Had a nice windy ride out of princetown today . And just to prove we realy are mad we rode up the "widow maker" on singlespeeds ! The ride was finished off with beer and cottage pie in the pub. Thanks for coming along , Charlie(sm500) .Comments ?

going up the widow maker was hard ! Although strangely satisfying in a way only a singlespeeder would know.

By hell that place looks bleek when the sun does not shine.

Paul did you DO the widow maker in one hit or did you put your red socks on ๐Ÿ˜‰

Q's tomorrow?

Great ride, the opposite way round from usual with a couple of cheeky extras for added spice. And the Official End to the Winter as well.

Great photo's as usual Knottie, and cool to meet you sm500.

I have succeeded in numbing the pain in my legs by the application of several pints (trying to make amends for drinking shandy in a pub at the end of the ride).

Now summer is here, to paraphrase the Boots advert: "Here come the gears" (thank fek)
