Just a quick post to remind everyone why we have pockets on the back of our jerseys. They are there to hold everything you need to survive a ride – gels, bars, bananas, phones, cash and whatever else might be required. But…
they are also there to bring back all of your empty wrappers and rubbish!
On this mornings ride there was a little incident involving an empty gel being discarded on the side of the road. We want to make sure the club is always presented in the best way so please make sure that everything you take out with you on a ride you bring back.
fully agree
when i first saw the title i thought it was about the jokes…and thought wow that’ll be a challenge!
@snuggles – the ride sure would be a lot quieter if Kimbo had to keep his mouth shut! 😉
Hear, hear!!
or ride fast enough that he won’t be able to talk?
people eat gels on our sat ride?? no wonder Inever win the sprint!
I was so tempted to have a gel (with epo) but held out 🙂
Just to be clear.. EPO is not a suppository
If anyone drops litter on our rides, they should be asked to leave the group…
Well, I guess dropping by mistake can be excused.. Throwing is a different matter.. Imediate expulsion.. Grrr… Hate litter bugs…
Totally agree Toby et al. Littering is laziness and has no place on our rides. If you can get the gel/bar out of your pocket, you can put the empty back in 🙂 There are even a few pros who won’t throw away empty biddons (not that it really applies to us weekend warriors).
