[quote]Who is that in full FDJ summer kit? Full on white no less


I didn't recognise anyone wearing kit like that, with blingy white shoes as well :shock:

As the song goes "Didn't we have a lovely time the day we went to Brighton"..... Great, fantastic and other adverbs describe the ride for me. Thanks lads and Tamar for a truly memorable trundle to the coast.
Poor old Ant though, that lip looked like it would swell up although managed to stem the blood fountain - Huw where were you?

Variation on the route - turning right at the top of Turners, then left down a tiny lane to Ardingly - loverrrrrly although some will never learn, thinking they "knew" were we were going, steamed along and had to be recalled.

Bit blowy off the top of Ditchling and quick descent, but didn't have a computer so don't know my speed.

Was gutted that I had to turn off, but saw a very nice house (just down the road from Broadbridge Heath (sorted :wink: )

However much you wipe your footwear on grass verges or kerbstones, 'tis a scientifically proven fact that the only material which successfully and completely removes dog poo is living room carpet :roll: .

Reminds me of my friend's (gritty, northern) grandfather's remark on making bread: "Eee, I love kneading dough, me - gets yer 'ands lovely and clean" :shock:
