FNRttC London to BOGNOR REGIS (okay, Felpham) - 1st September 2017

[kimble]

As stated above, shouldn't be an issue, as during the strikes, most trains still run anyway and in any event, you'll be getting a train on Saturday 2nd September which isn't a strike day.

That's what I wanted to hear!

*books trains*

I'd have loved to have done this. Sadly, work beckons.

We go down that way quite a lot, my kids love Church Farm in Pagham. I wouldn't have minded popping over to the Pagham Beach Cafe for some fish and chips, and lose a few quid on the vintage amusements across the way.

I wonder what the policy of The Crab and Lobster at Sidlesham Quay is toward sweaty lycra wearers?

Not like!

Well, the bad news is that the halfway stop for Bognor won't be able to compete with the spread laid on at Strood for the Whitstable ride.

On the plus side, I reckon the Lobster Pot breakfast is better. For my well earned Big Breakfast after doing the recce last night, the sausages and bacon were heavenly. And I reckon they use cream to make the scrambled eggs. Yum. (Vegetarian breakfast options are available including soy milk).

There'll be an email update in the next day or so.

Is it The Cabin or The Edifice?

 

[Flying Dodo]

The Cabin.

I'm going, I like Felpham, it's near Bognor

 

[StuAff]

Sign we pass- or at least have passed- en route says 'Welcome to Felpham and Bognor Regis'. Which, IMHO, smacks of inferiority complex. Felpham is not 'near' Bognor it's in it. A locality/district, not a town or village....It could be worse, there used to be a Southsea Town Council. You know, that Southsea that's on the same four mile by five island I live on, but somehow separate from Portsmouth? Yeah, right.....

 

[sagefly]

That's me told, I like Felpham within Bognor!

 

[StuAff]

It is a bit like how Hove is part of Brighton.

Oh yes, the Hove lot is rather chippy about not being in Brighton aren't they...

 

[sagefly]

I understand you say Hove Actually....

 

[sagefly]

I signed up, I can be a way marker or tec

 

[SandySnake]

Signed up. looking forward to this ride and hoping the Gurkha bridge route has improved after last year's recce ride where the nettles were gigantic and the path was a little muddy

 

[Flying Dodo]

The above will be covered in an email, probably going out tomorrow!

The quick answer is - it's not a problem.
