I did a couple of laps yesterday, it's fine apart from the main descent down to robin hood gate where there is loads of gravel on the side of the roads. I just went a few mph slower than usual on the bend and it was fine. The dust kicked up by cars is a real bitch though

I went through yesterday and it was still dusty, plus on the road from Roehampton gate towards Barnes they were doing some large scale gardening which was throwing up as kinds of dust and pollen . I don't suffer from hayfever but it was making me sneeze and cough all the same

think i'll give it a miss for a while. a good rainstorm should help wash away some of the dust.

+1, it needs some rain to settle the dust. the riding surface is generally better, but still gravelly in places out of the car tyre tracks.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
