    Looks like a missed a another good night, glad all had a good time again

    Remeber last time I was waffling on about how i though there was a hill in Dundry that I was sure would get me over the 50 mark but had only so far managed 48.....well it did tonight :):):) woohooo 51MPH (gloat gloat), I absolutely shot down it, bless the still evening conditions and 2 slices of toast I had before hand, I can rest easy now, I have hit my target.......but just imagine if there was a 55 hill around there somewhere :)

    I clocked 53.9mph last night........

    when I left/arrived at Mud Dock. The security barriers transmit duff readings to my Lidl special computer :(

    50?!

    Blimey.

    I'm still nervous at 30.

    Aye I'm away all of next week as well, and what'll you do without the life and soul, huh?

    I did hit 27mph on the flat which means my legs were spinning at 140rpm

    see I get confused about how fast I can go on the flat as if i get too fast I assume its actually not flat but slightly downhill :)

    Doh - must remember, I can't compete in outright speed, I don't think my liddle legs will take it on the fixie!

    Sadly I'm busy having my flat warming party on Saturday eve and prepping for it Saturday aft.

    You're all welcome to come post-ride? Have a shower first though ;) The theme is L & S (i.e. things that begin with either or both letters)

    Tuesday however - well - I don't /think/ I'm booked up! Let's say yes.

    Where?

    Yes. Chips. Clearly I need something for the beer to soak into...

    OK, 18:30 Mud Dock, upstairs watching the wimmin rowers skullin past on the river. Normally 18:00 but some people work miles away and the only hope they have of getting there for 18:00 is to bunk off early.

    Work have just decided that they need me in London all next week, I might be able to make but I'll be at the mercy of Network Rail and any leaves etc.

    Just a reminder to anyone around this way that they're welcome to come along to my flat warming party in Totterdown tonight :) Text me on XXXXXXXX with who you are and I can reply with postcode and street number/name...

    ..strictly the theme is L and/or S, so Lycra Shorts will work well however it'd be nice if you showered after the ride ;)

    So any of you Brizzle-ites want to come down here to deepest darkest Devon sometime for a social?

    I know of some excellent hostelries down here in Exeter :D
    Would love to - I am a "Shaldon" person myself....so, I knows Exeter a bit.

    Organise a ride out and I would be in for the money!

    I'd love to join in but I don't finish work until 9pm :-(

    Have fun
    Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around you could miss it.

    It's looking a bit quiet on the South-Western Front here...

    I might take a rain check and have a quicker stop (long enough for chips and beer though!) and an early night this time if there'll only be the two of us! Still knackered, the flat-warming party didn't really help with the sleep-debt accrued on ship....

    Well I'm not likely to arrive until 7ish I'm afraid - so don't worry if you're a little late ;)
