So what were you all up to then?
Heard Kit came 21st in the Prem Calendar up at Richmond - what's the story?
10 of us rode the Richmond 5 Dales sportif on Saturday. Chris and Anthony pushed on for a "time" (how did you get on?) while the rest of us rode it as a clubrun. A couple of mechanicals along the way and finished in just over 8 hours (although less than 7 hours spent riding; where did that extra time go?) Cracking route (Stang, Tan Hill, Swaledale Head, Mallerstang, Fleets Moss, Park Rash). Top hard man points go to Ian Hagyard who rode it all, with no apparent melodrama, with a bottom gear of 39x25 (he thinks it's that ratio; he's not counted!)
