    john: didn’t see you after
    john: didn’t see you after the descent of the bwlch, think you must have overtaken me on the rhigos… certainly you finished long before i did 🙂

    spent most of the rest of the ride with gary from [url=http://www.cyclescheme.co.uk]cyclescheme[/url] until i foolishly ingested a zipvit caffeine gel (the equivalent of 2.5 cans of red bull) which fired me back up the bwlch at warp speed. well, a bit faster.

    cracking day out. agreed there was a few idiots out there, red light jumpers who had their numbers taken get disqualified according to organiser lou, but there were a lot fewer than last year apparently.

    Twaz good to meet up with you
    Twaz good to meet up with you 🙂

    I was wondering about you having Aero’s 🙂 but I guess you VIP’s can get away with it 🙂

    Andy and Jacqui didn’t even have to queue to go down the cycle path, they VIP’d straight to the front 🙂

    It was a really nice day out, The climbs were a nice shallow gradient and the descents were awesome!

    I do however fear for the future of our sport when we have 3500 cyclists all on the public road at the same time, with many of them showing a lack of regard for other cyclists let alone the other road users 🙁
