Well that's sorted now - swapped dates with Auntie Helen.
I'm choosing Fleet as the start as it's accessible from Waterloo - trains running every 30 minutes. I was thinking of a 10:45 start unless everyone wants to get here earlier.
A bit lumpy around this way but I'll try to avoid the big ones. Doesn't really matter anyway as we all cycle to the pace of the slowest rider.
Here is the suggested route - 95% rural country roads (watch out for those horses ). The pub stop will be around the 25 mile mark.

Apparently cycle friendly
47 country miles - unlike the infamous Kingston one way system
There is parking at Fleet station £2.00 all day but looks a bit busy on Saturdays. There is loads more parking in the town not far away £3.00 all day.
Bailout points - this will be difficult as most of the ride will be in the middle of nowhere - I'll see what I can come up with.
One word of warning - we will have to keep together as there are numerous turns and it's very easy to get lost - I should know
Just let me know closer to the time - who can make it?
So far we (possibly) have on the ride:
Peter
Auntie Helen

Ianrauk
MacBludgeon
Stevevw
Aperitif
Radius
Davywalnuts
djtheglove
Redjedi
Pottsy
Bollo
