10.02.13. 20.50 miles, average speed 11.5, max speed 21.50mph in 1.44hrs.
The weather wasnt looking brilliant but I saw on Cycle Chat that TJ Alexander was heading for HPC which was a great incentive to shift myself!
I arrived at 9.35, the Cavalry rode by and we were so busy chatting that we were still there at 10am when Topcat1 turned up!

We headed through
Hyde Park to Regents Park (this is familiar, I thought!) and headed to
the giraffes who were being fed so they were out of their house! Woop
Woop!
A lap of the Outer Circle followed by a lap of the Inner Circle (which turned out to be two as TJ and I missed the turning!) then a lovely hour or so in The Honest Sausage Cafe who confirmed that they no longer do vegetarian sausages. We sat and chatted over teas, coffees and cake, oblivious to the rain or rather sleet falling from the skies.
After a McP, Topcat1 headed for
home and TJ and I went to Look Mum No Hands. Despite being riddled with
gears no one batted an eyelid as we arrived! Cappuccinos and mushrooms
on toast in a packed space but the atmosphere is very relaxed and an
uber cool place to be. Not exactly cheap - £5.60 for a tea and a decaf
cappuccino!
However, we had a great chat about all sorts of things - all things June (wooohoooooooooo!!!!),Hebden Bridge (I started that because ColinJ often mentions that on Cycle Chat and it sounds pretty - hilly but pretty!) , Woodrups (Hello Vernon!), Penines, TFL and all sorts of things. TJ should be in charge of both the TFL and the NHS. He makes sense.
We left as the skies stop drizzing and headed home, parting at Victoria.
A lovely way to spend the day - thank you chaps. Next week I am hoping Evey Allsopp will be there - although I may not be able to keep up with her.
