2014-07-20 – Rapha Women’s 100

Sure thing. I have no idea how to get to Greenwich so this will be an exciting adventure for us both, just like the time I took you on that roundabout the houses route trying to find the bagel place on Brick Lane :-)

8:30, Brixton Ritzy?

I like adventures!

I have a route to Greenwich. Camberwell, Deptford, left just after the DLR and continue on - or something like that. I'd make it 8.15 to be on the safe side though.

Sounds good. I was looking at going down Coldharbour Lane and thence onwards to... somewhere, though I'm unconvinced by the "cycle route" on Daneville Road as the last time I was there it was in actual fact a two-lane one-way road in the opposite direction to the one Google maps and Cycle streets are both suggesting I use D:

8:15 it is!

My route is main roads all the way. Wouldn't know what to do with side roads :-).

Coldharbour Lane, Loughborough, Camberwell, right into Peckham onwards. I'll double check that my memory of my occasional ride to Plumstead via Greenwich corresponds with Google.

Didn't realize this was only a week away ! Much excited, won't bail this time, I promise ! I'll bring as many home-made flapjacks as I can fit it my pockets for you all ladies.

I think we need to sign up individually to get swag:

And reminder that we need to flood twitter / instagram with lots of pictures of epic suffering. And chips.

thanks for organising KT
done the sign up - but I ain't got strava/twitter/instagram and refuse to post my epic sufferings on fb :/

Very wise. Maybe we paint a word picture of epic suffering?

NB for those signing up, sign up on this page: http://pages.rapha.cc/womens100 instead of the actual ride page that Katy posted as Wapha have cunningly put a newsletter sign-up from on the individual ride page but not the actual, erm, ride registration form. Genius.

Thanks for organising!
I've signed up individually as well. I think. Wantz swag!

At the moment I'm feeling pretty good after the dynamo so I'm allowing myself to get excited. I can and will happily floodbsocial media with updates of our pain.

Signed up on that there site.

Have an awesome ride everyone, so gutted I can't make this! We need more laydees rides soon.

Signed up for epic suffering (and chips).

Bring a jacket. There be rain forecast for Sunday, at the minute anyway.

Epic suffering earns more kudos if rain is involved, right?

URGH! my pretty biek no has mudguards :(
is it time to buy some... gah.

or just come on daily bike if rain, more likely.

URGH! my pretty biek no has mudguards :(
is it time to buy some... gah.

Super Epic Suffering = no mudguards.

oh god no, do not want.

Slight issue - my route to Whitstable is 96km! Shall I add in a lap of Whitstable?

We can either add on a bit at the end, or do a lap of greenwich before we leave I suppose?

As long as we stravahhh from home, we're ok right?
those who live < 4 km from start point can lap greenwich....

*Makes note to put Strava app on phone (and remember to use it!).

I no smartphone/strava app but happy to lap wherever... (as long as there's icecream at the end?)

Here's a route, with bonus lap of Whitstable at the end (luckily Whitstable is really nice): http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5337784

Not too late to tag along? no have fixie, but also won't be a dick on geared either...
