Hoping this save route option will work for everyone: https://binged.it/2MNQT3D

Hmmm, don't think I'll make this, I'd the Whitstable Friday night ride on the twelfth. Riding home after will bring me to over 100 miles.

 

[Stephen Piper]

Hope to make this, work and other commitments allowing.

In the diary, but depends on FNRttC Whitstable for me or not ;-/

 

[Nigel182]

Sorry Night Shift all that weekend will do another of your days out eventually......have a good one

 

[StuAff]

Sounds like fun, but (a) Whitstable FNRttC is more likely for me, and I prefer a lie-in on Sundays after a night ride and (b) trains to your neck of the woods are a complete pain, especially on Sundays. Earliest I could get there is 10.30. Hope you get a good turn-out and have a great day Charlotte.

You should come on the Whitstable ride @Charlotte Alice Button . It's a cracker. I can say that, I'm the ride leader. LOL

Not the ride leader, fully agrees!

I have changed the date to the 5th May hoping this will be more accessible seeing as its the Bank Holiday?

 

[Stephen Piper]

Ok for 5th May.

I've been holding off on this for various reasons but it seems I will be in Kent that weekend. So assuming you are prepared to accept someone from the grim north count me in.

 

[Lavender Rose]

Oh yes! I will not be upset if your plans change obviously! I am very much planning for this ride to go ahead, I have a lovely ride planned with plenty of pubs and bakeries on the way

What is the pace?

 

[Lavender Rose]

Well it's not a sprint race, or a dawdle....it'll be a probable pace of around 11-12mph minimum Hope you are still interested?
