It's in on Sharpenhoe Road between Sharpenhoe and Streatley, Bedfordshire. Apparently it's only 400m and the winning time last year was 2.15. Tim or Stef - where does it start and end on the hill?
-
Thanks, signed up. What is the overall points position of the Interclub series and how close are we to 1st?
-
I will meet you guys in Wallington and will peel off after Hexton.
-
Signed up. They have a team competition, need a minimum of 3 riders!
-
Robbie, if possible can you stick in the club and inter hill climbs on the route, for some practice? And to size up the competition!
-
Eventful sums it up. Paul & Nathan, hope you're both ok and there is no severe damage to the bikes. Drivers yet again causing problems. Apologies all for navigation problems and bottle clumsiness, will quite gladly pass all responsibilities to …

That was me James, although i don't recall being overtaken, never by a MTB! I'd already been up and down that hill 3 times and was going to call it a night, but then when you guys appeared i decided to give it another go, and chasing you guys up tha…

Tim, what is the policy on cutting corners, referring to the sharp right turn at the top of the hill?
-
Even better is posting in the original thread (sorry couldn't resist!)

A number of people want to do a longer pacey Saturday ride, hence the number of threads. Robbie's thread was relating to the following Saturday (22nd) and every Saturday thereafter, that should be the default regular longer ride to avoid future conf…

Definitely, see you there. Will it loop clockwise so heading back to Ashwell near Shepreth/Meldreth/Fowlmere etc? If so I'll cycle over to Ashwell and take a shortcut home.
-
Cheers. It's a decent site and lists the major ones, but does miss three listed above. I've added some above from that.
-
I'm keen to get some longer rides in. So i know what I'm letting myself in for, what is the intended medium pace? And will the route be stated beforehand so i can tag on if it passes nearby?
-
Cheers Tim, that makes it a three climb challenge with the Club and Inter the weeks before, and they would be great training for this monster.

Thanks for making us aware of these, I might do the Evans Epping Sportive. I also might do the HFT Ugley Ride on the 30th September and the Emmitremus ride on the 28th October from Stevenage.
-
To summarise in the style of a celebrity's family pub we passed nearby, that ride was Pukka! Thanks David for taking my suggestion onboard and all those that rode it. Even though we seemed in the arse end of nowehere, there was a route followed! Gr…

I have three options for the above route, the original 53 miles, shorter 48 miles or shortest 38 miles, so everyone is catered for! Time to warm up those legs, cold this morning.
-
Was out riding around Great Chishill/Chrishall tonight and there are some awesome hills around there that might be worth considering. Yes it's not on Ashwell's doorstep but they are different to what i imagine everyone has ridden around Ashwell. New…
-
Has this been decided yet? And when will the start time be?
-
Those Bedfordshire roads managed to knock nearly everything possible off my bike, I'm lucky to have any of my cycle computer left! Good though nonetheless.
-
Great ride, some pacey bits in between the hills. Save Wallington for next time!
-
Long steep hills on the hottest day of the year? Sounds a great idea, i'll be there!
-
Would the captain consider plotting his chart, or just the destination point, before the voyage on future trips? Missed you guys by a few minutes and after asking everyone out on a morning stroll i managed to get the to the Meldreth crossroads befor…

This gives you a good idea, but not until 2014: http://www.visitleevalley.org.uk/en/content/cms/london2012/velo-park
-
What time does it all finish? I fancy popping down just to see what goes on, but won't get down there until 11am.
-
Thanks Tim, as slight as it is can i claim a PB by 3 seconds!
-
Beware of steep waves cresting in Elmdon, the second mate doesn't like those... My maiden voyage was an enjoyable one, ill be sailing again in two weeks.
-
Enjoyable first official run, wind on the way out was probably preferable to it being against us on the way in!

I'm dropping in my membership form tomorrow, am i ok to turn up for tomorrow's run?
