I would just be careful about the amount on show though – if you lose your phone someone could apply for a loan in your name, reset all your internet passwords or worse.

As an alternative I have a laminated […]

This topic is sadly, as others have said, a recurring one. So perhaps a reminder every now and then is a good thing.

I recall clearly Vicki Delve’s (surely spelt wrong) dressing down from quite a few years ago […]

The current kit is too dark for my taste, it has made me want to stick to the old, I mean classic kit.

When I come round a bend to see a bunch of SPR riders I am struck by the impression of a wall of black […]

+1 vote for a Tuesday ride that makes it a priority to stick together on the way back.

If we don’t try to make say Tuesday a steady no-race-pace ride then it will become just like every other ride – […]

How about a printed page or 3 included with each kit – containing a run down of the ride etiquette / safety emphasis of the group and a reminder that wearing the club colours means you are now an ambassador for […]

We had a great size of about 16 riders in Main 2 this week. It fell to me to make sure we all made it and the group made that easy. The roads were wet but they sky was blue and the pace was steady. Not sure if everyone was just feeling like the pace […]

Thanks Lennie, I knew you would understand.

I am beginning to grok how Cav feels; being a true champion and having to cope with those squabbling over 2nd and 3rd 😉

Nev, I really love it when you can read artistic prose like this and at the same time hear the author’s voice in your head. Now get out of my head dammit! I have to say that I am always happy to hear what is happening *behind me* in the sprint 😉 not quite ready […]

Your cycling advocate reporting back … Ken Dyer returned my call and was pleasant to talk to and willing to listen to my concern. The crux appears to be that once the safety runoff area is taken into account (there is a decent dropoff afterall) and a pedestrian safety area in the middle is catered […]

On a roll now: I was also shocked on Tuesday morning to see how narrow the road has become. The ToEF receptionist said me and everyone else wants to voice a concern over the roadworks on PP road, sounds like they are getting a lot of phone calls – although not clear what other peoples’ […]

Wed, 11 May 2011 02:45:21 +0800

Perhaps the widened verges and reduced lane widths are euphemisms for “newly created bicycle hazard zones.” Looking at the time effort and money that has gone into this upgrade, and not seeing a single word mentioning cyclists is sad. Also makes me think that it is way too late to have our say or influence […]

I missed my regular Friday dose today so have that feeling like something is missing….

Sadly my new back wheel is also wobbling like the old one and Yas is healing it for me.

Suppress the adrenaline boys, your life is worth more than a few seconds road space.

It was a lovely cool gaunt this morning, really liking the Fri morning route.

Just as an aside, the cycle paths really are a hazard. Coming off the narrows, minding my own business, heading south, coming round the bendy bit I had a head-on with a guy who had dropped his head and was blocking my side. The impact was pretty impressive, can’t recall how it all rolled, but […]
