    Clay we do the same route as you did with us the other week but in the dark and usually deep mud, it's good for keeping the fitness through the winter


    I'll look froward to it. will join you tuesday if you guys ride. langdon will be good at night plenty to ride when the dog walkers and park rangers have gone. you just have to miss the doggers!

    That will teach you to ride in the gloom, I rode in lovely sunshine for 2 hours then 30 minutes of gloom in the rain.

    We must have passed somewhere, I noticed Tims wheels in the carpark when I passed at 7:15. :)

    Warley Gap both sides, then Donkey Lane Plantation all at a bit slower pace, then out towards Billericay along tracks and roads.

    Covered 35km in total just taking it easy.

    Shoulder is still not quite there, but seems to be OK when riding if a little creaky. :)

    Fitness, well that's for others to judge. :lol:

    Couldn't get to the crash free card as it was in the backpack, have to find a better place to put it. :oops:

    Went for a short 70 minute ride around Thorndon yesterday in the rain, covered 20k in quite slippy muddy conditions.

    It was very enjoyable. :D

    The weather over Thorndon was filthy last night, I came back filthy, the bike was filthy and my brain was filthy thinking of Kelly Brook on the London Sky Ride I did on Sunday. :lol:

    It was rather slippy with all that water on the hard packed clay and stones, but a very enjoyable ride.

    Bloody hell. It's a bit hardcore. I've just spent the last 30 mins looking at people falling off!

    In other news, I just read in the local paper that the MD of Brentwood Karting is planning to turn Warley Gap into a laser tag game arena. WTF?
