Hi i was after some info on the Happy cheese ride which i think goes from the pub carpark in ashurst.
I believe it's pretty fast @ 21-23 mph ave and i suppose if you get dropped they won't wait for you.
Sounds like a proper hard ride :D
i ride for sotonia so if there's anyone who fancys this or has any info please reply.
Thanks. Rich

    It leaves on the dot at 9.30am.

    It circa 75km loop around the New Forest. It starts off in one group and then splits about 10km in with the faster guys taking in a 2km longer loop up through Nomansland. These guys catch the slower guys and then the pressure is on

    Speed wise - varies. Rolls out until the split circa 30kph. After the split in the slower group circa 35 - 40kph. Once the faster guys catch - 40kph +.

    If you get dropped you ride to the tea point at Beaulieu and regroup. Easy ride back from here. Sometimes the slower group will sit up depending on numbers back but don't count on it.

    I was out with you guys on Sunday. .
