Clubbies tend to ride like utter Bell ends, all but one year of riding the event has taught me this.0 -
5:52 for me.
Sounds like I might be riding like an utter bell end.
A technique that I must say intrigues me somewhat.0 -
07:32 sounds like i’ll be riding with the nodders Cannondale SS Evo Team

Wrong again. I have also ridden it four times and am back this year, which by my calculations means we have the same amount of experience.Milemuncher1 wrote:

Unless the experience you are talking about is in talking shite.
You are the leader in that area.0 -

I sometimes ( rarely ) ride with a club, but really only to get the shop discount that comes with membership.0 -
The clubbies are great, you can hitch a tow with them, they tend not to stack it into road furniture through town, take the correct racing line downhill from Newlands corner, and don't get off and walk up Leith.
And it's "clubbies" that keep the sport going at grassroots level, arrange the smaller sportives, eg May Flyer, Spring Onion, Chiltern 100 etc. They also tend to be the ones who, when they're on their own and sense you behind them, will point out hazards, potholes, gravel, glass etc. They also provide many of the marshals at races, sportives and ride helpers for the Pru 100.
So if on closed roads they want to stick together and tear along at 20-25mph then I say good luck to them , and enjoy the day.0 -
Milemuncher - are you an invention of one of the MF's ? You're talking like them now.0

In my experience, people who say club riders 'ride like c*nts' are invariably just pissed off that they're faster than them. The vast majority of c*ntish riding I saw a couple of years ago when I did it was absolute Freds in Rapha kit, and nodders who must have put down ridiculous estimates finishing times they couldn't hope to achieve on an e-bike.Fat chopper. Some racing. Some testing. Some crashing.

I'd definitely say that most club riders can ride wheels. Sure you'll get the odd few that are idiots - but if they're idiots on the club run they won't be in the club for long.
I'd say the worst riding will be from people who aren't used to riding in groups.0 -
Start time of 08.00hrs, its my first attempt and looking forward to it! Raising funds for Spinal Injury Association.Paracyclist

You’re a proper cnut. What if that’s someone off here that people know?
I’ll snap your sh*t bike in half if I ever have the misfortune of bumping into you.0 -
