    I was inspired by the many thousands of words of PBP ride reports that just popped through my door in printed form to publish a ride report consisting of just my raw tweets, illustrated with interesting photographs.

    A year's preparation and 1200km of suffering, boiled down to 44x 144 letter text messages, coloured green for high points, red for low?

    I know some of you followed at the time, but anyway... may be entertaining :)

    Dave, in that last photo, reflected in the mirrored glass, is that Colin and Sonya ahead of you on the tandem?

    @kaputnik, yes. I rode with them for the first couple of hundred km and then at the finish. I was very pleased that they made it round.

    (In fact, I thought I saw Sonya on a single last Saturday while hanging at the showroom?)

    I've linked in a map now too.

    She often leads the ERC development rides on a Saturday morning - which is how I first met her.

    Dave, that's a really great idea and made for some jealous reading (in my mind, not in any sense of reality)

    Guess that's the real power of twitter as a microblogging platform that you can annotate with media, all the tiny bits put together can make for a fairly pacy, vital and interesting read.
