It was a bit quieter then usual this morning, due to other race meetings today.
But still quite a few riders showed up on a chillier September morn...

I joined the 17 mph group, and after a few miles, just past Reigate, I had to use my slaloming skills
to avoid a lady who decided to cross the road

As I tried to move right, she moved right too, moved left and she did the same...Think I may have
missed her by 2 inches!!! Anyway the group was going on at 17 mph with some accelerations up to 22 mph, then an exciting bit downhill
at 35 mph, and in the end a quick sprint towards the cafe in Charlwood.
Nice cuppa tea and cake then...
