Good to get out on a ride again and the extra ride after was good too. Can some sweep the roads first next time?

Thanks Paul for leading and Andy & Jon for TEC duties. Always nice to get out and revisit some of the roads from my youth. As always great company see you all soon.

Well, nobody crashed with me being TEC for the first half, which means it must be Red5 that is the jinx as we've had a rider down when he's led and I've TEC'd!

Cheers for leading and organising the route and decent weather. Some of them roads were well dodgy with all the crap on them but it made you concentrate that's for sure. I'm betting I wasn't the only one that had a slip or two!

Even got home in time to cut the grass, so brownie points intact for the next one.

Cheers, Andy

Thanks Phil for organising the first leg out to tivvy!

Thanks to Ming and Bambam for ‘volunteering’ for TEC duties.

Great rideout today. Warmish and sunnyish throughout and in places the roads concentrated the mind a little :mrgreen: . I reckon even Dean Harrison and the other road race specialists would have raised a sweat in places :shock: .
Best part of the ride for me? All of it :D .
Thanks to Paul Shooey for organising, planning and leading :-bd and to our honorary TEC-man Andy Ming on the first 50% of the route :-bd . And to AN Other on the green Kwacker (sorry, didn't catch the name) for TEC-ing most of the remainder :-bd . You both let me off the hook nicely #:-s !
And thanks to all the other riders for the company and laughs :-bd . . . . . . . . . . I learned some new and interesting cornering lines and techniques today :mrgreen: . Roll on the next masterclass!
