Hi guys, Is there room for one more newbie roadie? I'm based in Southampton so would be doing the Winchester-> London bit.

Anyone going to be travelling to Waterloo or Clapham junction after finishing in Croydon?

Yep - room for another one. You have a PM.
I'm sure there'll be one or two heading into central London.

I thought everyone was heading to Central Londres! I guess it is time to look at the route...ah, maybe later.

As I can see teef is on the ride, I dont think you all need me to guide you out, but if you do, please let me know.....

Is there a GPS of the return lurking anywhere, ta?

From Croydon? Just head North buddy... no Garmin tomfoolery needed for that...

I can't make this one chaps but may the tailwind be with you!

Is that how you directed our treasured incoming guests toward the Olympics, Mr GamesMaker? I'm impressed!
Croydon? - I'll be asleep by the roadside long before then.

Here you go Teef.

From Croydon to central London is a simple as, well, a simple thing. I can direct you, but there are others going back to central London too.

No worries Davy. We'll find our own kebab shop. See you tomorrow.

Indeed it was. The general gist was to point in the approximate location in the full belief there will be another dozen GM's on the route to correct the direction. Just smile and point!
