At Victoria, 81 miles done. Having failed to ride all the way in last time I tried, erred on the side of caution and allowed extra time to get here. An extra five or six miles but that's hardly a problem :smile:

It's a bit more complicated than that...

It was threatening to think about raining as I crossed Guildford this afternoon - hope it stayed dry for you.

Ooo errr. We might have a refusal. Mini-h not best pleased at being woken up. I'm coming anyway (to collect the car !)

On the train to Victoria.

Im at speakers corner cafe. Is this the meeting place?
No. You want the other end of Park Lane. Wellington Arch. Head South, young man.

Just back home. That was fun. Warm, dry and with a tailwind. Doesn't get much better.

BOP (Bail Out Point) 1 was passed without so much as a waver. BOP 2 also came and went, and I handed charge of mini over to Charlie at Betchworth who looked after him all the way to the Cabin Café whilst I jumped in the car and tailed the group from a distance. The prospect of a cold sandwich at the café didn't hold enough appeal though (especially when I had foolishly offered beans on toast), so we both jumped in the car and headed home where he's just ploughed through a mountain of macaroni cheese and is now on his way upstairs.

I reckon we can mark that one down as a success.

Sorry for leaving before the start but I really wasn't feeling well plus it felt like the gout in my wrist was flaring up again (the doc said to expect one last attack once i'd started taking Allopurinol). After a discussion with Beano, I felt that deciding to leave at HPC was better than finding out 40 miles down the road that I was in trouble.

Hope you all had a great ride. It was definitely the weather for it.

I failed to say that it was fantastic to be back on the road with the Fridays again. Lots of ever increasingly familiar faces, and one or two I haven't seen for a while. That was a real buzz. Thank you one and all !!

Mini is still fast asleep.
