England : Kent Summer Cinque Ports Ride 6th Aug & 3rd Sept

[Hill Wimp]

Everything crossed. As always there will be a headwind but it was very gratefully received the other week when we did it.

That was rather warm

Have faith. I'm in recovery so nowhere near as fit as I was and I managed the recce.
It won't be fast we are there to enjoy.

Sorry I can't look at RideWithGPS etc from work, I've trawled through a few pages but haven't found the mileage for the actual ride Ashford - Ashford? I'll be looking at this being my Aug century but fairly determined to get a train back.

So @ianrauk @rb58 what time at Polhill on Saturday?? Quite looking forward to this one

 

[Hill Wimp]

I believe it's 52 miles Ashford-Ashford.

Perfect thank you. Ride from my house to Ashford is about 60 and a bit so easily my century.

I'm out - it'll be too long a day for me. Have fun!

Shame. I am planning on a relaxing train journey back from Ashford which shortens the day a little.

You can always get the train from Rye to Ashford which is what I am doing on the return.

Nigel has a possible excuse but you've met me several time Marmoset.

Thinking of leaving the group at Rye & heading west as far as Worthing, get the month's ton done and dusted.

I'm planning to be in the area on Saturday 6th. I'll be doing my own ride, at my own pace, on my own route, but I'll keep a lookout for people. And if I happen to find people going along at the right pace, into a headwind, well ... that would be perfick and I'll hide behind you but it's pretty unlikely.

I'm hoping to be in Camber some time between 1 and 2pm very approx, where I plan to eat some chips. And possibly a saveloy. And maybe drink a can of ginger beer.

I'll be approaching Camber along the coast from the Hythe direction via Dungeness with a pointless wiggle inland at one point. I'll be continuing from Camber to Rye, Appledore then up towards Tonbridge, on a route designed to be as flat as possible.

I may be tired and even grumpier and less communicative than usual.
