  • Let me know what you think of the 29th August, anyway, and I'll start a thread if everybody thinks that's good.

    Shit - I can't make the 29th as it is a friends wedding that day...

    Would love to do it again though. 5th of Sept is clear. Anyone?

  • Are you encouraging doping?

    No, I occasionally lead rides of convicted drugs offenders down Reigate Hill so that they can experience a buzz without drugs. I did one the week-end just gone. I generally pick the riders up on Internet forums.

    it all makes sense now...

    Hope the drugs don't get trashed.

  • Was a great ride, thanks for everyone involved. Like many other people it was my first long ride and night ride, and I wasn't sure what to expect but had an amazing time, and would definitely do it again - one day I'll conquer Ditchling Beacon.

    Did anyone else's shoulders ache afterwards? Is that just the result of a long ride on straight bars or does it mean my bicycle might be the wrong size?

    Ditchling would make you ache all over if you rode it fixed as you need to pull the handlebars harder.

  • 29 Aug works for me. Stick it in the calendar! Hooray for night rides!

  • 29th is in my calendar. It'll make up for my desperate no show this time round. Gutted. Was called in to work Sat and Sunday and including a late session on Saturday waiting for a satellite feed.
    Photos/stories look awesome, though I'd have to agree (even though I wasn't there!) that it'd be a 10pm start ftw.
    I used to do Brighton rides on my own overnight quite a lot last summer and always started that bit earlier in the evening at a slow pace to make sure I got a few hours kip on the beach before the sun really came out.

    August could be a good one - I'm planning on cycling to dartmoor with a mate for some climbing for the ten days starting 17th, then Brighton the following weekend. Ace.

  • Who's who from left to right?

    I am 4th from the right with the green and cream stripes on the Bianchi

  • This might help put names to faces...

  • would be good if every fourth or fifth person copied the picture too otherwise it'll get lost in time and we'll probably end up getting randomengers adding their name to the list!
