Velosolo Club

What seems just slightly odd to me is that some people do not want live company, but do want the type offered here in a non real world of mysterious named computor driven communications.

I love company in the real world, but the reality of forums is you can dip in and out when you have a spare 5 mins, you don't need to arrange etc.
As far as cycling goes, I mostly ride solo, simply due to working shifts and riding during the week mostly.

I have a good mate in Egham who does the same he works at at Heathrow.

Not unless you live near the sports centre and have a pal that is coming down from up north on the 7th of the 12th

The Club has been busy since I last posted. We don't have a central repository of ride reports, and the vast majority of members have yet to self-identify as such, so it's impossible to know just how busy, but I'm confident winter hasn't chilled our enthusiasm for clocking up the roadtime. My personal favourite miles are city miles, which I usually do on a folder, thus also giving me automatic membership in the Folder Club (and affiliate membership with the Origami Club). I notice Boris has his own club & bikes, complete with sponsorship; am considering starting talks with an appropriately high class sponsor for us.

I sense there has been some agitation in the ether for a Club jersey, so here it is. To avoid those awkward "What colour is that?" questions, it's not available in any colours.

My bike is French, but I don't speak the lingo. Could this be why I find cycling such hard work sometimes?
I'd like a club jersey, and as it doesn't come in any colours, can I pay for it with non-denomination coins, or the sound of them being shaken in a tin?

 

[anothersam]

I'll accept the sound of bitcoins dropping into a bitcoin wallet, or Yapese rai skipping across a pond.


…After posting that I started wondering if bitcoins really do make a sound. I'll also accept the sound of silence

I never ride alone, I have my bike with me, which I talk to quite a lot. I assume this is normal.

Start to worry if the bike talks back.

[Aperitif]

Presumably the TEC name will be written in invisible ink. It's all very laconic. Put me down four one. In keeping with rains, I'll shower you with unethical money in April, first.
I like clubs, me.

 

[anothersam]

The ink will show up only when the jersey gets wet in the rain.

Welcome to the club! How did you know that was one of our motivational videos?

Where is the first club 'meet'? If you can pencil it in on one of the days I can't make it, that would be helpful.
