MTB Ride to Bec Hill Climb - Sun 11 Oct

Postby higg » Sat Oct 03, 2009 5:38 pm

There will be an MTB ride from East Croydon station (taxi rank) on Sun 11 Oct, meeting at 10am, leaving soon after. :wink:

The route will visit the Bec CC Hill Climb to sample the atmosphere of this unique event, eat cake and drink tea. For those that don't know the hill climb tradition this will give you an idea.

http://www.londoncyclesport.com/News/Al ... _2009.html

The rough plan is to get there around 1.30-2.00 hang around for a bit and then head back to Croydon. More details later.


Aodan.

Are ACC riders taking part? are we going in yellows to support or just in typical undercover MTB dress?

[quote="sonic909"]Are ACC riders taking part?

Yes. Sylv and I definitely, I'd expect at least a couple of others at least to sign up for the suffering and ego stroking. I'll post a list of riders once I get a start sheet, same for the Catford one as a few folk normally ride/drive over to watch that one in the morning too.

Driving Carl. I'm doing both Brighton Mitre ones the previous day too and although the races are very short they are such an all out effort it isn't wise to ride to and from them as well...as I discovered last year.

If you need a lift I can help out, I'll be popping home to put my legs up between races but you're welcome to come back for a cuppa in between.
