Yeah, people accelerating hard when the guy in front of them pulls ove
is always bad do do. It stuffs up the rest of the bunch having to surg
all the time. Rolling over should be as smooth as possible

om...
hippy you da man ! I thank you for returning it to me. I'll never

bet wet again.

Cool! Sorry about the delay :-)


Hey no probs. No need to apologise.

I was tempted to go back to the desk and
borrow it for our post-race ride, when it
started pishing down... :-)
How was your race?
Most of the C grade field was lapped by
5 uhem "significantly stronger" riders... grr.

Yeah they were awfully strong weren't they ?

B grade got split down the middle when the rain came and a dozen or so
of us rode it out for a bunch kick, where I msut have finished a
respectable 11th !!
