So, who's up for a bit of a reunion. I'm potentially free on either Saturday or Sunday and would be up for a reasonable paced, 50 miler through the Surrey Hills.

It looks like there's already a bit of interest starting on another thread http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12678058, so maybe we can combine the two.

Whaddyathink? I'd be up for an early start - 8.00 or 8.30.

    Hey London-Red,

    I am up for it!! I'll send you a pm, either ways would work for me, Saturday seems to be warmer but Sunday more stable.

    Cheers,

    Hey BCSS - good one, we have a peloton!

    On reflection, I'm better for Sunday. As long as the weather holds, shall we go for 8.30?

    Anyone else?

    Thanks Roland - replied via PM.

    Anyone else thinking of popping along, just to clarify that reasonable paced means just that - reasonable. We don't drop people on these rides...

    despite ice, wind (and fire), which even made self-proclaimed 'Pros' turn around we made it out to box hill and were rewarded by awesome weather and a stunning ride

    made 50 miles at c.15mph (though average is a bit screwed due to missing autostop) with c.3,200ft of elevation gain, so a good 4 hours on the road with a 20min break on top of box hill

    david, was a pleasure, any time again! And hope to have some more folks with us next time

    Cheers Roland - a cracking ride today. I enjoyed every bit of it , even the walking - which I'm sure skewed the average speed a bit ;-)

    As for the self-proclaimed pros... Wimps.

    Thanks for the note Phips - I reckon now the weather's come back we'll get a few regulars coming along again.
