Weather forecast is looking good, but forecasts that far ahead are pointless. Fingers crossed for a cold, clear night.

Gutted I can't make this ride. The feeder from Angel would have been fun too.
Halloween party that I can't get out of. How's that for an excuse?

good idea.

Cold, clear and layers is my favourite riding combo. Apart from balmy summer evenings, obviously.
At this time of year the best I can hope for is the former.

anyone heading back west after the ride? I can't really think of any way to get back apart from to do it backwards after.

I will, but will branch off along High Street Ken.

And back again list?

I will try to avoid it if at all possible though, I must know some folks in east london who have beds.

Also, my housemates going to join if thats alright, he'll be on MTB but hes fitter than i and puts more miles through than me generally so wont be a problem!
