Apologies all, especially @13 rider

Hopefully I am not too late for 2024, I did manage one qualifying ride for Jan but have had very little time for cycling so far this year due to work and visiting family in UK. Will be pushed to complete one for Feb but will do my best.

13 Jan - 53.65km (https://www.strava.com/activities/10546815777)

Wanted to ride without traffic. Not ideal doubling back on oneself but with 50% traffic free (The Greenway) and mostof the rest light traffic it’s a nice bit of riding in East London 50kms

Club run out to Navestock and popped into the City after, for a spot of voluntary gardening. 83kms
