I fully admit I'm a southern softie...
-
Looking tight, there might be snow Friday night. If the roads are OK I'll be out, otherwise I'm holding off til Sunday. I'm glad this cold spell is coming to an end, it's been doing my head in.

From the HHH website: NOTE: DUE TO THE CURRENT WEATHER MAKING ROAD CONDITIONS DIFFICULT ESPECIALLY FOR THE CLIMBS OF BISON HILL AND ASTON HILL WE ARE LIKELY TO ONLY RUN THE SHORTER 55KM ROUTE ...and even that's being rather optimistic.

Any number of CCA riders can enter online until the event has sold out. The first 15 CCA riders that enter online will take our guaranteed places. So to answer your question, you'll only miss out if at least 15 CCA riders have entered before the end…

I emailed Eddie with our team registration a few days ago but I've not received a reply so far... Nevertheless, the team name is Cycle Club Ashwell. Put that in both the Team Name and Club Name fields when you enter. Adding the team name to your o…

Could be interested. Will there be a cafe stop?
-
Note that the HHH is just the first of six "Chiltern Classics" reliability trails over consecutive Sundays. All go into the Chilterns but use different roads. All are 100km. So there are other chances to do a ride in the Chilterns if anybody's not co…

The weather is looking iffy right thru to the end of the week. The organisers will be assessing the ice risk nearer the time, I'd expect. Maybe it will be OK. I think somebody told me parking might be limited around the HQ? Is that correct? Where t…

Fix your post Robbie. Cam took a whole new bike from the team car... Enjoyed the ride. Thanks everyone.
-
Fancy the CCA club run idea more than the actual event. Could be a great weekend away! We could go during the SUMMER as well.
-
Should be there. Maybe we can get a coffee at Whitwell, then?
-
15+ riders out today. We found a dry and sunny morning in between the rain bands. Nice. Aimed to arrive at the cafe for opening time, 11am. Rolled up 11.01. Not bad. Thanks everyone. Enjoy the rest of your holidays.
-
Just to confirm, we'll be meeting at the Tuns (not Bob's) for 9:30am. Aiming to be at Danish Camp for 11am, just as it opens...
-
I expect there will be several rides going out on Boxing Day. I've just put up a proposal for a cafe ride out to Danish Camp, 40m @ 16s...

Puncture fairy: I'm bored, Shaun. Do you know where I can find Pearce? Shaun: Yes I do. (S whispers into PF's ear...) Puncture fairy: Thanks.
-
Nearly a dozen out on a pretty good day, weatherwise, for December. As Tim mentions, a few false starts early doors (hope to see you again Graham - it happens to us all...) but everything was nice and tidy after Langford. Some less travelled roads ar…

We are going down the hill. Route is here: http://bikeroutetoaster.com/Course.aspx?course=485124

Double header next year: LEL and 24heuresvelo...

Gonna be there. Want to be back in Ashwell for around 12.30pm. I've got a nearly 50m route in mind: Potton, Abbotsley, St Neots, Blunham, Willington (Danish Camp Cafe), Cardington and back.
-
Here's a possible route on reasonably wide roads. 65 miles, cafe @ Bourn 42 miles, pretty flat: Wrestingworth, Gamlingay, Eltisley, Papworth Everard, Boxworth, Over, Longstanton, Oakington, Dry Drayton, Bourn and home http://bikeroutetoaster.com/Co…
-
Should be out. Note, there was a bit of black ice about early this morning... so might need a big roads route for tomorrow.
-
Nice write-up, Martin! Another CCA classic. Although I believe I made the correct decision (a long time ago) NOT to ride to Belgium during late November, I'm a bit sad I didn't get to experience the highs and lows of your journey. Grand Chapeau to y…

The Ghent Riders were in good spirits this morning. A couple of them seemed to be nursing hangovers already! Jane, Alistair and myself accompanied them as far as Much Hadham. After which we turned around and got blown home! Good luck guys, that's …
-
No mate. I'll just come out for a couple of hours
-
Looks like this event is going to be very popular! Note that the ballot will close at 75,000 applicants.
-
Hoping to ride out with you for a bit. Is it still 7.30am at the Tuns?
-
Always good riding in the Chilterns. I should be there, too.
-
Apologies for not making it out this morning. I've got a touch of gastro... Boo hoo. Such a lovely day, too. Hope you all had a good ride.
-
Will, the GD (Geoff Denny) route nevers gets that far from Ashwell. Assuming Robbie is following this route (http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/2430835) clockwise down to Cardington and Blunham, you could turn off after Everton Hill, perhaps? This …

Got a 60m route, SE direction - Buntingford, Elsenham, Saffron Walden, Heydon, Barkway Rain coming in at some point... wonna start 8.30am?
