Happy Birthday to Crapi Chris!

All of the Crapiwheelers wished one of our founder members Chris a very happy 50th birthday on the 30th of November 2013.. This is the cake his family got for him. Can you tell who is who?

Let's.....Off Road!

Extreme measures required to avoid Conwy Council's risible attempts to "resurface" a road!

End of ride cafe stop at Maison de Patron - 9th June 2013

Le Patron relaxes with a well earned brew after safely sheperding the two yellow cardigans back to base.

Cooked!

Ronnie asks the boys how they're feeling at the half way mark. "Great" replies Lantern, "but I've gone blind in one eye and my hands are stuck together. "Not sure I'll make it back to the car but my tan's coming on a treat" replies Coppi.

Mont Ventoux

Although over 20 miles away, the summit tower of Ventoux looks remarkably close at sunset
