Sat 04/07/09 Tour of Hampshire from London Mark II
Folks, after really enjoying Peters ride, and making promises re my wife doing a cake stop, I was wondering about interest in trying this again later in the year. Maybe something along the lines of:-
Leg 1 - Staines to MacB's for breakfast
Leg 2 - MacB's to pub stop for light lunch
Leg 3 - Pub stop back to MacB's for high tea
Leg 4 - MacB's back to London for mucho beers/kebabs/curry(followed by MacB and bike staggering on to last train home)
These legs are all around the 25 mile mark(22-28 is the range) and it would give extra stops/rest/replenishment compared to last week(easier for the likes of me). I'd get up to the start point by train/car but folks could join the ride at any point they felt like. I'm guessing at about 7 hours saddle timeand 3 hours break time. this would mean back in London for about 1900-2000 for a beer.
If this seems like a reasonable idea then we just need to agree upon a date. Not quite sure how the calendar system works so all input appreciated.
