Here for rides.
Date: Sat 19 January 2013
Time: 08:00
Muster Point: The bike sheds at Gatwick on NCN21 (via the Ticket Hall and Goods Lift)
Distance: 120kms all in from start to finish.
Climbing 1750m-ish give or take
Weather: Dry or light rain but not frost or freezing or biblical precipitation. Norwegian rules apply.
Elevenses: Peaslake
Lunch: Shere
Post ride carbs: Norwood Hill - The Fox Revived.
Rail Bails: Holmwood, Chilworth, Gomshall, Boxhill & Westhumble, Dorking (3 stations no less spoilt wotsits) and Betchworth
Demob Point: Ticket Hall Gatwick Airport Station
Broadly following the route of the infamous Surrey Hills Legs of Steel a winter day-ride 'mini-tour' of the Surrey Hills for the less racy rider. At a conversational pace (about 20kph moving average). A fair few single chevrons and at least one double. Lovely views. Some Audi's. Some swearing. Probably. By me anyway.
Route more or less here (Opens fine as is in bikehike but may need to have suffix changed to .gpx if you download it as a .txt file for use in another route planner)
