Warmth, food, alcohol, family tales of the fanciful ways you shat and vomited that you are too young and remember. Perhaps you will be procrastinating behind a desk on the 23rd. If this is too much for you to endure then perhaps you may be tempted by a bike ride?
I've devised a 'festive' route of 50ish miles taking in the moss and leaf clad lanes of Kent and Surrey, finishing at Crystal Palace.
You want to visit Santa and his elves? A bit beyond your budget? Perhaps you could settle for North Pole lane.
Anticipating a hangover on new years eve? You can mull it over while traversing New Years lane.
There are more...
A pub stop may feature. If you fancy gurning, hoarfing, and spluttering your way through this splendid countryside then you should join us.
The route takes in a few hills, but the scenery is stunning. And what goes up must come down - there are some exhilarating descents. All are welcome, on whatever steed you choose, so long as it will get you home, and you don't mind covering it in road filth.
Bring food, good lights, puncture repair supplies. Wrap up warm. Check your bike before you leave, etc.
We'll start at St. Mary Cray at 10:00 - the 9:37 from Victoria will get you there on time.
