2013-09-07 - Sat - Ride to Reigate (AKA Mumbles in the Jungle)

The recent departure of our beloved (?!) 31trum for pastures new has left a hole in our hearts and a gap in our drinking schedule that only a trip to Reigate can fix.

Therefore I propose the first of (hopefully) many pilgrimages to the new home of the great man himself.

The proposed date is Sat 7th September 2013.
[If the weather is looking shocking there is the option to postpone until the following day or the weekend of 21/22 Sept, but for now let's stick with 7th.]

Plan:

Meet at the Coach & Horses, Brixton (home of South Beers) @ 12pm for a quick pint before a nice leisurely 30km to Reigate where we will meet Murts at The Jolly Farmers pub.

How long we stay, how inebriated we get and how the hell we get home are yet to be determined. Only time will tell...

The route is open to improvements if anyone has any. Also, if someone would like to step up to lead the ride that would be awesome :)

Can't come on the ride - I have shoulder surgery the week before and cycling will be out of the question. Will get there by train for the drinking assuming that the post-surgery drugs do not prevent me from drinking.

So much in!

I'm hoping it pisses down and you all postpone as I'll be in Exeter that weekend.

Surely Midsomer Mumbles is a better title

Hi, haven't been on any rides with you guys yet, will this be actually leisurely? I'd hate to get left behind. At least I have a geared bike in London now.

If the mountain won't come to the prophet ...

I might be in for this.
