Any rough idea of numbers on the ride ? as looking to get enough cakes don't want to go cutting them in half......it's not how I Roll

Hope to still be coming along. Working on a cunning logistics plan.
@Salty seadog @User21629 and any others....

Here you go

Nice flat country side for the first 34 miles then you have to climb the ridge. Then once at the top it's downhill/flat for 22 miles all the way to HPC

Busy weekend will try the ride another time but thought "Cake Support" would be welcomed.

I'm hoping to come. Hope weather is like today!

ETA in Crawley is 10.10. Might people be stopping for coffee at Affogato, as we have done previously? It would make a good rendezvous point.

That was a good find. Large and airy with decent grub.
