Chris, what'd ya seal them with?

How much are the overshoes ye're all recommending?
Anyone recommend some good leg warmers?

Should be out again soon. Got hit by a car last week on cheddar gorge!

Marvelous composition and an excellent, if cold, ride. 


I also purchased a pair of endura overshoes and some woolie boolie socks today. I even re-sealed the cleat holes in the bottom of my shoes!

    Remarkable....the poem and the bunker. I heard whispers of this last night but my toes were too cold to care about where the queen would hang out in a nuclear event.

    This weeks Ride Report delivered mostly in the form of a poem:
     
    The forecast was for rain and cold
    The number brave depleted
    Chris, Aileen, Steve and Andy
    the only ones not defeated
     
    They headed out from the town
    Box Woods the destination
    Along the canal, across the Meadows
    Up through Bathford to Kingsdown
     
    From there off-road
    The trails soft and leafy
    The grass wet and slippy
    The knobbly tyres grippy
     
    Before Box Woods Fig Rolls
    From the Co-Op “They’re the best”
    Into the woods, lights in the trees
    UFOs, The Others or the Woodland Trolls?
     
    A group from Melksham
    It turned out to be
    How many of them?
    Just the three
     
    “Where are we?” Chris says
    Another history lesson follows
    Above the Secret Underground City*
    Below the sleepy hollow
     
    Rudloe descent
    fast and flowing
    Climb to Colerne
    Just keeps on going
     
    Along the top
    The cold beginning to bite
    Only Steve in his booties
    had warm toes tonight
     
    Bannerdown
    they barrelled down
    Through the trees
    The carpet of leafs
     
    The London Road
    Back into town
    Too cold to stop for a pint
    Their separate ways they go
    into the night
     
    In keeping with past this weeks – a link to the history lesson homework:
    http://www.burlingtonbunker.co.uk
    Chris asked if it’s possible to get access – not any more apparently, concern now over asbestos contamination.
     
    Finally, Aileen asked where’bouts for Oktoberfest results:
    http://www.timelaps.co.uk/assets/uploads/EVENTREPORT.aspx?eventid=186AshtonCourt15/10/2011
     
     
    Hopefully a few more fit next week? Or are they all ‘tucked up for the winter’ now?
     
    O/O
