England : Hertfordshire Sunday Morning Cupcake ride 3 February

[TheDoctor]

Evenings!!
As I promised in another thread, I'm leading a ride on Sunday 3rd February.
Meet at Stevenage station (on the cycle path near the big billboard) at 9:45, and we'll be heading off East. The route is likely to take in Halls Green, Walkern, Benington, Watton at Stone and Datchworth for a cafe stop. Back to the station by 1 pm or so.
Suitable for road bikes, but anyone on a fixie might struggle a bit - there are hills.
Easy conversational pace, and no-one gets dropped
There's ample car parking at the station.
Anyone coming by train, aim for 1945 0945 and PM me with an ETA, please.
EDIT - Typo in the time!!

Myself and Jacqui will be there if my Parents dont decide to come up for the weekend

Can't see anything else in the calendar so as long as the snow has gone i'll see you at the station.

 

[Becs]

I will hopefully make it out again

 

[TheDoctor]

Phew! I was beginning to think this might be a somewhat lonely ride...

 

[jayonabike]

I should be up for this again.

 

[GM]

Yea! weather and work permitting looking forward to it.

 

[TheDoctor]

I'm *hoping* the current bout of snow has gone by then...

Ill throw my hat in as a "maybe", currently off the bike with a broken hand but if I'm good by then I'll come!

So it's a night ride now

Is the cafe stop somewhere where the bikes are in sight while you scoff your muffins or do you need to lock them up??

 

[mchunt]

Count me in

Well spotted!! I shall do a ninja-edit. I meant 0945, of course.

Is the cafe stop somewhere where the bikes are in sight while you scoff your muffins or do you need to lock them up??

Yes, we'll be able to see the bikes, from a yard or two away.

 

[TheDoctor]

Ssshhh!! You are not allowed to discuss about the weather anymore! Look what you've done with your last Sunday's comment: "oh, it's only going to get better from now on..".

I *was* referring to the hill.
Once we'd got to Preston there were no more nasty long uphill bits...
That's the thanks I get for sharing my teacake with you!
