See you there Bob - it's looking like there may be another bent on the ride.
Weather looking good.
Some final late notes:
Weather looking good.
Some late notes/reminders
Please bring two spare tubes - we want to keep moving - this ride has a
mad rhythm of its own.
No sit-down lunch stop at all -
bring sandwiches or something that counts as lunch in addition to
snacks/on-the-go fuel - you can eat this at the
traditional pause at the south end of Crawley High Street.
No formal back-marker as such on this ride (I know it sounds odd but
it's the only way to run it without
killing the ride) - if you manage to trail the first group on the first leg
to Crawley and don't get swept up by Tom
Crispin's intrepid group following behind, get yourself to the south end of
Crawley High Street where we will be
pausing a fair while to eat our butties etc.
Following the route after Croydon is very easy - just follow the loads of
temporary signs (usually blue RAC or yellow
AA I think - can't remember) the mad chuffing cars, the crowds.
Please read the safety information above.
Enjoy.
