Tony replied to Claire Stagg's discussion Don't forget - Windrush London to Brighton - bank holiday Monday"Just in case of accidents without wanting to be too melodramatic or put anyone off. It's a good idea when out on a bike to carry your ID and an emergency contact number
I also find its useful in case I get age checked ;-)

we get out of London before the traffic builds up

We know the Friday sessions are popular not just for the later start but also because Audrey is an exceptionally good coach. And they will be on again after the summer.

Tony commented on paul's event 'Dulwich Parkrun Pacing + Social'"That was fun - and I think good publicity for the club so thanks Julian, Neil and Teresa for organising it as well as pace makers
Not sure I'd fancy trying to pace at Brockell Park though!

Tony replied to paul's discussion Cadence Rides this Weekend"I have to say Paul that I was less than impressed with this "pro" ride on Monday

Anyone else doing London marathon this year?
See it's getting warmer... just ready to peak with a one day heatwave on 25th April - which is usually uncomfortable..... but being as how I'll be wearing a banana suit... (I did check whether we were getting a Windrush banana suit option on the kit but apparently not) ..
I've posted the pics from today's training in case anyone has any expert advice on technique etc :)

Hi - you have signed up for the Crystal Palace Triathlon under the Windrush name.
Since this race is also the Windrush Club Championship we have asked Crystal Palace to put us all into a Club group start, i.e. we will all go off in Windrush time order for our swim. Some of you have not read our emails about this and have not ticked the box saying it is the club championship (see table on discussion forum), and therefore have not ticked the box saying you want us to start together. I will tell Crystal Palace to ignore this fact and start us all together with the other club championship clubs, UNLESS you message me stating that you would rather not start with us at the beginning of the race, but would slot in during the course of the morning according to your swim time.
Tony D, James Raffle and Julia - you have said that you wish to NOT start with Windrush. Please let me know if this is still the case.
I will message you individually about this too to make sure you all get it!!
Thanks
Laura
