Re: Club runs - 8th April

Thanks Paul for the enjoyable hard and consistent today’s ride.
You have smashed the front with an impressive hammer speed at least 88% of the ruote.
Really impressed!

See next

Wanted a super cheap flip flop/ SS wheelset or just the rear

as the topic says.

Budget max 20 pounds.

The wheelset or just the rear with 120 OLD spacing (to my beloved Pompino) for a winter spike tyres set (I sold mine when I moved from Germany but I miss them nowadays :P )

Any conditions, even bent!

Thank you in advance

Re: Club runs - 14th Jan

Carolyne et al. sorry to have left without saying bye.

Andy, Si and I we were freezing so Si took the lead and speed-up a bit the pace. I felt better after that.
We have a no-stop run about 60/65 km and it allowed me to be at home around 12:30 (afternoon at work :( )

Thanks Andy and Si. It was nice!

Re: Club runs - 12th November

Thanks Stuart for leading an epic A-ride.
The weather was strong enough to remind me that "winter is coming" is now "winter is here".

Sorry to Andy, Adam, Jess and you for not saying
Bye but I lost you all 9 km before home.

See you soon :)

Re: Club runs - 12th November

An early start is a good idea (GF in aggro).
If work does not call me in Bristol, probably I will be on the match.
Thanks Stuart

Re: CYCLOCROSS TRAINING SESSION 14/09/17

I was yesterday late afternoon (around 5ish for 40 min or so).

I've never seen all these squirrels in my life :)

Nice park, quite place but pay attention because there are a lot of sh*it haha

I hope next Thursday we can make a gruppetto in there. However, I did not see stairs to practice :(

I don't have kids, but I do have a lot on so can struggle to get the time I want quite often. The things I've found that help me. - I try and plan for my weeks slots at the beginning of the week (Sunday evening), nothing too formal, just a personal commitment to when stuff is going to happen around...

Thank you Chris for leading us during the A-ride.
I literally boiled up my legs 10/15 km before reaching home.
Sorry if I did not say bye to everyone :O
