Discussion

I didn't honk, no. As a cyclist I find it can be annoying, so I try not to do it. I did wave but the windows in my car are quite dark and you probably wouldn't have realised what I was doing anyway.
I hope the ride went well.
I must remember to honk every time I see a cyclist in the city centre now. I hope the ride went well.
Sorry mate it was Saturday I was heading towards the church pub and if it was you you were coming from it towards airport about 11am I carried onto wilmslow hand forth Heald green and home. Did 20 miles It wasn't till you passed me I realised where I'd seen it before I was o a norco with jogging bottoms and a north face coat on ( I'm built for comfort not speed)
MissB just rang to ask me if there were PistonHeads cycling tops!
She Just exchanged pleasantries with one of you while out on horseback, said it was a rather handsome chap....I told her "Nah can't have been anyone from here, they are all ugly b
ds"
Good to hear the Jerseys are getting noticed out and about, I've yet to spot one myself.

Can you claim a spotted by proxy?
Stopped off at the esso garage in buxton today to recharge the water. Lady asked me how my trip to longnor was - we established it was another chap in the same top, who popped in to borrow a map.
The only 2 people i know that ride locally are rouleaur and steve vrs - and i'm pretty confident the former knows how to get to ngnor from 20 different directions, if his multiple ride mapper squiggle a year ago was right (the entire peak disttrict was red).. So, anyone owning up to being a cheeky bugger and browsing the road atlas?

Got spotted at Bedgebury on saturday, Was right out the back of the forest, some guy was have a mechanical following a crash, his mate spotted the top and said he didn't realise PH did them, if you are out there lurker guy (non poster, didn't seem aware of the awesome Pedal Powered forum) hi, hope your mate made it back down OK that was possibly the furthest point away from the start!

I'm a bit further west than Buxton but do venture up the Cat and Fiddle every now and again!

That would be me!
Nice day for it. I was on a 40 mile blast after work, the head wind ruined the descent from where I'd parked towards Combe. There was a bit of a tail wind on the way back though. The back roads around there are lovely. Very few cars and nice surfaces and Tetbury is usually my midpoint. Happy to stick links up to some of the routes on Garmin if you ever want any. Or I'd be happy to receive links to anything you might recommend.

Snip.
Yeh the wind normally blows the other way up there but that makes the back section of the TT a bit harder as you're on a slight incline coming back and battling the head wind!Are you on strava? I'm on the PH club so all my (slow) routes are there, we often venture around tetbury, cheddar and over the bridge around Monmouth, Tintern etc.

Not on Strava - I'm not quick enough for any of that KOM stuff (ave. speed around 17.5 mph). I use the Garmin as a bit of a training aid as much as anything, but it's nice to see where I've been since I usually make the routes up as I go along, often turning down roads I've never been down just to explore.Are you on strava?
