It's Not A Race!

You may not know it's but if you commute on a bike you will have played 'the game'.

I think I got dropped by someone from the club in Streatham this morning, I recognised the face - wafer thin and going like a train?!

Well it wasn't me as that ain't my route, but just past Brixton on the high street heading to town I was passed at speed by someone on a bike with a pair of planet x deep rim (82cm) carbon TT wheels, (I heard him first, that unique sound from disc/deep rim wheels) not your usual commuting set up. I caught up with him at the lights a few times, he was handy at the old seated track stand too.

No not me - I also fell off when track standing on Westminster Brg. the other day (much to the amusement of fellow cyclists and the van behind) so I can't claim to be good at it :oops:
