Sunday Ride 9th Jan

There was originally a Reliability Ride this Sunday, which has now moved date. I'll be doing a ride as mentioned in the Reliability Rides thread in the Sportives section, details below.

[quote]Meet 9.30am at The Swan in West Wickham (end of High St. where Corkscrew Hill comes up to and the A214 from the other side) for a 60ish mile ride in some great lanes, very quiet and best suited to wintery tyres not lightweight racing ones, 18s CR minimum standard of rider but happy with a number of hills within the 60 miles and the pace not slacking towards the end, "Andrew G's Sunday Rules" so no waiting apart from the odd hill regroup if it's a tougher one, and if you don't know the Kent/Surrey borders and North Downs area either bring a map or have enough common sense to follow road signs home if required. No cafe stop so bring food and drink.

Might join you on that; I need to burn off some of the Xmas calories.

Forecast is for heavy rain about CR time tomorrow. If it's heavy enough to make visibility/getting out of bed a problem then I might join you Sunday.

Don't worry Binky contis should be okay as they have decent puncture protection, it's just that there are some narrow lanes that at this time of year can be a bit strewn with twigs, gravel, thorns and the like.

Cheers, Bunty. Just been outside, hard frost everywhere and my roads are like ice rinks. Going to bail am afraid. Have fun and be safe.
