We saw a slack handful out riding today. Not as many as I'd normally see out on a nice Sunday. Maybe people are still having families over and whatnot.
To risk thread hijack:Worth a visit?
Whose username is "massive raspberry"?
Was very tempted to set up a new account in that name then, just to post once, but refrained.
I'm in Sutton, probably 5 miles from hereTo risk thread hijack:
I think it's worth a trip if, like you, are near it. Two aisles of clothing, a few light etc. better than cycle surgery that used to be on the other side of the Purley Way but thought it was still a small selection of gear. General climbing, hiking, running etc there appeared to be a decent stock.
I would go again as it's only 13 miles from me but I suspect I would order online.
Yeah, pass through your town every morning going to work. Go via Beddington Park and the Waddon trail and it's quite a pleasant ride for you!I'm in Sutton, probably 5 miles from here
I'd just take the A232 to be honest!Yeah, pass through your town every morning going to work. Go via Beddington Park and the Waddon trail and it's quite a pleasant ride for you!
I've just cycled a 6.5 mile round trip in one of the prettiest parts of the Low Weald of Kent - usually swarming with leisure cyclists... well there were very few cars but apart from one young lad in a hoodie trying out his new bike on the pavement in Headcorn, there were NO cyclists on the road! I met a horse, a trotting cart, people with dogs... Where are you all? This has never happened before, especially on a cold sunny dry day which is also a Sunday...
I had a lovely ride though!
Not icy here.You must be a leisure part time cyclist cos all the proper ones were indoors in the warm enjoying whats left of our holidays. Just sayin'. Back to work tomorrow though, resumption of my 35-40 mile commute EVERYDAY not just on holidays or on a sunday morning although I do work weekends as well which I ride to an and from work as well. Generally see the clubbers out for their 9am rides on a sunday, although this sunday I believe they cancelled because it was too icy > Light weights.
Anyway I am off to replace my bike's bottom bracket.
True, true although that rise up to the B272 turn off and me have...issuesI'd just take the A232 to be honest!
Just passed Beddington Park up to the lights on the A232. I don't know why but that rise always has me swearing.I don't know where you mean, I'm rubbish with road numbers. It's a bit undulating but hardly hilly
I know it well... a bit parky today I imagine!South Kent (Sandgate) coastal path was almost devoid of bikes, seems a 20mph, 3 deg C breeze is too much for many... pah!
