    It was brill. The fun of riding stark naked and shocking the hell out of people whilst at the same time removing cars from the central London in a way that Mr Livingstone could never do will stay with me for as long as I live.

    The sad thing was bashing my rear bracket (yes painful) on a step and sending half my campag rear changer to campag heaven. I did the whole ride in one gear! Good job I'd brought the workshop with me.

    Then the 12 mile cycle home afterwards. Good practise for pedle spinning. I would not have missed it for the world and shall be going next year too.

    If I had a stalker, I would hug it and kiss it and call it George...or Dick

    I saw some of the pictures. I would have thought regular cyclists would be slightly less saggy.

    No saggy is what I am best at. Tough for sprinting but great for momentum(fat sods cycle too).

    In a way that was one of the things that the ride was about. It made the statement that we are not all supermen and superwomen and we shouldn't feel bad about our bodies. Just rejoice in the diversity. Body politics can get a bit deep.

    I just enjoyed riding my bike through the middle of London on a Saturday afternoon, in the sunshine, stark naked. Worries me that I may have enjoyed it a <i>little too much</i>.
