It's the Three Pimples ride that John Mullineaux devised, mixing bridleways, byways and road sections and was my first proper ride on the cross bike since February. We had a decent ride with a couple of brake testing moments, including one when descending at speed down the hill from Downe towards Cudham and discovering a bin lorry blocking the entire road around a blind bend. The route featured a bit more road riding than I was expecting but the off road sections were technical in places and good practice for the cross season ahead.
Not strictly a weekend ride, but Wednesday is the midweek weekend, but hyperbole and I did this ride today;
