    Yeah thanks to Nhatt and Xander. Good effort on going to photocopy more manifests when you realised there were so many entrants! I like short and compact alleycats like that. Intense fun riding with Ricardo and the others, wrong way down Aldwych with a bunch of black-clad, light-less and dark skinned dudes was kind of sketchy but everyone seemed in control.
    Thanks again to the messengers I followed most of the way - would have gone nowhere without you guys, especially since I lost my A-Z at the 3rd checkpoint...

    Re: that Hill... well I spent a week in Sydney over Xmas - including a hillclimb race with Safa Brian - so that only felt like a slight incline!

    It's a fix! I demand a recount!



    Few more here

    This is the route I expected the winners to take, going anti clockwise from the Foundry.
    13 mile circuit.
    It does include a little contra-flow and cutting through Leicester Square which on a Friday night is maybe not a great idea but you could just go up round Shaftesbury Ave.

    The route looks a bit like a wasp with no wings or legs.

    Check the route for the Kamasutracat - looks like a horse jumping a fence!

    bill, I just realized you have my A to Z.

    I might need that for work tomorrow....just a thought.

    Just as a BTW, Xander did all of the organizing, I'm just more obnoxious than he is so I got to yell at people.

    :sad:

    Had to drop out due to technical failure too. After riding around with a fucked bottom bracket all day I thought that it would surely last out the evening...nope, at one point it locked up and I forgot that on a fixed gear this means the rear wheel locks up too, nearly causing me to take out the poor fakenger who was following me with a hugely whipped out, barely controlled skid :shamed:

    we dropped out once we were north of great portland street. I saw the two W8's, was tired, a little pissed, it was late on a friday night, do i really want to be cycling rnd hyde park? or do i want to be in a pub?

    thought the race would have been much better without those two drops, but thats just my humble opnion....

    still had a good laugh thou and would do it again

    hmm.. i really wanted to come to this one but i had to work in manchester, looking at the route though i'm glad i missed it. theres no way i could have raced that route what with my shoulder/beer belly/fags&boozehabit. can't someone organise a pussy-cat? for us, um, pussys?

    and good luck to Kryz with the shoulder. it takes a while to heal, but on the upside you get to upgrade to a faster lighter aftermarket collarbone;

    That alleycat sounds like a good fun...
    well done Nhatt and Xander and whomever take a part and congrats.
    Shame I missed it. Just reading about it in Madrid with Pedro...the spanish one.

    See you soon

    I'm glad it was a good time and a little bummed I couldn't make it. Tonight I will be attending a social event with a bunch of lawyers trying to hide my contempt that they can't kill two kegs of free beer even with a bike messengers help. It's a sad thing to see.Have fun, don't get hurt.
    Love,
    Kirk
