Night ride to Brighton - Saturday (1am) 8th August

Postby Alex S » Thu Aug 06, 2009 10:13 am

Who else can we pursuade to come down with us for this epic journey of bright lights and shiny things?

A lot of people said yes a month ago but some confirmation would be nice.

Alex,

I texted Marky Mark this week and he replied saying he can't make it.

So far it's :-

Andy K
Alex S
Robh

Meeting point is by the Texaco Garage @ 1am which is on Gatton Park Road, Redhill (the road that takes you up the three steps headings towards Reigate).

Last minute plea for any other takers???

At the moment it looks like its just the three of us - it would be better with just a few more :P

Weather looks as if it going to be OK so there must be some others up for a 4:30am breakfast on the seafront....

There was a time when the roadies in the club thought we mountain bikers were loonies to go out riding a night!!

I'm not around but it sounds like fun, would like to do it sometime.

Thanks to Rob , Alex & Tom for an excellent ride and to Rob in particular for sorting out the route - really enjoyed it!

The roads were good and the weather perfect for the ride :P

Photos were not quite so good :roll: ...but just to prove we did make it....
