Ooh - two fixed riders already. That's tempting. Except that I have to ride back too. I've never done 200 on fixed. Tell me it's a bad idea....
Hmm. Now tempted to try on my SS. Someone tell me it won't work and I'll have to walkthethoseshortsharpswhichwon'tbegood
I'm now out unfortunately. 3rd is now my last day in my current job so I'll be having a bit of a do.
Travelling to Dieppe then? Be careful, as your carer @ianmac62 will be on the ride.I'm now out unfortunately. 3rd is now my last day in my current job so I'll be having a bit of a do.
Couldn't we leave a bit earlier?
Leave London Fields earlier you mean? That would be a problem for me- I'm on the usual Friday night work-train up routine, and Hackney's a bit further out from Waterloo. I'll be doing well to get there before 11.45 (and if I have to get the later services into London Bridge, it'll be after midnight). Yes, I know the route and I could catch up....but.....Couldn't we leave a bit earlier?
Alex,
The last (only) time we did the battery powered version we arrived in Dunwich at around 9-ish / 10-ish - more like 10-ish
We had been giving it some beans, overnight - no slacking.
My guess is that this ride, given its size, and capacity of current participants, will arrive in Dunwich between 11:00 & 12:00.
An Ipswich train, 2 hrs later wouldn't seem too silly....
I have a friend who's like to do this as well. She's done 100km, but no further. She's a good strong rider. That 100km was in horrendous conditions, so I think she has what it takes.
Any estimates on the ETA at Dunwich? My normal route home form Dunwich is to ride to Ipswich via a quiet rural route, so I'm trying to guess what time train to book onto for the return ride.
I usually book a 3pm train and have plenty of time in hand for a departure time of around 11am.
