Great ride.

Cheers for organising Druidh. Good to put some faces to names.

(13thFM - I have already patented MechStick so you owe me a big bunch of royalties).

Yup, a good day out indeed. I'm resting before next sunday's ride, no hill reps the day before, especially if we are doing the full 87m! Can someone please book the weather, or can mudguards be complusory so i don't end up looking like i've been mtb'ing! 😛

A muddy face is the penalty for wheel-sucking.

Top day folks. Cheers Druidh for posting the loop. Comedy chain snap award of the day goes to Jimmy. There is already a patent on a BendeeStick in Radoggair's name. It had a multitude of potential uses, possibly duplicating the MechStick?

Naw, naw, naw...

MechStick is an entirely different device. I'm already in talks with Shimano to produce Ultegra and Dura-Ace variants; 105 is just a wee bit too common though.

Superb roads and great company, even the biblical weather at the start didn't put a dampener on the day 😮

Stuartie, Bigdugsbaws might beat you to the market with his patented 'longer adjustment screws', an idea originally mooted by some unsung genius but then callously stolen by Doug.

Druidh, hope you got your petrol money off Andy somehow! 😀

13fm - he's waiting until after next weeks ride before issuing the invoices, don't worry though, I'll see you right.

Thanks for a cracking day folks. Glad I managed keep up AND my legs are just about working today 😀

Really enjoyed that, not being a roadie, I can actually say that it was quite good fun and exciting at times! Rear wheel drifts, skids and loose gravely corners 😀

Might even consider getting a road bike soon...
