I can't do it this year but there's normally a meet at CSS and ride over via Chipstead Valley. It makes a good day's ride and the Hilly 50 route is a cracker...but hard. If you lose the ACC riders you start with then there's always loads of nice folk going round the course at a complete range of speeds so you always have some agreeable company.
It's always funny before the start as folk want to make a call of nature. With Ryka's being a biker cafe when you go to the loo you get the very amusing site on Hilly 50 day of a queue of men alternating leathers, lycra, leathers, lycra
