Welcome to the forum
Saturday 20th May 9.30am club ride
Was going to suggest a reverse of the excellent 'new roads' ride we did a couple of weeks ago, but recon the roads around Watton/Sacome might be a bit gritty/flinty after the last couple of days, so might postpone that till next week.
So how about either Stewartby
http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/727420041 (or something similar to this !)
Ashwell-Haynes-Maulden-Ampthill-Stewartby-Old Warden-Broom-langford-Ashwell (50miles)
or the slightly less in distance flat n'fast Yelling route
Ashwell-Everton-Yelling-Waresly-Potton-Edworth-Ashwell (41 miles)

Decide in the morning, see you then

Thanks DavidJ & everyone else. Tough going towards the end but really enjoyable.
Relive the fun below:

One of the little black clouds we had skilfully been avoiding had clearly being having fun as the roads around Northhill were soaked, but luckily he had moved on somewhere else when we got there. Just so we didn't cross his path, we headed out towards Broom & back in the way we came. Almost got the sign sprint too, but Tim was just a bit too quick......
So 51 miles @ 17.5 & no rain Thanks all for a good ride, enjoyed that !
David and Paul dropped off after Croydon to get home early, leaving Martin W, myself and Peter from Letchworth for a 5 mile headwind TT back to Ashwell. Martin did sterling work on the front and bought me a coffee back at Rhubarb!
Cheers chaps for a good ride
