I have tried Essex roads before and they seemed quite good my only trouble is that it's a 12-13 mile trip before I even start the club run which will be fine for rides that come back sort of hanningfiled/wickford/woodham type of way but having to add another 12.5 if the ride goes south or west of Billericay makes it tough. I can't drive to the start as we are only a 1 car householdI go out every Sunday morning with Essex roads cc from Billericay. They leave at 9am and meet up in car park at back of Iceland.
Nice one. I do not believe the average that Strava came back with. I used to manage that sort of average when I was riding regular back in 2013 and my ride on Saturday felt far slower and more painful than that. I would say it was 14-15mph at best as I really struggled on the hills. so was quite shocked.That's a pretty good average speed for someone who hasn't been out in a while.
Count me in for a ride(weather permitting).
I've been out around Southend / Leigh area having invested in winter clothing even been out when it's been around 5 degrees, loving it this year.
I'd be happy to meet up, not brave enough to rock up to a club ride on my own yet but a social sounds good.
Happy to meet up for a social however I will have stiches after a minor op so will have to wait a week a couple of weeks until they heal
I've just rejoined the Wheelers and went on their 10am ride details here https://www.strava.com/activities/467252627 (includes riding to/from approx 12 miles) you can see the speeds weren't mental at all, they are avery friendly bunch too so you don't have to be that brave either. about three or four newbies that day as well. Happy to arrange one Sunday to meet at their club house a little earlier if you want to come along so you don't have to walk in alone as to be fair I can understand why that could feel a little intimidating
