FNRttC Friday Night Ride to the Coast - Brighton 14th October 2011

[mmmmartin]

I'll probably be riding home

I might as well, in which case a £3.90 train tivket to London will be up for grabs. It depends on how knackered I feel, and whether I've sat in the sun while enjoying a Massive Fat Boy Breakfast with Extra Things

As per my sig below. myself and Martint235 (& perhaps some others) will be cycling back.. via Crawley & Croydon you are more then welcome to join us.

With a target of around 1pm - 2pm although we always have to bear in mind the Allsopp Quotient but I think that only applies if he's actually with us.

Thanks for the offer, but I was thinking a bit speedier than I could manage on the bike. I hope to be back in East London and tucked up in bed no later than noon. Need to get some sleep before heading up to Bishops Stortford for a party that evening then getting back to London to lead a ride Sunday morning.

10.49 train to victoria with bike reservation for £3 .70 goes to Andrij if I am riding home with davej. if. if. forecast is good though and i really want to ride home as it is a beautiful ride that makes me feel good to be alive. just like being at work (just in case someone from the office is reading this). honest.

that might be too late for Andrij having just read his post. if he wants the ticket is it his.

And I believe we have coffee at Ditchling. Negotiations with Mrs hatler have been successful and she will be joining us in Streat, complete with a flask or two of coffee.

Enjoy tonight everyone. Shame I won't be there. Have fun!

... Tecs - look out for a little newt standing at the side of the road crying ...

Me too although only 5 miles for me.

So, you'll also be crying, but for 5 miles?

 

[Flying Dodo]

Have fun everyone, but wrap up warm. Out here in the sticks it got quite cold overnight, and for the first time in over 6 months, for my rural commute this morning, I wore leggings rather than my usual shorts.

I reckon this time (unlike the Martlets ride) you'll have a spectacular view over Ditchling, with mist patches in the fields below and a glorious golden red sun rising in a clear sky.

 

[Andrij]

Having checked the forecasts, I think I'll be leaving the sandals at home tonight.
