Let's offroad / mountain bike / mtb / ride dirt

Sorry ImMe - I'm going through a lazy phase this weekend.

Tommy - when are you free to bivvy the south down way?
Myself and Objet were talking about this yesterday, hows your diary looking?
Also: sat / Sun or could we take one weekday off...?

Prav you skanky bitch - are you trying to edge me out of the ginger twosome that was already planned?

No point doing it until April or May at the earliest. Short days and colder temps don't make for a fun combination when you're trying to do 100 miles offroad in two days. We'd have to take loads of extra kit which would just make it much harder (and more expensive) and the short days would just add to the suffering.

I still want to do a day into night ride on the north downs so why we don't we do that first? Ride a bunch of trails during the day, take some lights and keep riding in the dark, then bivi somewhere nice before coming back to London the next day after a singletrack breakfast!
