Anyone fancy a quick 50/60km jaunt around the lanes of Cobham tomorrow morning (Sunday)?

Rough itinery would be meet Waterloo for 0857 arr cobham 0946. Follow route for a couple of hours return on choice of 1208 or 1308 depending on how anyone feels.

Fairly quick paced ride but lanes are supposed to be really good

Text me if have any questions as I am out tonight and will not get to PC till late

Would have.
But the words "quick paced jaunt" kinda scared me off. I don't feel that fast on my bike atm. Even after you so kindly tuned the derailleur.

Will be fast asleep at both 0857 and 0946 after 2 exhausting days. Might consider Mon though.....

OK, cancelled tomorrow. Lets do this Monday.

The route is that used by SWRC for their May Cyclosportive and is supposed to be awesome country lanes (think I posted this somewhere before!)

If you can access Bikely, the route is here and although in full its 140km, there are cut off points which we can use to reduce the loop.

Plenty of trains
    Depart   08:03   08:33   09:03   09:33   10:03  
    Arrive   08:41   09:11   09:41   10:11   10:41  


Return fare £7.30 but if four of us get group save we only pay for two Smile

Let me know best time for everyone to meet. Personally would prefer earlier so 8.33 or 9.03

9.03 it is then.

I suggest we meet at the station, main ticket office at 8.45 latest in order to get tickets (group save if possible)

Sol is going to pick us up either at Surbiton or Cobham (Sol?)

Enjoyed that. My knees were ok which is also a bonus. 72km in total for me, including cycling to and from Waterloo.
