Hello people,

Just recieved my very first velo. I got this one from Alan Braley and she is lovely. But I have so much to learn. I only started looking at Velos around a month ago. Now I have one. Maybe a little over my head? We will see.

I am in London and would love a meet-up. My plan over the next few weeks is to ride from Clapham Common down to batersea park. They have an in-road (not sure what they call it) inside the park which you can cycle around on all day long. It's here I plan to get up to speed with some well needed practice and hopefully not too much attention. Watching this guy on youtube riding around london the other day really gave me a chill. I did not realise you would be getting that kind of attention. I assumed the attention Velo's made were for road users and not pedestrians. I may need a stun gun if anyone touches my velo!

So, if anyone is up for a meet then please let me know. We can meet at either park and talk velos and stuff. I really could do with a fellow velonaught to give me some advise and any tips for my travels.

Wishing you all a lovely weekend,

Richard
