Tuesday Night Ride Club '09

probably not gina....we try to do fortnightly but sam will announce it on wednesday here. looks tough but not as tough as surrey and those elevation graphs always look ridiculous. see you tomorrow xx

good! would like to do it but cant make it next week.
I know a few hills in kent, but only geared so far...
see you tom...

tim :)

weathers looking good for tonight. See you all at the station!

the kent ride is awesome mike. i don't know how much of its part of the Canterbury ride... SAM?

About 6.3 miles, young Ved. And 3.1 of those are your favourite part. It's not that bad a climb, it just goes on for a bit. TBH, this hill is probably easier riding it fixed if you can get yourself into a good tempo. And none of the others are impossible riding fixed.

Unfortunately due to time/mileage restraints, I can't quite get us far south-east enough to savour the apple orchards and wheat fields that featured during the Canterbury ride.

Have a good ride tonight. If it's like last night it'll be pretty cold once the sun's gone down.

Yeah, looks like May 5th but want James to get his Chiltern ride out of the way first before announcing the next one :0)

Alright...alright
Stop pushing at the back will ya.
Jeeesshh. Some people!!!

Alright...alright

looking forward to some highbeam action Ved. and glad you didn't bail.

i was thinking of bailing too just so we can keep the tradition going. but have been saved with a bail via text. phew!

My puny cateye is bringing on major TORCH envy. Its the 19:27 train that we are shooting for right?

Shoots - what are the vital stats dude? Train times etc, meeting point etc. Wake up amigo!

Sorry your Vedness... ya know... just actually DOING some work.
I refer you to Tim's earlier post :

Dep.Marylebone train time 19:27 £9,
35 minutes journey time to arrive Amersham 20:02
we ride
we laugh
we get picked on / up by local types
we return, 34miles later to our start point, triumphant
aiming for the 22.56 return train from Amersham arrive Marylebone 23.35
miss this one and it means an extra 6 miles to Beaconsfield for the last train at 23.30.
