England : London Sunday London ride

[HaloJ]

Well it's listing Duvel as a sponsor and Duvel is never, ever, ever cheap!!! Organise your mortgages now though, cos it is very, very nice (and around 8%)

Spectating is free according to the blurb.

We don't have to hang around to watch the races, but it's still a good destination for a Sunday ride with different stuff to look at.

 

[Becs]

some other cycling buddies of mine are planning to do a relaxing ride from richmond starting about 10 ish - anyone up for joining them?

This Sunday is also your last chance this year for a Thames Path meander...

how far and fast are those Andrij? I feel like I need some proper exercise this weekend!

It's around 50km, but very much a pootling pace - it's mostly share used paths, very little is on roads. on average it takes us at least 8 hours, including lunch and tea stops.

If you want to do this as proper exercise use a heavy bike and fill your panniers with cake and booze. You'll get a good workout and make everyone else happy in the process.

Not the right rugby match tomorrow you mean...

User - my NBMF on CC. I'm thinking of joining you guys tomorrow for my inaugural Sunday London Ride as I will be in Yorkshire next week-end and therefore no cycling.

Meeting some mates at 11am at the tide table cafe in Richmond. Not sure how far/fast but will be pretty relaxed. Can't do hpc as got to go to work first :-(

For anyone in East London and surrounding area Cycling Club Hackney (CCH) does an early risers club ride every Sunday from our club house at Olympus Square, London, E5 8PL.

We ride out at 8am aiming to be back for 11:30am. Usual route via Epping Forest and out into surrounding countryside. The ride is a steady pace for around 45 miles + tea and cake stop (of course). New riders are welcome to turn up and ride - we hope you'll enjoy it enough to want to join the club.

I'll be doing the Richmond ride tomorrow. Not sure how many will be turning up at HPC tomorrow because of Martins big ride today.


If no one else turns up you'll have plenty of time to get down to Richmond and join us.

11am departure from the cafe under the Richmond Bridge, about 30-40 ish miles from what I understand.
