Sat ride to Ockham bites

Very cold ride today, but still a good turnout. People starting to think about training now, so the fast group went fast, with Simon on the front for the first half. Then Steve took over and powered along till he blew, Nick then flew past and stayed on the front all round the extra circuit to the tea stop! Alex stayed in the fast group looking very comfortable and overtook most riders on the steep hills ! More people wearing team kit which is good to see as it makes us look semi pro.

    Some of those who "blew" were on fixed gear with the rev counter on the red line! :-)

    For a bit of fun, here's my first attempt at using mymaps in google maps which shows the route. I can see that this could be useful for plotting the local courses/training routes/CTC rides.
