Hi All,
Sunday 3rd July. I am planning on a ride down to Brighton for July's qualifying ride. I did mention that it would be a good idea to have a meet up in Brighton with Stuart and RR seeing as they are both in the same neck of the woods. I have tagged those that are in the Imperial Century Challenge ride (some of our Oop Norf chums probably won't be able to make it) but it's open to all who fancy joining us. Either one way to Brighton or for the ride down and the return journey also.
So plan is, to leave Purley (Tescos) just outside of Croydon at 8.30am to be in Brighton for around about Noon-12.30pm (Brighton is 43miles from Purley). The plan is a non stop ride except to regroup at junctions if we get split up, need a quick on the go snack or have a faff if you are that way inclined. I'm not looking at a fast ride, but not wanting to hang about either as we will be riding back and so want to get back home at a decent hour.
Lunch will be at the Fish and Chip place on the beach next to the Big Wheel thingy.
From Purley it's about 43 miles. Straight down the A23 to and around Gatwick, through Crawley, to Pease Pottage, Handcross down through Staplecross to Cuckfield, Ansty, Burgess Hill and Hassocks. We can decide on the day whether to tackle Ditchling or do the less strenuous version of over Clayton Hill and using the bike lane next to the A23.
