Even the young top-of-their-game cyclists struggled to make 17.5 mph today Ryan, what was why I was happy!

Well with your experience and go faster hi Vis orange top i thought you would ace it. As long as your happy because you tried your best I'm happy, if I'm honest I'd survive half a mile downhill and give up and have a fag

Ahh, but I was in a blue top today - maybe the reason...

Well done Jim, the sponsorship of £0.50 per tenth of a mile over 15mph works out at a fiver which I will double as a hot weather subsidy!! Over to you Ryan! :-D

I'll match that tenner Mick, it was a very hot day today certainly hotter than Saturday. As being ginger I nearly turned to ash today in the midday sun! So nicely done Jim.

When I found that it is a facebook site, I immediately withdrew! I'll give the cash to Jim and leave it to him to pay it in!! No way would I put any details on there! :-D

If Jim is still doing the stickers, that took me 3 weeks to get!!!! Can I add the 12.50 due to gift aid etc to the very slow sticker man?? And then he passes it on? Hopefully quicker than the stickers....

That's worrying about the stickers Ryan, I always dispatch as soon as I get the order and that would definitely be the case with you...

Thanks for the donation :)

Clearly an over exaggeration on my part, a watched kettle never boils.

Hello Cyclists,
Never mind "Route 66" Route 68 aka "The Pennine Cycleway" is the finest long distance cycle trail in the United Kingdom. So much so that back in May 2020, when getting on your actual bike was difficult, the whole thing was done and documented on the FCF on a couple of virtual bikes...
I would say its an interesting and informative thread, give it a flick through see what you think.
