RPCC - 15 or 16 May

Another weekend, another RPCC ride... usual rules would apply:
    Anyone is welcome to attend Will average somewhere between 16-18 mph No one gets dropped and we'll regroup at the top of hills Tea and cake stop - probably at the top of Box Hill
I can do either Saturday or Sunday, with a slight preference for Saturday and getting out early again.

In terms of route I'd be interested in something like last weekend - 65 miles / 110 km and 4 or 5 decent climbs

What are other people's plans / preferences?

    Saturday at 8 is good for me. Looking forward to hopefully no drizzle and wet feet unlike last weekend!

    Saturday at 8 is good for me - like Berns looking forward to a drier warmer one, we weren't warm when we got to Box hill last time!

    110km 4 or 5 climbs sounds good. I may not be swift but I need the practice with the Pearson 150 the following weekend...

    Hi chaps - I may join you guys tomorrow if I can get up in time for the 8am start.

    Haven't done a RPCC run in ages.

    No show for me as well I'm afraid - I'm on baby sitting duties. To be honest, I could do with a break anyway. Worked out today that I've ridden 180 miles with 9,500ft of climbing in the last week (including Sunday's ride).

    I think I bonked on tonight's commute :lol:

    Enjoy the ride!

    Hi guys - A rare weekend off for me, so I was hoping to head out tomorrow (Sunday). Not sure if you went out for the ride today? If so never mind, hopefully see you soon. If not would be well up for a ride tomorrow.

    Hi Mark, sorry you couldn't make it yesterday for what was an excellent ride (thanks everyone). Hope you made it out today and dodged the showers - hope to see you out at the RPCC soon.

    Btw, yesterday's Garmin log for those who are interested or don't have their own:

    Thanks for the ride guys. Really enjoyable, and good to see everyone again. Also had some good couch time watching the Giro - hell that looked tough, and I'm glad there isnt any strade bianche near here!

    Thanks Bongolian. Good to hear from you mate and thanks for the route.

    Shame to miss you guys on Saturday. sounded like a top ride. I have definitely been keeping an eye on the threads but work and baby commitments are making it a bit of a nightmare at the mo'. Made it out for a lovely ride into Surrey today though 75 miles all in and a really good pace too. Legs are definitely feeling it, but a great ride.

    Will definitely head out again on an RPCC jaunt as soon as I can. I miss 'em.

    Thanks again and see you soon.

    Johnny - some of us will certainly be out. A new post will probably go up tomorrow Thursday and will post a link in this thread too.

    I'm up for an early spin on Saturday morning, but will have to be back reasonably sharpish so may well split the group if everyone else I'd up for a longer one...

    I'll start a new thread
