom, in our back garden, eating and dancing (though not both together). Great to see them both, especially Ruthie who seemed to be having a great time.

I was lucky enough to see the delightful NSTN walking the dog in her local park not once, but twice already this week! :)

Roffa, who met us near Druten and rode with us to 's-Hertogenbosch. Great to spend the day with him!

Arallsopp, at his house, where I was borrowing some gps bits after leaving mine at home when I caught the train to the airport.  What a legend - I'm so grateful that I may even take down the embarrassing picture of him sleeping on the floor on LEL09!

Ambleside Avenue in Streatham, waiting at the lights this morning: a polka-dot YACF jersey.

My money is on TimO.
Although, on second thoughts, that's a bit north for his commute. He would've been heading westish earlier.... maybe.

ETA Ambleside - I'm thinking Amesbury  :facepalm: Doh!
Ambleside, my money is back on TimO  :)

Jurek has it, it was almost certainly me, since I've yet to see another cyclist in a polka dot YACF jersey on my commute!

I've been running a bit later than optimal this week, that junction is definitely on my route, and it's a lucky commute when I don't have to wait at those lights.
Actually, it is rocket science.

Is this thread the 'Real World TM' equivalent of Pokémon GO?

Wowbagger on a campsite in Canterbury.
He was a bit surprised to be greeted by a total stranger, but I thought I'd seen his distinctive features earlier and using his forum name for his wifi was a bit of a give away.
Nice to meet you, if only briefly!

And you, Steve!

I reckon that must be a very geeky first, being recognised by wifi hotspot!

Charlotte and Iris (I don't think fair Julian was there, but I wasn't paying attention) as I lurked in Hyde Park with misc. Cycle Chatters before we went on a Sunday London Ride. Charlotte, Iris and Friend were off on an LFGSS jaunt, although they did seem to be sporting more than 1 gear each.  Iris is teh cute. Obvs.
