Here some pics of the medals of the last 5 Argus events + 1 CTCT event.

 

Looks like the medal design changed with the name .. :ph34r:

Pity they couldnt in some way have the medal reflect the "solidarity-ness" of the ride with a band on the ribbon or a sticker of sorts......understandably so due to the short time period between route finalization and actual race day

 

Otherwise nice to have finished :thumbup:

I'm cutting my medal in half. Was only half an argus...

Tour of the M3

 

With the wind I was relieved by the shorter ride.

I love the argus. The spectators make you feel like a pro. Shout back and they go more bos than a betty on orgasm's edge.

 

However, it did prove to me how seriously unenthused roadies are about life, joking around and most importantly, riding. I did start in 2A (fast, serious people?), but still guys, cheer your sombre souls up - you're disappointing your mothers.

Couldn't agree more on both counts.

 

The more I acknowledged the spectators, the louder they got. Even the coke stop groupies were awesome.

 

I started at 7 with the Safe Cycling Invitational group rather than 6:20ish as I wanted to be part of something special with 200 riders all showing the same message.  Awesome crowd reception.
