FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast - Burnham-on-Crouch 24th May

[ceepeebee]

Not only but coping with Injured and Shocked Favourite Blonde and not to mention Working.

I've got to say, this working lark is not good for the relaxing and riding the bike, damn you, need for money.

Right, before this ride list closes, I'm going to put myself down for this one. I think this means renewing my CTC associate membership but I gather after a visit to the FNRttC blog all this will become clear and an email to DZ will set it in stone. That fact that I'll be just back from a week in the company of the best cook I know may necessitate using the lightest bike I own.

The Google Maps thing's fine for displaying the route (and as all the regulars know, route subject to change on the night anyway), but if one actually wants to use it on a GPS, it's absolutely useless because there's no way of getting a file downloaded (there is a third-party browser plugin that enables downloads, whether it works or not...pass). All the major route mapping sites have their pros and cons, but ridewithgps.com is probably the best overall for ease of use, download options and so on.

I'm still trying to work out which one is me ...

He's been even busier than usual, working, a Belgian frolic and an upcoming Nomandy recce. Patience.

Just registered for this and am considering my first ride back home. Will anybody be heading back in a North London (Barnet) direction?

I have no doubt. I appreciate that the Google stuff is fine for showing the probable route, it's just everything else that it sucks at. And if/when you get a GPS of your own, you'll be wanting the everything else.

 

[Wobblers]

Have you tried looking in a mirror?

Where would we be without your ever helpful advice?

I am going to be riding back to north east london, Woodford Green to be more specific.

Basically I will be more or less retracing our ride back to Brentwood before cutting accross country to WG. It is probably about 45 miles back home for me and a pretty good ride, mostly in the countryside. I guess from WG on to Barnet it is a bit more urban and probably another 10-15 miles or so.

Anyway I'd be more than happy for the company if that suited you

 

[JohnTCC]

I am also riding back to Brentwood if you want company
