Freeway Bike Ride 2007 couple of youtube clips

Check the rider in yellow on the left at the 1.28m mark! I don't know who the poster is but he managed to capture me for a few seconds in the tunnel!

Also footage of a crash that occurred last week (nothing too dramatic so don't expect any blood, guts and severed limbs!)

Re Tri Bars, I believe they are officially "banned" from the Freeway Ride and the Great Bike Ride...however they don't seem to enforce the ban as I saw plenty of them at both of the above events. I think part of the reason will be that the events are full of volunteer helpers on the day who just turn a blind eye or aren't aware of the rules.
Cheers,
Gary

I still don't understand the ban on tri bars. If its street legal then how can they ban them?

Mine look like tri bars or aero bars, but are actually touring bars
Without them I have nowhere to mount the cameras.

I noticed the other day that Richard and I had exactly the same number of posts at 1951 each. Richard came to the board 6 months after me and was the #1 poster in 6 months.
Good to see you crack the 1000 Kev.

I'm wondering, with Richard being an Admin, whether he bumped his post count up by a lot.

Whatever the truth is about the post count, he definitely used the most disk space.heavymetal wrote:Thanks Mike.mikesbytes wrote:I noticed the other day that Richard and I had exactly the same number of posts at 1951 each.
