[quote="Andrew G"]I'm also planning on going out there (probably on Sunday 9th) for a ride round.

yup sounds grand. I ride over from Oxted so should be able to link up on the way over.

Not feeling up to the club run this saturday - still nursing the wounds from last week, getting over my cold and I've got the Surrey Rumble on Sunday so I thought I'd take a leisurely loop around it on Saturday morning too.

There's a few very good ones off the route around too! :)

Make sure you're ready to Rumble in best Ant and Dec stylee.

Did you mean Sunday, I'll be doing the CR on the Saturday (8th) and do this on the Sunday (9th). I'll stick a post up near the end of next week so we can sort out a time and see if anyone else is up for it ( :shock: ).

now you're confusing me. :)
I'm going to do it this saturday as well, but just to stretch my legs before sunday since I don't feel up to the club run... oh and it clashes with some school open-day-thingie.
then I'll try and do it a bit quicker next sunday after the club run. there clear as mud.

oh dear. oh deary deary dear. OK did it this morning. :(
I think I'm a little off the pace! :oops: (too embarrassed to say exactly how fast, er, slow), although I do have my excuses ready.

was rather windy. (at one point a crosswind blew me from secondary to primary position)
hence there were bits of wood and twigs all over the road.
and it was wet.
especially on the corners under the trees.
oh and I've still got a horrible cold.
