Thanks Robbie. See you Thurs.

Nice one Geoff. I spent the day resting...

Sounds good. What the GD route? And where's the lunch stop Shaun

You might be on your own on that one, Geoff, as it's forecast to be peeing down most of the day with gale force winds!
-
Yep.
-
Enjoyed it. (Sort of).

Should be there. Shaun

"So with stretched chain , worn rear block and broken cable I know what my Christmas present will be :-)" A lesson in bike maintenance?

Five started the 9.00am ride too. We took a beefy snow shower out near Moggerhanger and that had us cycling on white roads for a while, but as you say, conditions weren't bad at all. It had even warmed up a bit by the time I got home...
-
Should be there. See you later. Shaun

I had a good chat with Doug when I was riding with him while we were off the back. He's hoping to do a sportive next year and is going to do some training for it during the winter, so he does have the motivation to come back for another go at our clu…

Skelders I'm coming to Portugal too! I've sent you an email... Shaun

Nice ride. Fairly steady pace, but bearable.
-
Does Kit = Skelders? If so, Skelders, can you bring along that CCA kit you wanted to put my way? I'll be over for a beer on Tues... Shaun
-
Enjoyed it. It was good having the frequent rotation and getting to chat to everybody. The nice weather continues. I've done over 1,000 miles in October. What is going on? Shaun
-
Fantastic ride today! mickg, skelders, Newbienige and sbseven gelled nicely for a steady ride of just over 100 miles at 16¼mph with some Chiltern hills throw in for good measure. Perfect blue skies (once the early morning fog had been quickly burned…
-
skelders, are you still in?
-
Probably best to stick to 8am, Nigel. Saw Mick on Wednesday, we're both assuming that it's an 8am start... Scouse....NO! Shaun
-
One further method is by calculation. See here. Method 3 could be a bit dodgy if you've got a rear derailleur with those extra large jockey wheels. It would probably need a further extra link. I've tended to use method 2 on a new build because it w…

I've created a banging 100 mile route, based on Mick's ideas! You can view it here:

It's just about 100 miles dead - Ashwell to Ashwell! There are three serious lumps between 50… -
Cross posted at the same time as your route! Your route is good and pretty similar...
-
So how about Ashwell to Woburn 30 miles. Coffee stop?
Then head south via Eaton Bray, Ivinghoe etc, for a few Chiltern Hills. Followed by a lunch stop (Ashridge cafe (outdoors) or Marsworth cafe (indoors)??) - 35 miles.
Back… -
I can do a GPS route for my 705, if you tell me roughly where we want to go...
-
I often use this rough route to get across to the Chilterns going SE of Luton: Baldock, Preston, Bendish, Hyde, Kinsborne Green, Markgate. About 26 miles Ashwell to Markgate.
It's about the shortest way and lanes all the way (but a bit … -
Sunset at 5.42pm on Friday. It might work if we can pick Mick up on the way...we're heading SW...

Sounds good Mick. I'll see if I can free my day. Shaun
Here's my list of cafes in the area: ;)

" happy birthday, happy birthday, in a hot bath". ????
Altered Images.
See you all tomorrow, Shaun -
I'm planning to be out tomorrow as well. As is Chris I think?
I'm flexible. Probably doing four hours and including some lunch at some point. Could fit around 11 at 3 Ts OK...

Another vote for Michelin Krylions (available in both 23c/25c). I use PR3s during the summer and have just swapped back to Krylions. TBH, there's not that much of a difference regarding tyre feel and rolling resistance between the two. There is a dif…
