Cyclewizz Posted November 14, 2019 Share Parking was as per normal - I show my Virgin Active card and the car guards let me in at the Virgin parking. I collected 12 numbers, of which 6 were delivered unless than a minute - while the others took more than 20 minutes. Had to do a reseeding for a tandem, and prove that they used the wrong event/time. No payment for the reseed, as the combined time for both was below the qualifying time to get into the group. The expo was okay - currently not in the market for much, so no need to browse much. Oakley lost out on sales, as there wasn’t anyone at the stand when I got there. I needed replacement rubber parts for my current pair (nose/bridge as well as on the arms). I usually buy two of each, so that if I lose one nose piece of it perishes, like the arm covers, then I have the spare available. Paid for three pairs of Versus socks, 2 for me, and 2 for my girls (the 4th pair was free). I've also done that Virgin trick but normally I park in the shopping center parking and walk. Did you remember to get my number ?(your house is a lot closer than the Dome ?) Frosty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted November 14, 2019 Share Usually go Thu AM but went PM today and was much better, Malibonge off ramp was a breeze contrasted to previous years. Parked at VA and walked straight to number collection with no queue. Quick browse walk through expo, bought 2 Gatorskins marked down on special at Cyclelab, Versus socks and gels and was out within 20min.

Vetplant Posted November 15, 2019 Share Weather forecast for SundayI'm happy with that, very close to a perfect day out, we always knew the wind would be from the front on the highway, it always is. To the guys in B-batch: I am willing to form a rolling echelon in the crosswind on the M1 with guys willing to work, it seems to be the easiest way to make progress. Better than being pummeled in the gutter... 475 and Notahillagain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
