i won't put my name down yet but i am really hoping to make it along to this. will be a lovely ride i am sure of that.

Can't commit, but will make it if I can afford the fare back.

Group buy = cheap tickets, sure someone won't mind spotting you for train fare.

Cheers, that makes it as tempting as it needs to be :)

• beers on the train :)
  

Any ride through Kent should end with beers on the train.

Riding the last leg home from the Canterbury ride I couldn't see straight. Having no lights didn't help, mind.

alright I'm in! I'll only be in London for a month, so I should make it worth it

why does that not surprise me Pip.... and i thought I was disorganised... bah!

it takes years of training my son... one day... one daaaaaay (in my defence my sister gave me the dates, family trait)

LFGSS by the seaside. Can't wait.

you bet! i have patched up the whole in the budgie smugglers and dusted off my spade.

i won't put my name down yet but i am really hoping to make it along to this. will be a lovely ride i am sure of that.

no name no ride mate.. thems the rules

A more useful route map:
Transferred it from gmaps into bikemap.net, still cleaning up the way points for the gps:

MA3K, did you get my PM a month back about amending the route at the top of Maidstone? It would avoid traffic heading for Maidstone town centre and also having to use the A249 Detling Hill, which incidentially is an uphill dual carriageway.

Also, when using Bikemap, if you select the magnetic option before plotting, you don't have to add loads of plot points.

Cheers
Sam

Sorry Sam, got the message but had been too busy and it promptly slipped down list for attention.
I made your adjustments now.
I see what you mean with the magnetic route drawing tool but I had brought the map over from gmaps so I though I had to edit it point-buy-point, oh well live and learn.

Have a great ride, all.

Hopefully I can make this! Need a decent stretch of the legs.

It is a cracking route from MA3K, looking forward to it, although I may have to take gears for this one.

Sadly, I'm out due to unforeseen circumstances. Which is a shame as I was really looking forward to this ride, it looks like a good route and a great group of riders.

Where's the ride starting from?

I guess the place to meet up would be at the gates on the top of Greenwich Park where Charlton Way meets Blackheath Ave.

If anybody wants to meet me around Lambeth/Westminster bridge for the ride over let me know.
