Beautiful afternoon in SE London - so I gave myself permission to have the afternoon off and tootled into Kent. Similar ride to the one I did on Saturday, but just sooo much nicer in the sunshine - faster too...

I had been thinking about checking out some routes through St Mary Cray, but a fellow cyclist and Dad at my son's school warned me off. Apparently the last time he rode out that way some oik in a passing car leant out of the window and pushed him into the hedge - other of his friends have had similar experiences. That kind of thing scares the willies out of me - anyone here had bad experiences round that way?
Nice to be able to get a couple of cat 4 climbs into a sub 50 mile ride from home. Has anyone got any other loops in the vicinity of my ride that have good/challenging climbs?
