The public transport system is ridiculous, but if you are planning to tour using it then picking an individual rail line or touring between rail lines is a good compromise. You can guarantee that the journeys then won't involve changes and even if you get mucked around with cancellations etc, it jus...

On the subject of accomodation costs, there are a few other options that might be worth looking at. Obviously, if you happen to have friends dispersed around the country, riding between their houses makes for a cheap and very pleasant trip! If you don't happen to have such a network of friends, or y...

Helen

I am free and happy to help in any role provided there's a full explanation of how to do it! I'll put it in my calendar but I am unlikely to check the forum (sorry!) so please whatsapp me if you need to contact me.

Not cycling, but mountain running and a really good read regardless: Solo by Jenny Tough. Jenny's account of running a mountain range on each continent solo and unsupported. It's not really about running, it's about all the highs and lows of the expeditions, the people she met along the way and the ...

Helen

Just to check, is this on Sunday 19th or Saturday 18th?

Helen

Thanks George, it was a lovely ride!

Helen

Yes, that's fine.

Helen

I'll join Noel's splinter group please!

Helen

I'm interested but the bank holiday weekend makes it harder for me so I can't commit at the moment. Not sure on plans for hols next year yet but likely to try and use as many as the BH weekends as I can to spread my leave further.

Helen

Is this one night or 2?

Helen

Thanks Mick, was a fun day out

Helen

Me plz

Helen

Bailing, sorry.

Helen

I'll join the B, as long as there are other people to ride with. If no one else signs up I'll probs bail.

Helen

Also would like to know what you mean by the A/B riders thing. Enjoyed the ride we did last time and would like to join you for more of them but defo not a B rider on my gravel bike.

Helen

The route is ~50km and relatively flat (ish). I can't link you to it as I've lost the original.

Helen

6:30 outside Northfield Cycles (across the road from the Black Horse). Sign up here!

Helen

Hi George - I'm considering coming along but will be a last minute addition if I do - other plans dependent... I'm happy to ride however many hills you want though!

Helen

Great read, thanks for sharing.

... Does everyone else not carry spare bolts?

Helen

I'm in

Helen

Doesn't look like there are any Cs again so I'm going to drop out and do my own thing. Hope you all have a lovely ride.

Helen

I'll do the C

Helen

C please

Helen

Very happy to change the route to incorporate any rough stuff we can find

Helen

I've got a 3 person light weight tent you could borrow if you'd like a bit more room. 1 person tents are really really tiny!

Helen

C please
