^ Chris, I'll be riding fixed and I reckon a fair percentage will be. Re. the sunday ride, Bernie did mention something, somewhere about taking the A40 back, so it may not be a particularly scenic ride!
I will be rolling fixed, and I am sure at least two others will be the same.
So, for those riding to the start from Saaf London, the full route is actually nearer 19 miles, so the start will be
9am
Tooting Broadway, NOT the original time of 9:30. Opening post has been amended, but please spread the word.
The route will be as follows
Tooting Broadway
Garratt Lane
Wandsworth
Putney Bridge
Hammersmith
Shepherds Bush
A4020 Uxbridge Road
Ealing Common
Southall
West Drayton Road
West Drayton station
We will be taking a leisurely 15 mph pace, and NOT stopping at any of the above points. Work out when you think we will be at a particular destination, PM me to say where you will be, and be there 15 minutes early, and we will sweep you up on the way through.
For the Oxford posse, we will be rolling past the Fox and Hounds, Christmas Common, OX49 5HL and stopping for a quick water bottle fill and "comfort break."
I cannot give a ETA as all timings will be dependent on weather and inner tube conditions but we will post on the forum as we move into the hills.
