For those riding fixed or SS, please check the profile (Show & Elevation Profile on the above link) and select an appropriate gear. The uphill, though not steep, is fairly relentless.

Leaving at 9.30 The fast group - 2×82.85k:
Sub 3 hours out, no wee stops.
6pt reckons he could do it 19–20mph average solo so we'll be looking to improve on that as a group. I will also endeavour to teach him that his choice of unit is inferior.
People doing the fast ride one way will be frowned upon (unless they happen to carry on for a solo century warm down).
Owing to the above riders in the fast group should be prepared to get themselves to Bletchley if they fall off the back. Again self-sufficiency is key.
I'm out. Need to be back at a decent time. Gonna do a loop down south instead with some hills. Sorry for last minute change.
The meeting point for the ride is the church on Warwick Avenue.
This is the route that we are using
