Last minute rides

Which app you using and how did it go?

I was using Co-Rider with a GPX downloaded from Bikely. I decided to do an Epping forest loop instead, incase it all went wrong. The first half went well, especially once I was out into the country, it's a bit sketchy when there are loads of turn-off choices. It also doesn't really recognize roundabouts, so instead of "go straight on" you'll get "turn a slight left, then a slight left".

About half way through the ride, around Abridge, it just stopped talking. I checked the map a couple of times after that and I seemed to be on-route but it just didn't say anything. I suspect I'll have to delete and re-install it every time I want to load a new route as well. Not really recommended but I reckon I'll persevere a bit longer.

going to head up to herts/cambs for a 25-30 mileish pootle.
train up to stansted mountfichet, then NCN11 to cambridge. train back. (I've got stuff to do in camb so would be a bit later getting back)
if anyone fancies catching the last of the weekend light - liverpool st train in 1 hour (14.53). bring lights.

Next saturday, Brighton.
Anyone is welcome, pace will be calm.

Tomorrow morning - 70 miles from Archway into Kent and back (geared). Leaving about 8:30 and should be back around 1:30. [ame="http://ridewithgps.com/routes/2229513"]70

25 miles in the pissing rain, most of the Ride East route and a bit more

Anyone going anywhere nice this morning? My brother drank too much wine and is fucking bailing on me again.

I'm going to do 40ish miles around North London tomorrow. Setting off from Essex Road and going out through highgate, Will probably leave about 10am and not go particularly quickly. Anyone is welcome to join.

Looking to head to Richmond park on Friday for laps, pace should be pretty quick* either morning or late afternoon/evening.

*I'll be pushing as hard as I can to try and see how quickly I can manage 3 laps.

^might see you cause we're meant to be camping there

lol listen for my wom.

Will do

I've got the whole of this coming week off (though unfortunately won't be back in town in time to join you tomorrow, sumo), if anyone fancies going anywhere exciting. Pace will be crap, the conversation even more so, but I might make a cake or something.

Going to do the RideLondon100 route on Fri 19 April. I'm setting out from N12 about 9am and will pick it up in Hyde Park 9.30am approx.

I'm keen to join you for the RideLondon100 route ShannonBall if you'll have me. I'm out west in Ealing so could join you as you're going through Richmond Park?

Nice ride today with RhysC. Here I am on Box Hill...

Tomorrow, somewhere, not too fast...

Leaving between 11-1

this morning - south london? 40-50-60 miles?

I have tomorrow (Weds) off work so will be going a loop around Epping Forest, about 40 - 50 miles depending on how lost I get. It's probably going to rain the whole time but fuck it. Anyone is welcome to join me.

Howdy- would be up for a ride- where/when were you thinking if starting from? And geared or SS...?

So having failed to get out of bed today, going to do a run to canterbury via whitstable tomorrow, if anyone fancies it. Will be on a geared roadie- but going gently-, will be following the herne bay ride route, will get lost, and will be leaving from central around 10ish.

I thought you meant an actual run before reading the "geared roadie" part.

Well, if you don't mind lending me your knees..... :D

I'm going out on Sunday to Lindfield via Turner's Hill if anybody wants to join. I'll be stopping in Lindfield for a pint and to deliver a book, then riding back. Either stop with or head onwards to Brighton to do your own t'ing. Leaving from Clapham at 9am, I will be fixed. 35 miles each way.

Anyone fancy a spin in the countryside tomorrow, leaving 10amish from East, or anywhere else really. 70+ km at around 26kph. No idea where I'm going, Essex, Cambridge, Brighton, who knows. If all else fails it'll be Richmond again...
