TNRC 28/07/2009 - "The Way To People's Beds Is Via Their Herts (or "You're Welwyn There") Ride"
FYI, [ame="http://www.bikely.com/maps/bike-path/TNRC-Welwyn-Garden-City"]the
%22%5Dthe route is here[/ame], give or take, going anticlockwise. It was 40 miles on 69" fixed in 2h02 for the reccy, but should be far more pleasant and sociable around the 2h30 mark :)Train departs Kings X @ 7.18pm (via Finsbury Park) // £10 Return // 40 Miles Fast & Rolling
ADDITIONAL TRAIN INFO:
The train will most likely leave from platform 9b. This is one of a few 'extra' platforms, tucked away through an entrance half-way up the left side of platform 8.
Facing the direction of travel, the doors open at Finsbury Park on the left, but all stations thereafter open on the right (so shift bikes at that point). On the return journey, all doors open on the left.
The 7.18pm train arrives in WGC @ 7.46pm. The 7.36pm train arrives 11 minutes later.
Return trains @ 9.58pm, 10.27pm, 10.30pm, 10.50pm (the last realistic train for Sam's 11.50pm connection), 11pm, 11.32pm, 12.09am.
