Don't get too excited. They're just cardboard screens moreso than a proper booth.

Bunch of riders at a house party on Kingsland rd last night, doing trackstands in the hallway. Recognised one of you from polo ages ago but was far too hammered to have a decent conversation so gave up. Anyway, HI!

Slamm riding down Old Street, pedalling like crazy - guess he was on his polo bike

Then MA3K, velocity boy and the others who were on the long way to Polo ride just off Smithfield

I was on my way to work. Gutted.

Might have been the speed that I was going just made him look fast. Or the tears of shame that were stinging my eyes as I rode away from both polo and the Sunday ride...

Probably the second one, to be honest

it's not so bad.
at least you were riding, even if it was to work.

I had to do work stuff this afternoon, so could only do the richmond lap.

to make it worthwhile I went as fast as I could all the way home.
