afternoon you minges, sorry I've missed the last couple of weeks (although i'm sure your average speeds were up :biggrin:), had a fair bit going on with various things and not been able to do any sat or sun mornings :sad: managed to get a couple of 20 milers in this weekend though. my fitness really isn't up to much as you can probably tell! so hoping to improve it greatly by the next time i'm struggling up a hill with you all :smile:

When i looked in to it the other week train back from Brighton to Victoria if you pre book was £5 then was gonna cycle to paddington and get the train back to Maidenhead which stops at Slough were D1 was gonna jump off would also be good for you if thats what you fancy ?

Any idea what time would leaving Brighton would be classed as a day out ? Obvs after cos & chips on the beach :thumbsup:

I've checked .... No designer clothes sales are going on that weekend :becool:
I'm in for Brighton!!!
Paul .... Bring a tow rope .... You may have to pull me along !
Mark - will you book the return train tickets to Paddington? The train back to Slough stops at West Drayton and Iver, so Paul and i can get off there.


As it's all downhill to Brighton ..... See if Phil "the hill climber" is interested :biggrin:
I have also informed Andy....

Lol good man i wont book tickets to Paddington cos weekend £10.50 cheap day return will get me Maidenhead to Paddington am then Paddington back to Maidenhead pm. Wouldnt mind pre-booking the Brighton back to London though cos not sure of the normal cost but between £5-10 seems pretty cool to me.

lol Nope have a look in to times for this brighton run please im off to play footy now will be on later. And no late home from work so didnt get to Helfrauds. Like a numpty though i realised i have Sram Apex on my commute mountain bike its a 3 cog front and 8 rear but the rear hanger is spot on level with the rear cogs so summit is deffinatly a miss. Think its time to bounce my Specailized/Boardman back to Helfrauds and get them to fix it.

We can meet at Slough or West Drayton for the train to paddington. That takes around 25 minutes, as i use it often. Then short ride over to Victoria station and catch the train out to Croydon.
I'll check timetables tommorow and see what works for us. I would imagine a 5.30am start lads to be in Croydon for the 8am start.
Gives us time prep time before the start
