The Epic Journey begins...

Early for the train, a minor miracle!

Early for the train, a minor miracle!

And I thought I was up early! See you later.....

 

[Flossyrockstar]

Nice rear tyre! Didn't know they done em in pink!

Hmm trains running late into Paddington. 1 hr sprint across the city to meet the gang - this is going to be 'interesting'.

 

[al-onestare]

Stay safe folks; we've had too many fatalities this month.

 

[M-Power]

Yeah its open season on cyclists :shock: :evil:

Looking forward to the pics later.

8 go mad on the South Bank.

 

[al-onestare]

LOL I work just round the corner from there; you were lucky not to be chased by the security staff. Strictly no cycling on that bit apparently.

What a cracking day out, got zig-zagged dizzy at times! Brilliant to dance around the capital through all it's short cuts and secret byways, duckin' an' divin'

Some great sights, not least of which the view from Greenwich Observatory (it's obscured by old bikes in the pic below) and fantastic company; if I wasn't grinning I was chuckling!

We covered some ground too, was showing fifteen when I reached Croydon, really surprised how it flew by!

Congratulations on a well deserved BotR amongst some serious competition ... although throwing it at the street was a strange way to celebrate I thought :?

Massive thanks to Mark for shepherding - no mean task on a ride like this - and Kean & Gordon for seeing me safely back to Euston with time to spare ... time I spent wisely I think you'll agree:

There's less than that now

Look forward to catching up with you all again sometime!
