After a reasonably 'successful' outing last year, I thought I'd whip out the Christmas Cracker again for some weekday slacker miles before heading home to eat and drink everything I can lay my hands on. I'm flexible with the date, but it will remain on a weekday.
The route will be 50 miles or so into Kent, roughly around Sevenoaks, and back into town, finishing at Crystal Palace. There is the possibility of a cider stop en-route. It is quite hilly. The roads will be filthy. North Pole lane and New Years lane are still on the route from last year but I've changed a fair bit otherwise. I'll be doing it fixed and it would be good if others did too, although as long as you don't ride like a dick, and your bike can go 50 miles, I don't really care what you ride.
Bring food/snacks, 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 - I'll update other details closer to the time.
