7am at Trinity RAB
7:15 at The Swan in West Wickham
7:30 leave The Swan

I know it's overly generous times to get from one place to the other but it'll factor in any punctures or problems. We'll probably get to the HQ about 8ish and they say the sign on will be open from 8:15 so we should be at the front of the queue. This will allow us a coffee before we start and mean we won't have to hang about in line in cleats, you might even get to use the toilet before you have to send a canary in first.

Yes, sign on and paying is only on the day. This is run as a Reliability Trial, not branded as a sportive, but has the added advantage of signage (fingers crossed they haven't been nicked between today (when t'other Mr. Green is putting them up) and Sunday.

Snoop - Do you want me to tuck the big SIS bottle in my jersey? Although I warn you I'm not carrying it around with me so you'll need to take it at the HQ.

At the end of that road where it meets Shirley Road. Coming from Croydon you'll see a golf club on your right near the end (just before the RAB), just after that is the entrance to Trinity School, we'll meet there.

Alternatively for you Sean you could drop down to Elmers End, turn right by the Tesco and keep going all the way to Ashburton Park in Addiscombe, then turn left up Shirley Road and go up there to Trinity RAB - saves you doing pointless miles in to Croydon. Route from the end of Penge Hight Street [url=http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1609582]here[/url]. :D
