Another Northampton to London ride - Sat. 12th May

[Flying Dodo]

PPS. This ride is also open to men.

Good job I'm not the jealous type.

 

[ianmac62]

Yes please, FD.

I'll ride "in reverse" - pedal from Northampton to London and then evening train back to Northampton.

My friends at London Midland have a "sale" on at the moment and I've bought an anytime single for my evening journey for £10.84.

If you visit the London Midland site you'll see a banner for "sale" which says it finishes on 7th May. This is the date they stop selling the tickets; you can travel upto 31st May. So they're selling "sale" advance tickets for the day of the ride at £3.00 (without a rail card!) for the 0845 and the 0913 services from Euston which arrive in Northampton at 1005 and 1012 respectively.

Looks like a bargain to me!

Thanks for that Ian, just booked the 0913. Looking forward to this ride again FD!!!

When i rode up last time they've put a roundabout at the crossroads with the A507 just past Millbrook and if very busy an alternate route on a cycle track.

 

[Flying Dodo]

It's fine. In fact, the new roundabout makes it easier to get across compared with before.

Chin stroked. Bargaintastic ticket for the 9.13 booked.

Moi aussi (without the chin stroking)

 

[GrumpyGregry]

I'll rock up if I may.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

roughly what time should we be back at Northampton....?

Tickety-boo booked on the 08:54.

If you mean for the start, that's 10.30. But we don't go back to Northampton - that's why it's a ride from Northampton to London.

Aha! Doh! and other exclamations.

 

[GrumpyGregry]

I'm on the 8.54 as well - no bike spaces left of the 9.13. Anyone cycling between Victoria and Euston?

yes

 

[GrumpyGregry]

That's good, as long as you know the way! I'll be arriving at Victoria at 7.58 am - does that mean I can tag along?

I know a way. Might not be 'the' way. Always happy to ride in company. (I'm winging it re the bike reservations btw)
