In an uncharacteristic fit of organisation I did a recce of the route tonight. Apparently Wednesday is pie and a pint night (for £7.95) at the pub. I will probably have a pint and some crisps because I have a questionable interpretation of a healthy balanced diet, but anyone up for a pie is very welcome. But! The kitchen closes at 8.30 so if we have any mechanicals/delays we might be cutting it a bit fine. We can always send 6pt ahead with food orders if it's looking iffy, though.
Here's the route:

It's a bit draggy and not very scenic to Chislehurst but gets rural fairly quickly after that and there's an ace spinny bit down to Shoreham after Chelsfield. Starhill is a little unpleasant but we'll be fuelled by that point and it's the last hill (and the only one on the whole route of note). After that it's a sweep down the A21 all the way back to Catford. Easy.
