Cheshunt cheese sandwich

30 miles, some tarmac trails through the Lea Valley to start, then Hertfordshire lanes with a couple of short but refreshingly sharp climbs. There's a distinct whiff of Toblerone at times.

Train out Liverpool St 19:11 arrives Cheshunt 19:34 (calls at Tottenham Hale)
Return trains are pretty frequent, last one 00:11

You can use Oyster to get to Cheshunt (it's zone 8, I think the daily cap is £13.10). Although groupsave works out at £22.20 for 3.

I'll probably be riding out, so if anyone's taking the train you'll have to self-organise.

Cheers for organising. I’ll be on the seven eleven out. Choo choo!

I'm in. Still debating whether to ride bike or train. Looks like there will be plenty of flapjacks to go round @rhowe. There will be flapjacks, won't there?

I'll be on the train, I have a railcard so I'm happy to sort myself out or group together

Sun's shining and work is under control so I'm riding out. Anyone know how nice the lea river path from Stoke Newington/Springfield Park to Cheshunt is?

It's OK - tarmac from Marksfield Park to Pickett's Lock, then gravelly

good luck and godspeed

Looks like I'll be getting the train actually - work is dragging on

good luck and godspeed

and remember, do NOT engage that bloke in the pub in conversation (even if it is about bikes) #noescape

You clearly haven't recovered

@rhowe @LobsterShorts train is platform 4. Have oystered.

Hope you’re both a-ok

I'm fine, sat at cheshunt having a sandwich. See you soon hopefully.

What sort of sandwich?

A baguette really. Spicy chicken and lettuce. Cheap and tastes it.

Dibs lettuce if you consider splitting.

Is the chicken NJS? Will you post? If so dibs.

@Rod_Munch I'm afraid we failed

Oh god, are you trapped?? Somebody send help!

We've had all the stats on Froome.

All with cheshunt's finest serenading us in the background. Thanks for the route Russ, all great bar the poo. Next time we need to up to the courage and get on the mic...PARKLIFE.

That last bit along the cycle path was better than I remembered
